• DMX512 Connection

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 VDPLW1440. Multiple VDPLW1440s can be linked through serial linking. The linking cable

should be a two-core screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.

• DMX512 Chain with Termination

• DMX Start Address

All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the signals. This start

address is the channel number from which the device starts to "listen" to the DMX controller. Enter the correct

number and read it from the display located on the base of the VDPLW1440.

You can use the same starting address for a whole group of devices or enter an individual one for every device.

When all devices have the same address, all the VDPLW1440s will "listen" to the control signal on one particular

channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices simultaneously. If you set

different addresses, each device will "listen" to a separate channel number. Changing the settings of one channel will

only affect the device in question.

In the case of the 17-channel VDPLW1440, you will have to set the start address of the first VDPLW1440 to 1, the

second VDPLW1440 to 18 (1 + 17), the third to 35 (18 + 17) and so on.

6. Cleaning and Maintenance

1. All screws should be tightened and free of corrosion.

2. The housing, visible parts, mounting supports and the installation location (e.g. ceiling, suspension, trussing)

should not be deformed, modified or tampered with e.g. do not drill extra holes in mounting supports, do not

change the location of the connections.

3. Moving mechanic parts must not show any signs of wear and tear.

4. The electric power supply cables must not show any damage. Have a qualified technician maintain the device.

5. Disconnect the device from the mains prior to maintenance activities.

6. Wipe the device regularly with a moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents.

7. There are no user-serviceable parts apart from the fuse.

8. Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.

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.
