Wiring

 

1.

 

Confirm that the power supply voltage matches the LED voltage and that the power 
supply is unplugged. 

2.

 

Connect the LEDs and power supply to the 

DMX-5-8A

 using the screw terminals. Power 

supply positive and ground should be connected to “V+” and “GND” terminals 
respectively. LED positive should be connected to the “+” terminal. The V+ terminals 
may also be used for LED positive if extra space is needed. Connect LED negatives to 
output channels 1-5 as appropriate for the installation. 

 

3.

 

Power up the power supply. The screen will display 

 where “XXX” is the 

DMX starting address. 

4.

 

Connect the DMX input and output (if applicable) to any of the input/output ports. Note: 
do not send DMX signals to the decoder while it is powered down.
