ok

 

Are you ready to do the test measuring the current?

 

yes, please talk me through it if thats ok

 

Go back and see post #172 for starters.

 

So connect B G to neg, connect negative side of meter to imput on fixture and postive directly to 12 positive making sure meter is set to 10a and plugged in left side it that correct

 

Just need to connect exactly as shown .
Post a photo of your connections before turning on the power supply.

 

So connect B G to neg, connect negative side of meter to imput on fixture and postive directly to 12 positive making sure meter is set to 10a and plugged in left side it that correct

Mostly sounds correct
Negative lead of meter to the +12 V power input on the module.
Red lead to the +12V output of the power supply.
Meter set for 10A

 

So top picture arrow is from 12v+ psu 12v+ positive meter goes here
Blue arrow B and G connected to neg - (showing red led when turned on) bottom arrow 12v from dmx box to fixture connect to black wire from meter.

 

Ignore bottom pic

 

so wiring top down on choc block
1-6 is fixture 1
8-12 is Fixture 2

1.12v Red wire to PSU
2.Blue black Neg to PSU
3.white wire Blue DMX
4.Blue wire Green DMX
5.Brown Red DMX
6.Green Positive DMX
7.N/A
8.Blue Neg to PSU orange Neg to B
9.Yellow Blue DMX white loop B to G
10 Black Green DMX
11.Brown Red DMX
12.Positive from DMX

 

Only want to measure current on a single module.
No connections to the DMX.
Hookup a single module up just as post #172.

 

the R G B are connected to the DMX so do I disconnect the DMX ?

 

there is only 1 module connected 8-12 wires on the right hand side of the block so ignore fixture one as thats the broken one and is not connected

 

Need to get on the same page here.
Needs to be connected like below.
No DMX connections.

 

2 mins

 

Best to have the power supply OFF when making the connections.

 

So the fixture at the monent goes to the DMX on connection 12 this has continuity back to the psu should I wire the fixture to the 12v only? Sorry this is a bit confusing

 

I think we fid this on the broken fixture this one is how I originally wired it think thats where I confused tbh, I will wire it directly

 

Wire what directly?

 

1 connected to 12 on the block connecting the fixture to the 12v psu not the DMX positve
