Note: If a fixture loses its DMX signal, it will hold its last DMX command.

For this reason, it is important to turn a fixture off using the DMX commands.

For example, if you try to turn off the lights by turning off the dimmer board,

the lights will remember their last DMX command and stay on. The fixtures

require a DMX “Off” or “Black-Out” command in order to turn off.

Auto Terminate Feature

The

BarFly 450 series have an “AUTO TERMINATE” feature. The last

fixture that does not have an XLR cable attached to the DMX “Out” port will

automatically terminate.

Any theatrical lighting board with DMX512 protocol can be used to individu-

ally turn on/off lamps in a fixture. BarFly 450 fixtures can be jumpered using

the IN and OUT ports. As many as 100 fixtures can be jumpered on one

chain as long as the DMX cable run remains under 1000 feet or 40 x 25ft

DMX cables.

Note: When operating fixtures at great distances from the dimmer board,

it is recommended to use Opto-Isolators to provide DMX signal amplification.
