FUNCTIONS (rear)
1. MIDI INPUT: Can be used to receive MIDI data.
2. DMX POLARITY SWITCH: A DMX-signal normally has the following connections:
1=ground * 2=Data- * 3=Data+
In some cases it happens that a cable is inversed, as a result of this the DMX-
connection doesn’t work. This can be solved by using this switch. If your DMX
connection doesn’t work and all your DMX-receivers are properly addressed, you
can check this switch. In normal conditions always put this switch in the left
position.
3. DMX OUTPUT: Sends DMX-signals to the connected fixtures
4. FILE DUMP INPUT: Used to connect to a second SM-1612 and copy its chases
and scenes. Don’t use this connector to daisy chain the DMX-signal of two
controllers!
5. DC INPUT: connect the supplied AC/DC adapter to this input. If you should use
another adapter, please make sure that it has 9 ~ 12Vdc and minimum 300mA with
+ in the center.
6. POWER SWITCH: Used to switch the unit ON/OFF
7. AUDIO input: receives audio from any line or record output on audio equipment. If
this input is not used, the internal microphone of SM-1612 takes over.
