## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the device come with a male-to-male turnaround adapter?**
A: Yes it comes with a turnaround.

**Q: I understand this can be used to test and control dmx devices. but can it also be used to troubleshoot dmx signals from a dmx controller?**
A: I stand corrected...this device can be used to troubleshoot dmx signals through the use of a gender changer.
The only other problem I've found is that many fixtures have 3pin XLR connectors..so a 5pin-3pin XLR adaptor is
required to connect to these fixtures.

**Q: does this include the case/pouch?**
A: The pouch is not included, but can be bought separately. City Theatrical's P/N is 6009.

**Q: does this include the case/pouch?**
A: No. It doe snot include a case .
