1.3.3 DMX signal cable construction
Power Light P1212 has a DMX 512 input that uses standard XLR 5-pin connectors.
When connecting, screened cable in compliance with EIA RS-485 specifications and with the
following characteristics must be used:
- 2 conductors plus screen
- 120 Ohm impedance
- low capacity
- maximum transmission rate 250Kbaud.
Connecting the cable:
see diagram, taking care to ensure that the screen is connected to Pin 1
Attention: the cable screen (braid) must NEVER be connected to the system's
ground, as this would cause faulty unit or controller operation.
1.3.4 Example of DMX line connection
To avoid the risk of faulty operation, follow the following indications:
Maximum cable length: 500m
Maximum N° of units connected: 32
Cable run: Avoid running the cable alongside power lines.
Termination: 120 ohm resistor across Pins 2 and 3 of the last unit.
