1.Connect the controller’s data output to the MAC 500/E’s data input. For a

DMX controller with 5-pin output: use a cable with 5-pin male and 3-pin female connectors such as P/N 11820005. Pins 4 and 5 are not used.

DMX controller with 3-pin output: use a cable with 3-pin male and female connectors such as the one supplied.

Martin RS-485 Protocol controller: use a phase-reversing cable, such as P/N 11820006, with 3- pin male and female connectors or reconfigure the XLR output.

2.Continue the link: connect the output of the fixture closest to the controller to the input of the next fixture. Use a phase-reversing cable when connecting a DMX-standard (pin 3 +) device to a Martin-standard (pin 3 -) device.

3.Insert a male 120 Ω XLR termination plug in the output of the last fixture on the link.
