Dimmer Curve Chart - ADJ Dotz Par User Instructions

Dotz Par
Power Supply:
The ADJ Dotz Par contains a automatic voltage
switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into a
power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about the cor-
rect power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere. Always use
the PowerCon cord that came with the unit.
DMX-512:
DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures
and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from
the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that trav-
els from fixture to fixture via the DATA "IN" and DATA "OUT" XLR ter-
minals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA
"OUT" terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of
different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single
controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compli-
ant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several
DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order
in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the
DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1
may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end,
or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address
of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1
to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation):
The Dotz Par can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Dotz Par has
4 DMX Channel Modes. The DMX address is set on the rear panel of the
Dotz Par. Your unit and your DMX controller require a approved DMX-
512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We
recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are
making your own cables, be sure to use standard
110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be
purchased at almost all professional sound and
lighting stores). Your cables should be made with
a male and female XLR connector on either end
of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must
be daisy chained and cannot be split.

With this feature you can connect the fixtures to one another
using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can
be connected is 10 fixtures maximum for 120V, and 22 fixtures
maximum for 230V. After the maximum fixtures has been reached
you will need to use a new power outlet. They must be the same
fixtures. DO NOT mix fixtures.
