Lumi-Link Command Center Connections
The Command Center uses a proprietary form of DMX to communicate between the lights and
controller. Whilst Lumishore EOS lights can be controlled by any DMX controller (with limited
feature set), the Lumi-Link Command Center can only be used to control Lumishore products.
The Lumi-Link Command Center is plugged into the first Driver, Hub or Light Module in the series.
The installation is terminated using a DMX Terminator plugged into the last light, driver, hub or
module in the series. (see example diagrams on the following pages)
• The Lumi-Link Command Center is for 12/24volt DC operation (10-31volt input). Under no
circumstances should the Controller be connected directly to Mains AC voltage.
• Always use a suitable fuse or circuit breaker to protect the Lumi-Link Command Center and each
element of the system.
3 Pin M12 Lumi-Link Data out connector:
1. Using Lumi-Link DMX cable extensions connect one end to the 3 pin connector on the back of the
Lumi-Link Command Center. Connect the other end to the first light, driver, hub or module in the
series.
2. Use a Lumi-link DMX extension cable to link the next Driver or lighting module. Do not cut or
extend the DMX link cable.
Pre-molded Lumi-link DMX cables are available in 1 meter, 5 meter and 15 meter lengths as
required. Multiple cables can be combined if a further distance is required.

3. Plug the supplied DMX terminator into the DMX output connector of the last light, driver or
module in the chain.
Sound to Light Connection:
A 3.5mm Jack Socket is included. Use a “Jack to Jack” cable or “Jack to Phono” cable as required to
plug the “Line out” from a stereo or iPad/iPhone.
For best results use a stereo output that has constant output irrespective of volume, i.e. when using
an iPad or iPhone use the line out rather than the headphone socket. That way the sensitivity of the
controller will not need continuous adjustment when changing volume.
3rd Party Trigger Input (Optional):
Contact Lumishore to discuss optional 3rd party triggers for Scenes and Zones.

dash board. When pressed, the switch removes control from the Lumi-link command centre and
offers independent On/off control, dimming or pre-set colour selection. To let the Lumi-link
command centre regain control the associate zone should be powered off and on again at the MFD,
smart device or Lumi-Link display.
Mom Switch 1: ON/Off, Press and hold to Dim.
Mom Switch 2 (optional):Can be wired to control pre-set colours; Cold White, Mid White, Warm

Lumi-Link Command Center - Status Leds
If power to the Lumi-Link Command Center is lost temporarily then the system may not fully
function until you exit to the Home screen on the MFD, and then re-select the Lumi-Link Screen.
If there are multiple MFDs in use, and one of the MFDs is used to access a set-up mode (e.g. Light
Set-Up), then the other MFDs will be locked out and will display a message. If this message is seen
then exit to the home screen. Once the set-up is completed the system can be used as normal.
Warranty
LUMISHORE Ltd warrants the Lumi-Link Command Center to be free from defects in workmanship
and materials for a period of two years, starting from the date of original purchase. Misuse, abuse,
improper installation, neglect, improper shipping, damage caused by disasters such as fire, flood,
and lightning, installation by unqualified personnel, unauthorized repair or modification will void this
warranty. For the avoidance of confusion and doubt, non-compliance with all installation,
maintenance and operating instructions in this document constitute non-conformance with
warranty terms.
