Can you find any form of lighting desk that went with them?

I belive it was a old Zero 88 desk possibly a Alcora but im not totally sure as we swapped desks a while ago.

In that case Tim's pinout would be the right one.

I am pretty sure only Pulsar used the other wiring standard. It could have been rewired to work with a pulsar desk of course. 

The Pulsar wiring was different to allow them to use a 5 pin din on their 3 channel packs and keep the same pin allocation

051 334 8991 - haven't seen that phone number for a while! Lancelyn Lighting on the Wirral. Long gone - what an Aladdin's Cave that place was. Looks like part of their old hire stock.

Pretty sure these will be the non Pulsar standard (aka Zero 88). I can't recall anything except Pulsar kit using the Pulsar pinout.

You do occaisionally see Zero 88 demuxes come up on the auction sites. They have 8 pin din on them, so it's a straight cable to each dimmer to connect them up. If you can or know someone who can solder well, then adaptors from the various other makes of demux either new or secondhand are easy to build.

For completeness, this is the Pulsar pin out which I'm pretty sure you don't need 🙂

Pin 1 = Low Voltage Supply In

Pin 2 = 0V

Pin 3 = Channel 1

Pin 4 = Channel 2

Pin 5 = Channel 3

Pin 6 = Channel 4

Pin 7 = Channel 5

Pin 8 = Channel 6
