pyrotech Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Hello, I am feeding DMX into one of my CTB16PC controllers. From there, I daisy chain to four other controllers. Do I need to install a DMX terminator on the RJ45 jack of the last controller?? Thanks,Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 You should. Will it work without it? Likely yes, but it could cause problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmienLightFan Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 All RS485 DMX lines should be terminated. Some devices have a resistor to help or a jumper that you can set to add a terminator. My DMX512 to WS2811 and WS2801 have a jumper that adds a terminator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
