DMX Output and Ethernet Configuration
There are 4 DMX output sockets on the rear of the grandMA. These sockets can be assigned to any of the DMX
universes A to H. It is also possible to output the same universe on more than one output socket.
By using Ethernet data transmission more DMX outputs can be assigned.
DMX universes E to H are only available with the optional channel expansion upgrade to 4096 channels. As of
serial number 156, a dongle (hardware protection) has to be installed within the grandMA; for serial numbers
under SN 156, a plug-in card has to be exchanged.
For this operation, the unit can only be opened by a qualified technician. CAUTION:
