- Now change the DMX Input Mode from the default Wired, to Wireless. At this point, you will
lose control over the 5916 since it is now a wireless device and will receive an error
message, the STATUS light will turn blue and will be blinking if there is no DMX being
received, and will be solid blue if you have a Transmitter already properly set and operating
nearby.
Apply DMX through a transmitter set on the same SHoW ID, SHoW Key, and Universe, and
verify system is working. Note: RDM traffic needs to be enabled at the transmitter to view
the wireless 5916 in RDM.
To configure as a WIRED or WIRELESS device using the City Theatrical USB
Configurator controller:
Download the City Theatrical USB Configurator from the 5916
webpage on the CTI website, and install the program on your computer (Mac or PC).
Connect your computer to your 5916 via a USB to micro USB cable. Select your serial port
from the Serial Port tab
in the USB Configurator program and select “Connect”. Follow the
instructions (above) as you would for using an RDM controller for wired or wireless use.
Using the USB Configurator can be easier since you will not lose control when you switch
from wired to wireless mode.
