Installation
The Colorist™

be linked using
DMX cable in a
daisy chain (serial)
fashion. To comply with
the EIA-485 standard, no
more than 32 products
should be connected on
one daisy chain without
using a DMX optically
isolated splitter. Doing
otherwise may result in
deterioration of the digital
DMX signal.
USITT
recommends
limiting the total
length of the DMX cable
(from the first
product/controller to the
last product) to 300–455
m (985–1,500 ft).
To connnect the
Colorist™ Panel
36Qa to your
DMX network, it is
necessary to use the
3-pin to 5-pin adapters
supplied with this product.
When not using
the Power
Output, DMX
Input or DMX Output
connectors, you must seal
the cable ends with the
supplied caps.
