5. Setup

5.1. Warnings and Precautions

Attention
Connect all data cables before supplying power.
Disconnect power supply before connecting or disconnecting data cables.

5.2. DMX Connection

5.2.1. DMX-512 Protocol

You need a DMX serial data link to run light shows of one or more devices using a DMX-512 controller or
to run synchronized shows of two or more devices set in a master/slave operating mode.

The Pixel Controller has 3-pin and 5-pin DMX signal IN and OUT connectors.

The pin assignment is as follows:

● 3-pin: pin 1 (ground), pin 2 (-), pin 3 (+)

● 5-pin: pin 1 (ground), pin 2 (-), pin 3 (+), pin 4 (N/C), pin 5 (N/C)

Devices on a serial data link must be daisy-chained in a single line. The number of devices that you can
control on one data link is limited by the combined number of the DMX channels of the connected
devices and the 512 channels available in one DMX universe.

To comply with the TIA-485 standard, no more than 32 devices should be connected on one data link.
In order to connect more than 32 devices on one data link, you must use a DMX optically isolated
splitter/booster, otherwise this may result in deterioration of the DMX signal.

Note:

● Maximum recommended DMX data link distance: 300 m

● Maximum recommended number of devices on a DMX data link: 32 devices

15

Pixel Controller
Product code: 44510

5.2.2. DMX Cables

Shielded twisted-pair cables with 3-pin/5-pin XLR connectors must be used for reliable DMX connection.
You can purchase DMX cables directly from your Highlite International dealer or make your own cables.

If you use XLR audio cables for DMX data transmission, this may lead to signal degradation and unreliable
operation of the DMX network.

When you make your own DMX cables, make sure that you connect the pins and wires correctly as
shown in Fig. 07.

Fig. 07

16

Pixel Controller
Product code: 44510

5.2.3. Master/Slave Setup

The Pixel Controller supports master/slave control mode. You can connect the Pixelstrip 20/40 (max. 4 m
per output), Pixeltube 16/32 (max. 5 m per output) or PixelDots (max. 40 devices per output) to the Pixel
Controller. In the example below, the Pixelstrip 40 is connected to the Pixel Controller.

To connect multiple devices in master/slave setup, follow the steps below:

Connect the first device’s DMX OUT connector to the second device’s DMX IN connector with a 3-

pin/5-pin DMX cable.

Repeat step 1 to connect all devices as shown in Fig. 08.
Connect a DMX terminator (120 Ω resistor) to the DMX OUT connector of the last device in the setup.
Set the first device on the data link as a master device. See 6.6.3.6. Slave on page 30 for more

information.

Set the remaining devices as slave devices. See 6.6.3.6. Slave on page 30 for more information.

5.2.5. DMX Addressing

In a setup with multiple devices, make sure that you set the DMX starting address of each device
correctly. The Pixel Controller has many different personalities, depending on what device is connected
to it: Pixelstrip, Pixeltube or PixelDot. For example, if you want to connect multiple Pixel Controllers on one
data link and use them in 7-channel mode, follow the steps below:

Set the starting address of the 1

st

device on the data link to 1 (001).

Set the starting address of the 2

nd

device on the data link to 8 (008), as 1 + 7 = 8.

Set the starting address of the 3

rd

device on the data link to 15 (015) as 8 + 7 = 15.

Continue assigning the starting addresses of the remaining devices by adding each time 7 to the

previous number.

Make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each Pixel Controller
correctly. If two or more devices are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.

5.3. Ethernet Connection

Attention
Connect all data cables before supplying power.
Disconnect power supply before connecting or disconnecting data cables.

5.3.1. Art-Net and Kling-Net Protocols

Art-Net is a protocol that uses TCP/IP to transfer large amount of DMX-512 data over an Ethernet network.
Art-Net 4 can support up to 32768 universes. Art-Net™ Designed by and Copyright Artistic Licence
Holdings Ltd.
Kling-Net is a protocol that allows the creation of a network of LED devices, which are automatically
configured. Kling-Net is independent of DMX-512 or Art-Net protocols. It uses a standard Ethernet
network.

5.3.2. Network Cables

Standard twisted-pair Ethernet cables (CAT-5/CAT-5E/CAT-6) can be used to connect the device to a
computer or to a lighting controller that supports Art-Net or Kling-Net.

If you make your own network cables, make sure that you connect the pins and wires correctly as shown
in Fig. 10. Use RJ45 (8P8C) connectors and patch the cables according to the T568B color standard.

5.3.6. Universe Numbering

If you want to connect more than 5 devices on one data link and use them in 96-channel mode, you will
need to address them on different universes.

Set the DMX starting address of the first 5 devices. Follow the instructions in 5.2.5. DMX Addressing on

page 18.

Set the universe number of the 6

th

device to 001 and the DMX starting address to 001.

Continue addressing the devices, each time increasing the universe number, after the limit of 512

channels for one universe has been reached.

There are 512 channels (1–512) in one universe. 16 consecutive universes (0–15) make up one sub-net. 16
sub-nets (0–15) make up one net. There are in total 128 nets (0–127).

Note:

● In Art-Net, universes are called Port Address and number from 0 to 32767. There are 32768 unique

numbers. This device supports 256 universes (0–255).

Make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each Pixel Controller
correctly. If two or more devices are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.

Note: If you are using an Art-Net controller that supports Art-Net I or Art-Net II, the Art-Net net

must be set to 0. The net number is available in Art-Net 3 and higher versions of the Art-Net
protocol.
