5 - CONNECTION TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
WARNING: For protection from electric shock, the xture must be earthed!
The product is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50-60Hz
AC power source from 100-240 Volts.
If you need to install a power plug on the power cable to allow connection to power outlets, install a
grounding-type (earthed) plug, following the plug manufacturer’s instructions. If you have any doubts
about proper installation, consult a qualied electrician.
You can link up tp 7 units at 120 V; 14 at 230 V. Never exceed this number. Power linking cords can be
purchased separately.
When connecting the unit to a local power, it may be necessary to use the Schuko to IP67 adapters
supplied with this product.

IP67 CONNECTOR
DMX - INPUT
IP67 CONNECTOR
INSTRUCTIONS FOR A RELIABLE DMX CONNECTION
Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 devices: standard microphone cable cannot trans-
mit control data reliably over long runs. 24 AWG cable is suitable for runs up to 300 meters (1000 ft).
Heavier gauge cable and/or an amplier is recommended for longer runs.
To split the data link into branches, use splitter-ampliers in the connection line.
Do not overload the link. Up to 32 devices may be connected on a serial link.
NOTE: To connect the unit to your DMX network, it is necessary to use the adapters XLR 5 pin-
IP67 signal connector, supplied with this product.
CONNECTION DAISY CHAIN OF THE DMX LINE
Connect the DMX data output from the DMX source to the product DMX input (male connector).
Run the data link from the product DMX output (female connector) connector to the DMX input of the
next xture.
Terminate the data link by connecting a 120 Ohm signal termination.
The termination is prepared by 120Ω 1/4 W resistor between pins 2 and 3 of the male DMX connector.
Install a DMX termination plug on the last xture on the link. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch
of the link.
NOTE: when not using the DMX input or DMX output connectors, you must seal the cable ends
with the supplied caps.
