o DMX512 Connection
Connect an XLR cable (not incl.) to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other side to the male 3-pin XLR
input of the VDPL1501MHW-B / VDPL1501MHW-W. Multiple VDPL1501MHW-Bs / VDPL1501MHW-Ws can be linked
through serial linking. The linking cable should be a two-core screened cable with XLR input and output connectors.
o DMX512 Chain with Termination
o DMX512 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 VDPL1501MHW-B / VDPL1501MHW-W.
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 VDPL1501MHW-Bs / VDPL1501MHW-Ws 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 12-channel VDPL1501MHW-B / VDPL1501MHW-W, you will have to set the start address of the first
VDPL1501MHW-B / VDPL1501MHW-W to 1, the second VDPL1501MHW-B / VDPL1501MHW-W to 13 (1 + 12), the third to
25 (13 + 12) and so on.
7. 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.
8. Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.

VDPL1501MHW-B / VDPL1501MHW-W_v4
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 Ω resistor between pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR
output socket of the last device in the chain.
