CABLE TERMINATION

When total run of Control cable is 90” or over it is necessary to terminate the Cable. This can be accomplished as follows.

1:Many Fixtures have some type of built in termination either auto-matic or by some type of function switch,select this in the last fixture in the link.

2:Make or buy a Termination Plug and insert it into the last Fixture in the link.

To make a termination plug use a Male XLR plug and solder a 90 to 120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor between pins 2 & 3 of the plug.
