Vizi Beam RXONE DMX Set Up
Power Supply: The ADJ® Vizi Beam RXONE contains an electronic ballast, which will auto sense
the voltage when it is plugged into the power source. With the electronic ballast you do not need to
worry about wall voltage. This unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by most lighting and
controller manufactures as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A
DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as
serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals locat-
ed on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be
linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX
compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures, try to use
the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not
influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed
anywhere in a DMX line: at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is
assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that
unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Primary/Secondary Operation): The Vizi
Beam RXONE can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Vizi Beam RXONE has 2 DMX channel
modes: 15 channels and 17 channels. The DMX address is set electronically using the controls on
the front panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX controller require an approved DMX-512 110 Ohm
Data cable for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you
are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may
be purchased at almost all professional sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with
a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must
be daisy chained and cannot be split.
