    DMX-512 Background DMX-512 is a digital data transmission standard developed by the United States Institute for Theater Technology (USITT). It is designed to enable control of lighting equipment, originally dimmers. DMX deals solely with the formatting of data for transmission and does not dictate how the data is created or used.
  • Page 17: Data Link Dmx-512

    Data Link DMX-512 For data, this fixture uses XLR (Cannon) type connectors and shielded twisted pair cable approved for EIA-422/EIA485 use. Fixtures are connected in Daisy Chain topography with only one data source and no branching. Systems using 3 or 5 pin DMX interfaces can be accommodated by purchasing 3-to-5 pin adapters or building adapter cables.
