5.8. DMX Mode
Attention
The DMX mode allows you to control the device with any universal DMX controller.
▪
All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds
to the signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device
starts to “listen” to the DMX controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole
group of devices or an individual address can be set for every device.
▪
When all devices have the same address, all the units will “listen” to the control signal on
one particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all
devices simultaneously. If you set individual addresses, each device will “listen” to a
separate channel number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the device
in question.
Start Addresses
After switching on, the device will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or
not. If there is data received at the DMX input, the DMX LED next to the LCD display will flash.
If no DMX signal data is received? This situation can occur if:
−
the XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of
the device.
−
the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the
signal wires are swap in the input connector.
To set the device to work with a DMX controller
* Press MODE until <DMX Address> is displayed and press ENTER.
* Use <UP> and <DOWN> to set the DMX start address and press ENTER.
Use the table below to define the correct address. The table shows the settings for units 1 to
3. Apply the same principle for the other units. Example:
