5.3 Operation with a DMX controller

DMX is short for Digital Multiplex and means digital
control of multiple DMX units via a common control
line. For operation via a DMX controller (e. g. DMX-
1440 or DMX-510USB from "img Stage Line"), the
spotlight is equipped with 10 DMX control chan-
nels. However, it can, if required, also be controlled
via 5, 4 or 3 channels only. Please refer to chapter
5.3.5 for more information on channel functions
and DMX values.

5.3.1 DMX connection

For DMX connection, 3-pole XLR jacks with the fol-
lowing pin configuration are provided:
Pin 1 = ground, 2 = DMX-, 3 = DMX+
For connection, use special cables for DMX signal
transmission (e. g. cables of the CDMXN series
from "img Stage Line"). For cable lengths exceed-
ing 150 m, it is generally recommended to insert a

again. Use the buttons UP
DMX level matching amplifier (e. g. SR-103DMX
from "img Stage Line").
1) Connect the DMX INPUT (1) to the DMX output
of the light controller or to the DMX output of
another DMX-controlled unit.
2) Connect the DMX OUTPUT (3) to the DMX
input of the following DMX unit. Connect the out-
put of this DMX unit to the input of the following
DMX unit etc. until all DMX-controlled units
have been connected in a chain.
3) To prevent interference in signal transmission,
in case of long cables or a multitude of units
connected in series, terminate the DMX output
of the last DMX unit in the chain with a 120 Ω
resistor (> 0.3 W): Connect a corresponding ter-
minating plug (e. g. DLT-123 from "img Stage
Line") to the DMX output jack.

5.3.2 Setting the number of DMX channels

To operate the spotlight with a light controller, the
DMX start address (
ber of DMX channels must be set. The number of
DMX channels depends on the functions required
and maybe on the number of control channels that
are available at the light controller. Please refer to
chapter 5.3.5 for more information on the functions
that are provided for 3-, 4-, 5- and 10-channel oper-
ation, and select the number of DMX channels
accordingly:
1) Press the button MENU repeatedly until the
highest menu level has been reached (on the
very left in the menu structure on pages 62
and 63).
2) Press the button UP or DOWN repeatedly until
the display indicates
3) Press the button ENTER. The display now indi-
cates the current setting:
