Getting Started
4.00 Hardware Setup
4.10 Connecting Power
Plug the socket end of the power cord into the IEC power receptacle located on the
rear face of the Event. The other end of the power cord should be plugged into a
3-pin grounded outlet. It is important that the Event is electrically grounded; if in
doubt, contact a licensed electrician.
4.20 Connecting the Output to a Dimmer
Event provides two methods of connection to dimmer systems. The DMX output
is standard on all consoles. Optional Socapex output panels can also be fitted to the
console to provide 0 - 10V wire-per-channel analogue outputs.
METHOD 1. DMX-512 Output
Connect from the console's DMX output to the DMX input on the dimmer rack.
Check the dimmer instruction manual for details on selecting DMX channels
and looping the DMX line to other dimmer racks.
Up to 512 dimmer channels can be controlled in this way.
METHOD 2. Analogue Outputs (Option)
Connect from the console's Socapex outputs to the dimmer rack input. Up to
eight Socapex connectors can be fitted to a console to provide up to 240 channels
of dimmer control.
