Front of House Breakout Module
The Front of House (FOH) Breakout Module provides a convenient method for connecting consoles and accessories
at the mix riser position. It provides power outlets for up to 12 devices, each of which are protected by an individual
circuit breaker. Using the FOH Breakout Module, both a primary and backup console can be connected to the system.
The module provides 10 standard DMX512 inputs for inputting console data into the Ethernet stream and two
Ethernet inputs for any Ethernet signal such as Art-Net or HOG® Ethernet. DMX512 universes can be selected and
controlled using the built-in Menu Display.
The following illustration provides a detailed description of the Front of House (FOH) Breakout Module connections,
controls and indicators.
