REMOTE DEVICE MANAGEMENT (RDM)
NOTE: In order for RDM to work properly, RDM enabled equipment must be used through-
out the entire system, including DMX data splitters and wireless systems.
Remote Device Management (RDM) is a protocol that sits on top of the DMX512 data stan-
dard for lighting, allowing the DMX systems of the fixtures to be modified and monitored
remotely. This protocol is ideal for instances in which a unit is installed in a location that is
not easily accessible.
With RDM, the DMX512 system becomes bi-directional, allowing a compatible RDM enabled
controller to send out a signal to devices on the wire, as well as allowing the fixture to
respond (known as a GET command). The controller can then use its SET command to modify
settings that would typically have to be changed or viewed directly via the unit’s display
screen, including the DMX Address, DMX Channel Mode, and Temperature Sensors.
Please be aware that not all RDM devices support all RDM features,
and therefore it
is important to check beforehand to ensure that the equipment that you are considering
includes all of the features that you require.
