    Hey friends, does anyone know if the Gantom DMX fixtures (specifically the GT22) have DMX termination or not? This could significantly affect the topology of a system I am setting up with them.

    It's unlikely they have built in termination in each fixture.
    The User Guide is here. The support email is [email protected].

    Edit: fixed a broken link

    Yeah, I emailed them, just thought the booth might have a faster response time.

    Fastest answer is with a meter! Measure between pins 2 and 3. ~120 ohms = yes, High z = no

    It's only fast if you already have the gear. If you're trying to decide what to buy then it's not really an option.
