Please note:
Never connect a cabled controller if the device with wireless receiver is controlled by the
wireless transmitter!
The wireless receiver has an internal memory function. If the device is switched off and on again, the
receiver automatically logs into the transmitter.
Wireless receiver transmitter status LED
Red permanently lit: not logged into a wireless transmitter (free).
Red/green flashes rapidly: Login-mode, the wireless receiver is logging into the wireless transmitter.
Green permanently lit: The wireless receiver is logged into the wireless transmitter. The DMX signal is
present and received.
The installation procedure of a wireless DMX system depends on the wireless sender. Please refer to the
user manual of the respective device.
Log out one wireless receiver
The procedure of logging out one wireless receiver depends on the respective device. The projector is
logged out via the Control Board, menu Set - Wireless Set – Reset Connect.
Addressing
The Control Board allows you to assign the DMX starting address, which is defined as the first channel from
which the PLB-230 will respond to the controller.
If you set, for example, the address in the 24 channel mode to channel 25, the PLB-230 will use the channel
25 to 48 for control.
Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each PLB-230 correctly and
independently from any other fixture on the DMX-chain.
If several PLB-230 are addressed similarly, they will work synchronically.
Press the Up/Down-buttons for setting the desired starting address. Now you can start operating the PLB-
230 via your lighting controller.
Note:
After switching on, the device will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If there is
no data received at the DMX-input, the display will flash.
This situation can occur if:
- the XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the device.
- the wireless receiver is not logged in to the wireless transmitter or no wireless DMX signal is received.
- the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap
in the input connector.
