RC Transmitter
When choosing the RC Transmitter mode you can control ART3 transmitters as well as wire-
less Astera lamps. Two values can be set in the RC Transmitter mode:
RC DMX Address
Chooses the ART3's input DMX address from 0-511.
DMX Tab
Three DMX tab that control the lamps can be chosen. Each one has a pre-defined set of
DMX channels and their effects on the lamps.
A table showing the DMX channels for each tab can be found in Appendix 1.
While the DMX Tabs NORMAL and EXTENDED offer the same possibilities as the ARC2 re-
mote control just that you input the values directly at a DMX light controller the DMX Tab
SIMPLE RGB offers an easy way to set the same color to all lamps in reach of the ART3.
4.3 DMX Receiver
To start this mode, choose DMX RECEIVER in the top navigation and confirm with
Enter.
As soon as a Wireless DMX signal is received by the antenna, the power-LED start flickering
green, and the XLR connector outputs DMX data. If the signal is lost, the transmission stops.
DMX Failure:
When in the DMX Receiver mode you can also set a value for DMX Failure in case the DMX
signal is interrupted and the ART3 does not receive any DMX data. Four values are possible:
Hold:
If the DMX reception times out, the output keeps unchanged and the
last received DMX frame is displayed.
Emergency Light:
If the DMX reception times out, the light turns white.
Blackout:
If the DMX reception times out, all light turns black.
Auto Program:
If the DMX reception times out the ART3 displays any of the 20 pre-
programmed programs.
