Detailed instructions for 6 channel DMX mode.
1). When using channel 1, 2 and 3, for colour mixing you can use channel 5 for the strobe effect.
2). When channel 6 is set to 0-31 and channel 5 is set to 0, you can then use channel 4 to obtain
Colour mixing. ( in this mode channel 1, 2 and 3 have no function)
3). When the value of channel 6 is between 32-223, you can use channel 5 to adjust the speed for
Colour mixing or Colour changing.
4). When the value of channel 6 is between 224-255, you can use channel 5 to adjust the sound
sensitivity to the desired level.

DMX-512:
• DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between
intelligent xtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions form the
controller to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the
DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX xtures (most controllers only have
a data “out” terminal).
DMX Linking:
• DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together
and operate from a single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant.
To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX xtures try to use the
shortest cable path possible. The order in which xtures are connected in a DMX line does not
inuence the DMX addressing. For example; a xture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be
placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a
xture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to
address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
DATA Cable (DMX cable) requirements (for DMX operation):
• The Stage Wash 36 can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The DMX address is set on the
back of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for
data input/output (gure 1).
Figure 1
Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.
Stage Wash 36 DMX Set up
Further DMX cables can be purchased
from all good sound and lighting suppliers
or Prolight dealers.

Notice:
• Be sure to follow gures 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 xtures 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.
