The MDG
theONE
provides a simple way to check if there is DMX signal:
The
user
can
change
the
DMX
Start
Address
in
the
Interface
Menu
(«
INTERFACE
COMM.
DMX ADDR
»), and choose any value between 1 and 508 (508+5 =
512, last DMX channel).
The Interface uses five (5) DMX channels:
Channel 1
0 (0%)
UNIT OFF
128 (50%)
UNIT ON
255 (100%)
Channel 2
0 (0%)
MODE HAZE
128 (50 %)
MODE FOG
255 (100%)
Channel 3
0 (0) – 255 (100%)
, FOG OUTPUT (from minimum to maximum pressure)
Channel 4
0 (0%)
FOG OFF
128 (50%)
FOG ON
255 (100%)
Channel 5
0 (0) – 255 (100%),
EXTERNAL FAN (from minimum to maximum speed)
These channels have the same behaviour that the menus of the local interface (see
Operating
instructions
paragraph).

The MDG theONE can be controlled via a RDM ANSI E1.20 protocol, an intelligent bi-directional
communication utilizing the DMX512 data link.
RDM permits a console or other controlling device to discover and then configure, monitor, and
manage intermediate and end-devices connected through a DMX512 network. RDM provides for
intelligent control of devices on a DMX512 network, which has not been previously available
outside of proprietary networks
RDM Control has the same functionalities than the DMX Control (
see DMX Control
) with bi-
directional functions allowing the user to read or write specific functions.
