DMX Termination (Optional)

To prevent electrical noise from disturbing DMX control signals, the last fixture in a DMX chain should be terminated. This is done by soldering a 1/4 Watt, 120 Ohm resistor across the DATA - and DATA + wires of the DMX OUT connector of the last fixture. The diagram illustrates these connections.

[Diagram: DMX chain connection with 6 fixtures, showing DMX IN/OUT ports on each. The last fixture (6) shows a resistor connected between pins 2 and 3 of the DMX connector, labeled "120 Ohm/1W". Pins are labeled 1, 2, 3.]
