Point-2-Point Operation
Basic Point-2-point systems are used when you want to send wireless DMX
data from a console to a single receiver. As the receiver accepts all 512
DMX channels from the transmitter, you can easily daisy chain more fix
-
tures by cable from the fixture with the wireless connection.
Multipoint-2-Multipoint Operation
Up to 16 universes of DMX can be transmitted simultaneously using a
multipoint to multipoint approach. All receivers in a multipoint system will
listen only to the designated transmitter without any delays or interference
from the systems working alongside.
Need more receivers?
Simply add as many receivers as desired to the transmitter, assigning them
with a simple button push.
