DMX CONNECTIONS
The FXLD1036C4O has permanent DMX in and DMX out cables. Two DMX adapter cables are also supplied to enable the use of 3 pin XLR connections.
A system using DMX control should be connected as a chain of devices. In other words the control signal cable should proceed from the controller to the first receiving device and then to others in a continuous "daisy chain" fashion. The control cable should NOT be split into a multiple run star arrangement with a cable running from the controller directly to each receiving device.
DMX CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS
There are normally two different connectors used for DMX control. They are both XLR type connectors. Some units use 3 pin connectors. Others use 5 pin connectors. The FXLD1036C4O receives a DMX signal on the 3 pin MALE connector on one side of the unit. The 3 pin FEMALE connector is used to connect the next DMX device on the control chain. If your console uses a 5 pin connector you can make up an adapter cable to convert. The table below shows the pin assignments for BOTH the 3 pin and 5 pin connectors.
The permantly attached DMX in and DMX out cables are not XLR connectors but follow the same pin assignments as 3 pin XLRs.

DMX TERMINATION
A DMX chain should be terminated at the last receiving device on the chain. This is done by installing a commonly available 1/4 Watt, 120 Ohm resistor across the DATA - and DATA + wires at the last device. If you have only a few fixtures very close together and a very short run to the controller then you may be able to operate without the terminator.
OPERATION
A control panel on one side of the unit is used to set the operating options. It consists of an LED display and four buttons
(MENU, UP, DOWN, and ENTER)
