6. Send a DMX data to a controller and extend the signal
to 2 or more controllers
Each driver box come with a "IN" and "OUT" socket. For each type of each controller size, find the
location below:
ccei.ca 12

Technical instructions v2.0CAEN
ccei.ca 13

Technical instructions v2.0CAEN
ccei.ca 14

Technical instructions v2.0CAEN
First of all you, have to send the DMX information to the "IN" of the first controller.(D+ stands for
Data + ; D- for Data- and - for Signal common)
Secondly, remove the DMX termination resistor mounted on the "OUT" of each controller. The DMX
termination resistor must remain on the last controller only.
To connect 2 controllers to each other, you have to link the "OUT" from the first controller to the "IN" of
the next controller. If you want to add a third controller, repeat the action between the second controller
and the third controller etc.

Technical instructions v2.0CAEN
6.1. Configure a controller using its DIP SWITCH (applicable if
you have more than 1 controller)
A DMX Module is present in each controller. Using the DIP SWITCH you will assign to the Module
his positioning number (the positioning number will define the position of the lights in the software).
Refer to the list below to address each DMX module. (continue next page)

8. Troubleshooting
8.1. Power supply troubleshooting
The role of the power supply is to provide 24 VDC to the DMX controller / lights. A correctly-working
power supply will supply24 - 27 V DC at the secondary of the power supply (3).
If you don't have 24 - 27 V DC at the secondary of the power supply (3).
• If you have less than 24 VDC (5 - 22 VDC) power supply isn't working properly.
• If you have 0 V, verify that the breaker (1) is pushed in. If not, push in it. If it's triggered again, it
means there's probably a issue on the DMX system (shortcuts).
• Verify that the button I / 0 (2) is in the I position.
• Verify between the blue and white wires the presence of 110/120 V AC (4).
ccei.ca 18

Technical instructions v2.0CAEN
8.2. Controller troubleshooting
The role of the DMX controller is to interpret the DMX signal and to transmit it to the connected lights.
If the lights aren't working you can verify:
• 24 VDC is present in (1)
• The trigger of C16 and C2 are all up (2) & (3)
• Wiring has been made in accordance with DMX standard (4)
• 24 VDC is present between the white and the black wires of each light (5)
• An LED is lit up on the DMX module (6)
8.3. Light troubleshooting
• Lights are plugged as shown in section 3.1.1.1 or 4.1.1.1
• Lights are not dammaged
