XLR plug and plug it into the DMX output of the last fixture.

•
If you are using a controller with this fixture, you can connect the DMX-output of
the controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX chain. If you
wish to connect a DMX-controller using other XLR socket types you need to use an
adapter cable.
