Neo Adaptive Mode Operation 

The SHoW DMX Neo system can be configured to operate in the new Neo Adaptive (AFHSS) 
Mode.  Neo Adaptive Mode uses an Adaptive Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping broadcast 
format in which the system detects interference and adapts its frequency hopping channel set 
automatically to avoid it.   
Neo Adaptive Mode supports Adjustable Broadcast Power and uses 4 new Adaptive Mode 
SHoW IDs.  Latency is also reduced to ~7mS max in Adaptive Mode.

The SHoW DMX System supports 16 different Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) 
hopping patterns, maximum, full bandwidth broadcasting mode, and three different limited 
bandwidth broadcasting modes.  The SHoW IDs allow the user to quickly select the desired 
combination of Hopping Pattern and Maximum, Full or Limited Broadcast option that is desired. 
Please see 

The Advanced Wireless DMX Broadcast Features

 of SHoW DMX in the SHoW DMX 

System User’s Manual for more about how these features can be used.
