Introduction

Multi-Station, multi-room manual DMX controls for a full DMX 

universe of control!
Value, power and complete flexibility in a “green”, user friendly, 

cost-effective package! The DMX Series of controls are the most 

capable manual “stand-alone” DMX controls available. These field 

programmable controls support 512 channels of DMX data with 

digitally adjustable fade times. Multiple stations can be daisy-chained 

together on the same control wire permitting multiple stations per 

room. Each station can be individually programmed with our wireless 

infrared hand-held programmer (Model Number: CS-IPRO) permitting 

any slider/channel assignments imaginable.
Available from single to 12 channels with master, preset and take 

control functions. Two and three button entrance station can be 

remotely “locked out” for application where access needs to be 

limited. This series of controls will operate on DC supply voltages 

up to 18 volts. Adjustable time fade and LED intensity allow 

customization for demanding applications. Durable powder-coat finish 

is available in either black or white.
