Dmx-512 Connection; Control Panel Navigation; General Setup - HQ-Power VDPLP710RGBWB Manual Del Usuario

•
Make sure there is no flammable material within a 0.5 m radius of the device.
•
Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.
•
Connect the device to the mains with the power plug. Do not connect it to a dimming pack.
•
The VDPLP710RGBWx has a power output [4] to supply power to another VDPLP710RGBWx. When
connecting several VDPLP710RGBWxs in a daisy chain via this output, make sure that the total
current does not exceed the power line's nominal current. Use power cables with an adequate
section.
•
The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.

DMX-512 Connection

•
When applicable, connect an XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of a controller (not incl.) and
the other side to the male 3-pin XLR input [5] of the VDPLP710RGBWx. Multiple VDPLP710RGBWxs
can be linked through serial linking. The linking cable should be a dual core, screened cable with XLR
input and output connectors.
•
Maximum recommended serial data link distance is 500 meters (1640 ft). Maximum recommended
number of fixtures on a serial data link is 32 fixtures.
•
A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance
or is in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos). The terminator prevents corruption of the
digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120Ω
resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket [6] of the last
device in the chain.
7. Operation
The VDPLP710RGBWx can be used in the following modes:
•
stand-alone mode: automatic or sound-activated
•
master/slave
•
with a DMX512 controller.
