Viewing DMX Data for the Link (DATA)
This procedure allows you to use a StudioPix fixture to view DMX channel values all devices on
the DMX link. Use this menu option to:
• Checking current DMX values on this fixture
• Test devices that do not have built-in DMX diagnostics
• Check fixtures that are physically inconvenient to monitor directly
If you experience a problem with a device on the link, use this menu to select a DMX channel in
the device’s channel range and view its DMX value. After noting the value of the channel you
selected, use your DMX console to change that channel’s value.
If the value of the DMX channel you selected does not change, there may be a problem with the
DMX cable or your transmitting device (i.e. DMX console).
If the DMX channel value changes, but the device does not respond, the device may be faulty.
Consult the documentation provided with that device for more information.
