D12A 12 Channel Constant Voltage DMX512 & RDM Decoder / Master
Note:
1. Connecting with green terminal(DMX AMP) or an extra amplifier will be needed when more than 32 decoders
are connected, or use overlong signal line, signal amplification should not be more than 5 times continuously.
2. If the recoil effect occurs because of longer signal line or bad line quality, please try to connect 0.25W
90-120Ω terminal resistor at the end of each DMX signal line.

Malfunctions analysis & troubleshooting
1. Wrong connection of R/G/B wires.
2. DMX decode address error.
Causes
1. Output cable is too long.
2. Wire diameter is too small.
3. Overload beyond power supply capability.
4. Overload beyond controller capability.
1. No power.
2. Wrong connection or insecure.
Wrong color
Malfunctions
Uneven intensity
between front and
rear,with voltage drop
No light
1. Reconnect R/G/B wires.
2. Set corrrect decode address.
Troubleshooting
1. Reduce cable or loop supply.
2. Change wider wire.
3. Replace higher power supply.
4. Add power repeater.
1. Check the power.
2. Check the connection.
