To connect the data link:
1. Power all devices off.
2. If you intend to use a DMX controller, run a data cable from the DMX
controller's data output to the first fixture's data IN socket. If the
controller has a 5-pin output, use a 5-pin male to 3-pin female adaptor
cable (P/N 11820005).
3. If you intend to run fixtures in master/slave operation, insert a female
DMX termination plug (P/N 91613018) in the first fixture's data IN
socket.
4. Plug a data cable into the OUT socket of the first fixture and the IN
socket of the next one. Continue connecting up to 32 Mania EFXs
output-to-input.
5. Terminate the link by inserting a male termination plug (P/N 91613017)
into the data output of the last fixture. A termination plug is simply an
XLR connector with a 120 Ohm, 0.25 W resistor soldered across pins 2
and 3.
