Connection
Power
Connect the device to the mains with the power plug.
All devices must be powered directly off a grounded switched circuit.
Do not connect the device to a rheostat or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used
solely for 0 % to 100 % switching.
Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.
The device has a power output to supply power to another device. When connecting several devices
in a daisy chain via this output, make sure that the total current does not exceed the power line's
nominal current. Use power cables with an adequate section. If you do not use the power linking
feature, be sure to use the included screw-on cap to prevent any water from getting into the power
cords.
Power Linking
The VDPLDJBAR8 allows power linking through the IEC outlet located at the back of the device.
You can link up to 16 VDPLDJBAR8 devices on 230 V (4 devices at 120 V). Never exceed this
number.
Power linking cords can be purchased separately.
When power linking multiple products, you must always consider the length of the power linking
cable and mount the products close enough for the cable to reach.
DMX-512 Connection
When applicable, connect an XLR cable to the female XLR output of a controller (not incl.) and the
other side to the male XLR input of the device. Multiple devices can be linked through serial linking.
The linking cable shall be a dual core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.
Maximum recommended serial data link distance is 500 meters (1640 ft). Maximum recommended
number of devices on a serial data link is 32 devices.
A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance
or is in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos). The terminator prevents corruption of the
digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω
resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket of the last device in
the chain.
