UNDERSTANDING DMX
DMX-512
DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most lighting and
controller manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and
controllers. DMX allows all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked
together and operate from a single controller. This is possible as long as all the fixtures and
the controller are DMX compliant. A DMX controller sends the DMX data instructions to the
fixture allowing the user to control the different aspects of an intelligent light. DMX data is
sent out as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via data “IN” and data “OUT” XLR
terminals located on the fixtures (most controllers will only have output jacks).
DMX LINKING
To ensure proper DMX data transmission, always use proper DMX cables and a terminator.
When using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. Never split a
DMX line with a “Y” style connector. The order in which the fixtures are connected in a DMX
line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a starting DMX
address of 1 may be placed anywhere in the DMX chain, at the beginning, at the end, or
anywhere in the middle. The DMX controller knows to send data assigned to address 1 to
that fixture no matter where it is located in the DMX chain. The DMX address is set
electronically using the controls on the LCD menu.
DATA CABLE (DMX Cable) REQUIREMENTS (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation)
Your fixture and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin or 5-pin XLR connector for
data input and data output (see figure below). If you are making your own cables, be sure to
use two conductor, shielded digital DMX cable rated at 120 ohms; this cable is designed for
DMX transmission and may be purchased from your Elation dealer or at most professional
lighting retailers. Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on
either end of the cable. Also, remember that a DMX line must be daisy chained and cannot
be split, unless using an approved DMX splitter such as the Elation Opto Branch 4™ or DMX
Branch/4™.

w w w . e l a t i o n l i g h t i n g . c o m
Be sure to follow the above figure when making your own cables. Do not use
the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield
conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact
with the XLR outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit
and erratic behavior.
DMX-512 CONTROLLER CONNECTION
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female XLR output of your controller and the other
side to the male XLR input of the LEVEL Q7™ (Please refer to the diagram below.). You can
chain multiple panels together through serial linking. The cable that should be used is two
conductor, shielded DMX cable with XLR input and output connectors. Always be sure daisy
chain your in and out data connections, never split or “Y” your DMX connections unless you
are using an approved DMX splitter such as the Elation Opto Branch 4™ or DMX
Branch/4™.
Address 1
Address 10
Address 19
DMX-512 CONNECTION WITH DMX TERMINATOR
A DMX terminator should be used in all DMX lines especially in longer runs. The use of a
terminator may avoid erratic behavior in your DMX line. A terminator is a 120 ohm 1/4 watt
resistor that is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and
DATA -). This fixture is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last fixture in your daisy
chain to terminate the line. Using a line terminator (Elation part: DMX T PACK) will decrease
the possibilities of erratic behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX CONNECTORS
Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin.
5-pin XLR fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX line. When inserting standard
5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are
readily available at most electric stores. The following chart details a proper cable
conversion.

DMX ADDRESSING
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, so the
correct fixture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the
channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent
out from the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting DMX address is achieved by
setting the correct DMX address on the digital display located on the back of the fixture.
You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or set different
address for each individual fixture. Be advised that setting all fixtures to the same DMX
address will subsequently control all fixtures in the same fashion, in other words, changing
the settings of one channel will affect all the fixtures simultaneously.
If you set each fixture to a different DMX address, each unit will start to “listen” to the
channel number you have set, based on the quantity of control channels (DMX channels) of
each fixture. That means changing the settings of one channel will only affect the selected
fixture.
In the case of the LEVEL Q7™, when in 9 channel mode (default can also be set to 4, 5, 7,
or 9), you should set the starting DMX address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 10 (1 +
9), the third unit to 19 (10 + 9), the fourth unit to 28 (19 + 9) and so on.
Note: During start-up the LEVEL Q7™ will automatically detect whether a DMX data signal
is being received or not. If DMX data signal is being received, the display will show
"Addr=XXX" (XXX representing the actual DMX address). If the fixture is not receiving a
DMX signal the display will flash. If your fixture is connected to a DMX controller and the
display is flashing (not receiving a DMX signal), please check the following:
-
The 3-PIN or 5-PIN XLR input plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not
connected or is not inserted completely into the DMX input jack of the fixture.
The DMX controller is switched off or defective.
-
-
-
The DMX cable or connector is defective.
A DMX terminator has been inserted into the last fixture in your DMX chain.

EditProg - RecCntrl
This fixture features an integrated DMX-recorder by which you can transmit the programmed
scenes from your DMX-controller to the moving head. Adjust the desired scene numbers via
the encoder (from – to). When you call up the scenes at your controller, they will
automatically be transmitted to the moving head.
EditProg - RecCntrl - Execution
A Master unit can send up to 3 different data groups to the Slave units, i.e. a Master unit can
start 3 different Slave units, which run 3 different programs. The Master unit sends the 3
program parts in a continuous loop.
The Slave unit receives data from the Master unit according to the group which the Slave
unit was assigned to. If e.g. a Slave unit is set to “Slave 1” in the menu “Set to Slave”, the
Master unit sends “Auto Program Part 1” to the Slave unit. If set to “Slave 2”, the Slave unit
receives “Auto Program Part 2”.
