Connections

Dmx Data

There are 2 RJ45 dmx sockets on the board. These are designed for loop in and loop out.

If the DMX36Mk2 is the last dmx device on the dmx cable then the signal should be terminated

with the termination jumper. Basically if only 1 cable is plugged in to the dmx sockets then the

termination jumper should be installed. If both sockets are used then the termination jumper

should be left off.

The DMX36Mk2 uses the ESTA pinout. If connecting to a LOR device (dongle or controller)

an adaptor cable or adaptor will need to be connected in between.

DC Power Input

The 4 large 2 way green connectors are the DC inputs from your power supply. Each of the 4 zones of 9channels can use

a separate power supply or you can feed them all from one common power supply. Separate wiring (back to the power

supply) for each of the zones is recommended to minimise voltage drop. The + terminals are positive and the - terminals

are negative. The board will control any DC voltage up to 35V. At least 1 zone will need to be 5V or above. If all 4 zones

are running off 5Vit is necessary to install the “5V only” jumper. Installing this jumper if more than 5.5V is applied to

any of the zones may damage the pcb. The negative (-V) terminals are commoned between the 4 zones so this must be

taken into account when wiring up to the power supply/supplies. Each of the 4 zones has a standard ATO (automotive)

fuse adjacent to the power terminals. The DMX36Mk2 comes supplied with 10A fuses fitted. Fuses up to 30A can be

used. It is recommended changing the fuse to the closest size for the total current that the zone will be supplying.

Dimmer Outputs

There are 36 channel outputs; 18 per side with each side divided into 2 zones. Each side can be run at the same, or a

different supply voltage. Any DC voltage in the range of up to 35V can be used for each of the banks.

The maximum load per channel is 5 Amps, but remember that the overall limit per bank/zone of 9 outputs is 30 Amps.

This means that you can't turn on all 9 outputs of a zone with the maximum load. In reality, this should not be a problem

as most loads will be less than 2 Amps.

There are 36 dimmer outputs which are in banks of 9 with each zone of 9 fused separately. Each group of 3 outputs is

grouped into 4 terminals. These are the 3 outputs and a common positive. RGB lights with a single common anode should

have the common wire connected to the terminal + (the 4 banks have common -ve terminals) and the red, green and blue

-2-

wires to channels 1,2,3 (or 4,5,6 etc). The order and specific channels is actually dependant on what is configured in your

sequencing software. For lights that have single colours (or single channels) per pair of wires then 1 wire gets connected

to the + and 1 gets connected to the channel output. For led lights which require the polarity to be around the right way

then the anode (positive) gets connected to + and the cathode (negative) goes to the channel. For lights that do not have

three channels commoned then 3 wires will be joined and fitted to the + for the 3 channels.

See the Connection Examples section for the various methods of connecting lights.

USING THE DMX36Mk2

Status Leds

There are 3 small LEDs at the right of the PCB adjacent to the micro.

Red led-5V Power, Blue led-MODE, Green led-DATA

-Red led 5V power

-Blue MODE led on solid. Green DATA led flashing Normal run mode. Dmx packets being received

-Blue MODE led on solid. Green DATA led off. Normal run mode. No dmx data

-Blue MODE led flashing 10Hz. Green DATA led off. Address setting error

-Blue MODE led flashing slowly. Green DATA led off. Test mode

Test mode takes precedence over normal running so errors/status message other than test mode won’t be displayed if in test mode.

Start Channel

The start channel is set via 9 dipswitches. The channel is set in binary by turning on the relevant switches. DMX addresses can

be anywhere between 1 and 512. The address of the DMX36Mk2 can be anywhere in the range of 1 to 477 (a start address of 477

uses the addresses from 477 up to the maximum 512). If the address is set outside of this range an error is indicated via the 2 status

leds. See Status Leds. The start channel can be changed at any time.

The start address can be calculated by adding up the totals for the switches that are on. For example 64 + 16 + 1 would give a start

address of 81. A table is provided later in the manual that lists the dmx start addresses.

Test Mode

There is a switch which places the control into a test mode. In this mode a test program runs and all 36 outputs are cycled through.

This mode allows for soak testing of lights without the need for a source of dmx data. The control will cycle through 12 modes

of testing from 1 led on at a time, through all reds on, all greens etc. The test mode switch is the left most dipswitch and is labelled

TEST.

Connection Examples

Typical connection arrangement showing 3 leds and a 12V

power supply. The lights can be single colour, multicolour,

RGB or whatever. For individual lights with 2 wires the

positive wires would be joined and connected to the +V

terminal.

Connection example showing channel 1 connected to a second

power supply. This method is used where lights other than the

main power supply voltage is needed. This method can be used

for ACL strobes or similar devices. The primary power supply

powering the DMX36Mk2 needs to be in the range of 5V to

35V DC. The secondary power supply can be any voltage up to

a maximum of 60V DC. This method can also be used if an

output is used to control a relay at a voltage other than the

supply voltage.

As it possible to run the DMX36Mk2 off up to 4 different

power supplies a light on 1 zone can be powered by the supply

on another zone.

Connecting DMX boards

DMX is an implementation of an RS485 network. It is commonly connected via Cat5 or Cat6 RJ45 patch cables or 3 core cable with 3 pin or

5 pin Cannon connectors when used for stage equipment. The normalmethod of connection is from a data source daisy chained from controller

to controller before the final board is terminated either via an onboard termination or via a connector with a 120 Ohm resistor in it.

In general most DMX boards will have 2 DMX connectors. These are connected directly in paralleland it doesn’t matter which is used for the

data in and which is used for the data out. There are 2exceptions to this generalrule.Some cheap Chinese DMXmodules only have a single point

to connect the DMXdata too and it is necessary to tee off at that point to other boards. The otherexception is some stage type DMX devices that

have a Master and a Slave connector. This is because there is internal electronics that allow the device to generate effects that can be sent

downstream to other devices.

Alldevices on a DMXcable are on the same DMX universe and that is configured on whatever is sending out the data, not on the devices. All

DMX devices have a “start address”. This is the 1st address that the device uses and it willusethat address andthenext“n”databytes. The cabing

order of DMX devices doesn’t matter. The only requirement is that the finaldevice is terminated to prevent data issues. Terminating any other

device is likely to cause data reliability issues.
