DFSE
With this function, you can reset the device to the default setting. Set
DFSE
to ON.
RDM
With this function you can call up various parameters via RDM.
This device is RDM ready. RDM stands for "Remote Device Management" and makes remote control of
devices connected to the DMX-bus possible. ANSI E1.20-2006 by ESTA specifies the RDM standard as an
extension of the DMX512 protocol.
Manual settings like adjusting the DMX starting address are no longer needed. This is especially useful when
the device is installed in a remote area.
RDM is integrated in the DMX-protocol without influencing the connections. New DMX-cables are not
necessary. RDM ready and conventional DMX devices can be operated in one DMX line. The RDM protocol
sends own packages in the DMX512 data feed and does not influence conventional devices.
If DMX splitters are used and RDM control is to be used, these splitters must support RDM.
The number and type of RDM parameters depend on the (optional) RDM controller being used.
In order to see or to change the RDM PID code if required, press the MODE button and choose FIXTURE ID.
Press the ENTER button.
Enter the password 050 via the UP or DOWN button.
You can now see or, if necessary, change the individual RDM PID code of the fixture via the UP or DOWN
button.
Please press the ENTER button to confirm and the MODE button to exit the Mode.

Setting the number of DMX channels and the DMX starting address
For operation with a controller with DMX512 protocol, the device is equipped with 3 control channels.
However, it can also be switched to a mode with 1 channel if different functions are required. To be able to
operate the device with a DMX controller, the DMX starting address must be set. The starting address
depends upon which DMX controller is being used. Please refer to the controller’s documentation.

button and then press the
“DMX mode”
on the display is indicated
CH:01
(1 DMX
channel) or
CH:03
(3 DMX channels). Use the buttons
UP
and
DOWN
to select the desired number of
DMX channels. Confirm with the
ENTER
button.
4 The display will not blink when DMX signals are being received. If no control signals are available, the
display will blink.
Note: Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each device
correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX chain. If several devices are addressed
similarly, they will work synchronically.
