OPERATION
Terra Drum fixtures have no external controls and instead rely on RDM (Remote Device
Management) for all configuration via the DMX interface. This allows multiple devices to be
configured either before or after installation.
ADDRESSING FIXTURES
TO ADDRESS FIXTURES USING THE ACCLAIM LIGHTING XMT-350
1 Connect an XMT-350 (or similar DMX/RDM device) to the DMX input line of either a single
fixture or multiple fixtures in a pre-arranged daisy chain configuration.
2 Power on the fixture(s) and the XMT-350.
3 On the XMT-350, press the
MODE
button, then use the arrow buttons to highlight the
RDM
function and press the button to select. The XMT-350 will search for RDM devices and
after a short while the XMT-350 will display a list of all located fixtures:

Note: DMX addresses shown in brackets, e.g.
(001), have been temporarily assigned by the
XMT-350, but are not yet stored within the
fixture(s).
The fixture that is highlighted
within the list should begin
flashing its emitters to identify
itself.
