DMX-512A Protocol originated as a way to control multiple channels from a single digital control center. This technology became the universal protocol for a lot of different lighting and stage effect manufacturers, making operation much easier due to more compatible units. Still one problem remains; some fixtures and controllers are 5 pin, and some are 3 pin.
The standard of DMX-512A when it was invented was a 5 pin XLR connector, or cannon jack. The main reason behind this was to differentiate DMX lighting signal from audio signals. If an audio signal would accidentally be plugged into an audio signal cable, damage may occur.
Also different manufacturers used pins 4 and 5 for secondary or auxiliary data ports, but DMX is primarily controlled using only 3 pins. Pin 1 is Ground, pin 2 is data Negative and pin 3 is data Positive. Pin 4 would be secondary data Negative and pin 5 secondary data Positive.
To convert from 5 pin to 3 pin, different adapters are available.
There is the 70029 adapter and the 70030 adapter. You can find these on our website to easily convert your connectors. If you want to change a connector in a cable you can do so. Only the first 3 pins on the 5 pin end are used. Please take a look at the diagram on the video for further reference.
