POWER CONNECTIONS
DMX CONNECTIONS
A system using D MX contr ol sh ould be co nnect ed 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 fixture has a DMX IN and a D MX OUT connector to be used to connect the chain. 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 pack.
DMX CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS
There are two different connectors generally used for DMX control. They are both XLR type connectors. Some units use 3 pin connectors. Others use 5 pin connectors. FXLE17C4N onl y has 3 pin connections. DMX is received on th e 3 pin MALE connector o n the back of the unit. T he 3 pin FEMAL E connec tor is us ed to connect to the next DMX device on the control chain.
The table below sho ws the pin assignm ents for the 3 pin DMX cable.
The FXLE17C4N has a blue turn and lock connector for power input. A compat ible power cable is provided for connection to a 120 V AC, 15 Am p, 60Hz, ground ed service. Push the blue co nnector on the c able straight into the blue connector on the unit and twist approx. 1/8 turn clockwise to latch it.

DMX TERMINA TION
It is recommended that a DMX data chain be terminated at the last receiving device on the chain. This is done by installing a commonly available 1/4 Watt, 120 Ohm res istor across the DATA - and DATA + wires at the last device. If you have only a few fixtures installed very close together and with a short run of DMX cable to the controller then you may be able to operate without the terminator .
OPERATION
A power ON/OFF switch is located at the rear of the unit. A display and user interface is located on the back of the unit. This interface is used to set the operating options and s ettings. It consists of an LED display and four buttons (ESC, ENTER, DOWN, and UP).
