DMX Setup
DMX asics
DMX512 stands for di ital multiplex 512. This means that 512 channels are con-
trolled di itally throu h 1 data cable.
A channel is a set of 255 steps that are assi ned to control attributes in each li ht.
This may be a color like red, reen or blue, and intensity, strobe, pan/tilt or other
attributes.
Multiple sets of 512 “universes” may be used. Only 1 universe will travel on a DMX
cable, but throu h networked DMX (Art-Net or sACN E1.31), many universes can
travel over a network.
DMX Wiring
DMX works by connectin 1 or multiple li hts to the output of a DMX li htin
console or software with a DMX interface.
DMX li hts connect in what is called a “daisy-chain”. Your first DMX cable will
plu it’s male DMX connector into the female DMX connector on your li htin
console. The remainin female connector will then connect to the DMX input on
your first li ht.
You may then connect your next fixture to the output of your first li ht, and con-
tinue the chain.
32 Fixture Rule – DMX only allows you to connect up to 32 fixtures in a sin le
daisy chain for si nal stren th. Sometimes, dependin on the fixtures and cable
len th, this number is less (or more).
DMX Cables can be 3-pin or 5-pin. These use the same type of data, and in the 5-
pin only pins 1, 2, and 3 are used. The cable should be a 2 conductor, shielded
cable of at least 110 ohms resistance. Microphone cable is not DMX cable.

Please refer to the dia ram below:
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a lon distance or is in an elec-
trically noisy environment, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This
helps in preventin corruption of the di ital control si nal by electrical noise and
reflections. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plu with a 120 Ω resistor con-
nected between pins 2 and 3, which is then plu ed into the output XLR socket
of the last fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below:
DMX Modes and Configuration
The Starburst Par has multiple DMX modes, sometimes called “personalities”, “pro-
files”, or as we will use here “modes”.
In eneral, modes with more DMX channels offer a reater level of control or op-
tions but take up more of your output channels on your li htin console or soft-
ware.
Modes with less DMX channels often offer less control, but may be plenty for your
needs.
Dependin on your needs and control solution, you may not need chan-
nels for automated pro rams, strobes, or macros – your console may have reat
effects! In this case, you can use a lesser channel mode and fit more li hts per
DMX universe.
View the DMX mode charts below to find the mode that best suits your needs.
