If memory usage is a serious problem, it may prove useful to measure the frame rate of the controller that
will be feeding it the DMX data. The majority of DMX test tools can measure the frame rate of a DMX512
data stream.
The
ENTER
button selects the current frame rate and returns to the 2-5-Frame Rate menu option.
The
MENU
button exits this option without changing the current frame rate.
2-6-Number of Channels
This option allows selection of the number of DMX channels (slots) recorded in each frame of the selected
Show. The default is 64.
2-6-Number Of
Channels 204
The
SCROLL
button steps through the values of the hundreds digit [1-5] of the number of channels to be
recorded. The
ENTER
button selects the current value and steps on to the tens digit.
The
SCROLL
button then steps through the values of the tens digit [0-9] of the number of channels to be
recorded. The
ENTER
button selects the current value and steps on to the units digit.
The
SCROLL
button then steps through the values of the units digit [0-9] of the number of channels to be
recorded.
The
ENTER
button selects the current number of DMX channels and returns to the 2-6-Number of Channels
option.
To ensure that all necessary channel data is recorded by the DMXStreamer, the number selected should not
be less than the highest DMX channel used in the connected control system.
Recording channels beyond this range is not necessary, as the DMXStreamer always outputs 512 channel
frames.
The most frequent support requests to Enttec are the result of inadvertently setting the number of recorded
channels below the number of actual channels in the control system.
The
MENU
button exits this option without changing the current number of channels.
2-7-Final Cross Fade Time
This option sets the transition time to be used in looped play mode between the last frame of the current
Show, and the reappearance of its first frame.

Fade Time 16
The
SCROLL
button steps through the fade time [0-63] seconds.
The
ENTER
button selects the fade time and returns to the 2-7-Final Cross fade Time option.
The
MENU
button exits this option without changing the current crossfade time.
