c.

Connect DMX512 cable from console or splitter. Remember to terminate the last device in any DMX512
line.

Figure 3-34: Smart Repeater

d.

Connect AC cable (a Series 200 connector to male power plug), which will come from a non-dim circuit
or other non-voltage-controlled source.

Step 11. Connect Signals to Racks

a.

Set up console and run the control snake.

b.

Plug DMX512 cables (one per universe) into the console and run them to the first DMX512 unit in line;
this first device can be a DMX512 splitter, which takes one DMX512 universe in and outputs it multiple
times. Or, the DMX512 cable can run directly to the dimmers and can continue on to other devices from
there.

Step 12. Perform final inspection.

Ensure that all components are securely connected and that safety cables have been installed. Ensure that
cabling is routed safely.

Step 13. Perform system checkout and troubleshooting.
