Installing ShowEditor and DMXPlayBack
Installing ShowEditor
To install ShowEditor for Windows™, double-click on the supplied
installer file and accept the default program folder "C:\Program
Files\ShowEditor MK2" or enter the location of your preferred folder.
A ShowEditor folder will now be found in the
Programs
list available
from the Windows
Start
button.
In that folder there will now be a ShowEditor icon. By right-clicking on
this icon and selecting
Send to,
then
Desktop,
a shortcut for
ShowEditor will be created on your Windows desktop.
It is preferable to have the DMXPlayBack linked to the computer
before launching ShowEditor.
Connecting the DMXPlayBack MK2
Power supply
The DMXPlayBack requires a low voltage supply (nominally 9V DC)
from the included power pack unit. This should be plugged in to an
appropriate mains outlet and the Power Supply socket on the back of
the DMXPlayBack.
The DMXPlayBack must be connected to the power supply and
switched on before attempting to establish DMX512 or Serial Data
links.
RS232
The DMXPlayBack is controlled and configured through an RS232
serial link to a computer running the ShowEditor software.
