Notice:  

• Be sure to follow figures 2 & 3 when making your own cables. Do not connect the cable’s shield 

conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer 

casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behaviour.

Special Note: Line termination:

      • When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to 

        avoid erratic behaviour.

Using a cable terminator (part number CABL90) will decrease the possibilities of erratic 

behaviour. 

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors:

     • Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for data transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-Pin 

       XLR fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin 

       XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used. The Chart below details the 

       correct cable conversion.

Termination reduces signal transmission problems 

and interferance. it is always advisable to connect a 

DMX terminal, (resistance 120 Ohm 1/4 W) between 

pin 2 (DMX-) and pin 3 (DMX+) of the last fixture.
