power cables
Power input and throughput cables must be rated 20A minimum, have three conductors 1.5 mm² (16 AWG)
minimum conductor size and an outer cable diameter of 5 - 15 mm. Cables must be hard usage type (SJT or
equivalent) and heat- resistant to 90°C minimum. In the EU the cable must be HAR approved or equivalent.
If you install a power plug on the power cable, install a grounding-type (earthed) plug that is rated 20A
minimum. Follow the plug manufacturer’s instructions. Table 1 shows standard wire color-coding schemes
and some possible pin identification schemes; if pins are not clearly identified.
Relaying power to other devices
Warning! Do not connect more than ten fixtures in total to AC mains power in one interconnected chain.
Power can be relayed to another device via the throughput socket.
If you daisy chain the fixtures in a chain so that they all draw AC mains power via the first fixture, certain
points must be respected:
2
• A heavy duty, three-conductor, 16 AWG or 1.5 mm cable with SJT or equivalent cable jacket must be used
to connect the first fixture to AC mains power.
• connectors must be used to draw AC mains power from the fixtures power throughput
sockets and yellow connectors must be used to supply power at the fixture’s power input
sockets.

DMX 512 data is required in order to control a fixture via DMX. The fixture has 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX
data input and output. The pin-out on all connectors is pin 1 = shield, pin 2 = cold (-), and pin 3 = hot (+).
tips for reliable data transmission
To connect the fixture to data:
1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the 3-pin XLR connector of the nearest fixture.
2. Connect the DMX output of the fixture closest to the controller to the DMX input of the next fixture and
continue connecting fixtures output to input.
