systems can be controlled with an optional supplementary DMX 512
board. The board can be ordered directly from DERKSEN
®
Lichttechnik. The
supplementary board is installed in the housing of the LIGHTBRUSH
®
master module
and connects to the main board with a ribbon cable. The standard DMX input and
output ports are accessible from the exterior of the housing.
Important for the safety of your system: The supplementary board complies with
all requirements under the new international
DMX 512 A
standard:
The input and output ports are
galvanically balanced
.
The DMX data is utilized only if the start code value is 0.
The DMX 512 A is backward-compatible with existing DMX standards.
Certified Quality:
The supplementary DMX 512 board of DERKSEN
®
Lichttechnik
has been certified under the terms of the
German technical control board (TÜV)
!
All components of the LIGHTBRUSH
®
colour light system have the
GS mark
(safety-
tested) and the
CE mark
(compliance with European safety standards).
Supplementary DMX 512 Board Connections:
Setting the DIP Switches at the DMX 512 Connection:
Switches 1-9 are used to select the DMX channels. In the ON position, the value
assigned to the switch will be added to the total value. Example: Switch 2 (value 2)
and switch 3 (value 4) are set to ON. This results in the selection of channel 6
(value 2+4). No function has been assigned to switch 10.
Remote control operation is switched automatically to DMX control once the ribbon
cable is plugged into the main board.
