Installation Guidelines
The Net-X II is used as part of a control system for operating various lighting and multi-media products.
The physical and digital construction of the control network is determined by the location and signal needs
of the products.
When designing a control system that uses the Net-X II, consider the following:
•
Placing the Net-X II so the menu and ports can be accessed
•
Running the cables so there is no tension or pull on the cables or plugs
•
Planning a large control system carefully before configuring the components, so IP address, DMX
address, and other identifiers are not duplicated
Signal Connections
The Net-X II receives signal though 2 DMX In ports and one of 2 Neutrik® etherCON® ports. It sends
signal out through 8 DMX Out ports and the other Neutrik® etherCON® port.
