DMX TERMINATOR
At the last fixture in the chain, the DMX output has to be connected with a DMX terminator. This
prevents electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control signals.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120Ω(ohm) resistor connected across pins 2
and 3, which is then plugged into the output socket on the last projector in the chain. The connections
are illustrated below.

PROJECTOR DMX START ADDRESS
GREEN LED RED LED
FUNC DOWN UP ENTER
Each PILOT 150 must be given a DMX start address so that the correct projector responds to the
correct control signals. This DMX start address is the channel number from which the projector starts
to “listen” to the digital control information being sent out from the controller. The PILOT 150 has 8
channels, so set the No. 1 projector’s address 001, No. 2 projector’s address 009, No. 3 projector’s
address 017, No. 4 projector’s address 025, and so on.
The display shows the DMX start address after the projector is switched on (if you have already set
the DMX start address and saved it, the screen will display the last setting).
TO SET THE DMX START ADDRESS
Press the UP or DOWN buttons and the display will show the DMX start address.
Confirm your choice by pressing the ENTER button, this will save and set the DMX start address.
The display will show the latest setting each time the projector is powered up.
