Power Supply: Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-

age in your area matches the required voltage for your American DJ ®

Nucleus LED. The American DJ® Nucleus LED is available in a 120v

and 220v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue to venue,

you should be sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet voltage

before attempting to operate you xture. Also be sure to only use the

included I.E.C. power cable supplied with the unit, this cable matches

the voltage and current requirements of the unit.

DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-

tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of

communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX

controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fix-

ture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture

via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX

fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).

DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models

of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a

single controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX

compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using

several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The

order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence

the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address

of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the

end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled

by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture

is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send

DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located

in the DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For

DMX and Master/Slave Operation): The Nucleus

LED can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The

Nucleus LED can be a 4, 18, or 22 channel DMX

unit. The DMX address is set electronically using

the controls on the rear panel of the unit. Your

unit and your DMX controller require a approved

DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and

data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you

Nucleus LED Set Up

Figure 1

are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm

shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all professional

sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male

and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember

that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Nucleus LED Set Up

Notice: Be sure to follow gures two and three when making your own

cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not con-

nect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield

conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding

the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note: Line Termination.

When longer runs of cable are

used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic

behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con-

nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and

DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last

unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator

(ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic

behavior.

Termination reduces signal errors and

avoids signal transmission problems

and interference. It is always advisable

to connect a DMX terminal, (Resistance

120 Ohm 1/4 W) between PIN 2 (DMX-)

and PIN 3 (DMX +) of the last fixture.
