About the ways to control the projector via DMX
DMX signals can be connected to the DMX In port on the communicator interface when using a standard DMX
cable equipped with XLR connector. The DMX out can be used to create a chain of DMX devices. One
universe can control up to 512 channels.
If you are using a DMX console and other automated lighting products compatible with Art-Net, the Ethernet
network can serve as the link for DMX control. All DMX controls can be sent over the Ethernet cable. Multiple
universes are possible.
About the DMX menu
DMX Feature
What can be done?
DMX Address
Before a projector can execute DMX commands, a unique address (named DMX address)
should be given to the projector.
This address can vary from 1 to 512.
DMX Mode
Two different modes for DMX are available.
•
Basic
: A basic configuration where 2 channels are implemented.
•
Extended
: A full configuration, spread over 14 channels.
For the full mapping of each used channel, refer to the DMX chart in the appendices. See
DMX Monitor
If a DMX device is connected, the settings per channel can be displayed via the Monitor
button.
Art-Net DMX
DMX can be sent via the Ethernet connector to the projector instead of the classic DMX
connector. This function can be enabled or disabled. Art-Net is generally used when more
than 512 addresses are used in your setup.
DMX
Universe
Note:
DMX Universe can only be used when Art-Net DMX is enabled.
If Art-Net is enabled, you can specify which DMX universe this projector belongs to.
DMX auto
power down
The projector can be forced to shut down after a certain time-out period (in minutes) if no
DMX signals are available.
Front XLR
connector
If available, the power of the XLR connector on the front side of the projector can be
enabled and set to a desired value.
