c. DMX-512 Connections
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other side to the male 3-
pin XLR input of the VDP250MHS13. Multiple VDP250MHS13s can be linked through serial linking. The linking cable
should be two core, screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.
Please refer to the diagram at the right.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator.
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the
fixture or one fixture with another.

d. DMX-512 Chain with termination
VDP250MHS13
FOCUS
DIMMER
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 resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR
output socket of the last device in the chain.
Please see illustrations to the left.
