  Atmospheric RG LED    

 

                       Set Up

Power Supply:

 The American DJ

®

 Atmospheric RG LED contains 

a automatic voltage switch, which will auto sense the voltage when 

it is plugged into the power source. With this switch there is no need 

to worry about the correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in 

anywhere.

DMX-512:

 DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-

tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of 

communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX 

controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fix-

ture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture 

via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX 

fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal). 

DMX Linking: 

DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of 

different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a sin-

gle controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX com-

pliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several 

DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order 

in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the 

DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 

may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, 

or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first fixture controlled by the 

controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture is as-

signed a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA 

assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the 

DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave 

Operation): 

The Atmospheric RG LED can be controlled via DMX-512 

protocol. The Atmospheric RG LED is a 2 channel 

DMX unit. The DMX address is set electronically 

using the controls on the rear panel of the unit. Your 

unit and your DMX controller require a approved 

DMX-512 110 Ohm Data cable for data input and 

data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable 

DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be 

sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable 

(This cable may be purchased at almost all profes-

sional sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with
