Default DMX Path

Does someone know of a sight that shows the path of the DMX signal? I know the basics of it but feel like i should completely understand it .

"Dr. DMX" himself offers this DMX 512 Primer. It's not the simplest thing to understand but its well written and you can figure it out

He also has this nice little chart page that shows how systems should work.

If you've got $30, some time, and want to REALLY understand DMX get ahold of the book "Practical DMX" by Nick Mobsby It's a great easy to read and understand book that fully explains DMX.

The DMX512-online site mentioned above is EXCELLENT. I used it to read up on how DMX works, and it's very thorough and easy to understand.
