DMX MODE
The default operating mode for the AC400 DMX 4x8 is DMX Mode, in which the
AC400 DMX 4x8 is always checking for and responding to an active DMX signal.
•
There are several settings that can be adjusted during DMX operation
(see “ Settings ” section).
•
Additionally, the DMX start address must be set
(see “
Setting DMX Start Address
” section).
•
If no DMX signal is present or if local (non-DMX) control is preferred,
change the mode to Local Mode
(see “
Local Mode
” section).
SETTINGS
The following settings can be adjusted on the AC400 DMX 4x8:
•
Smoothing (
Smooth
)
Smoothing increases resolution during fades and, in doing so, helps to eliminate
visible “steppiness” in the dimming range, especially at the low end. If high speed
changes are needed, smoothing may be turned off.
•
DMX Bit Rate (DMX) ( only applies to DMX Mode operation )
A) 8-bit: Accepts 8-bit data streams.
B) 16-bit: Accepts 16-bit data streams. 16-bit operation can provide greater
resolution. Not all DMX consoles support 16-bit DMX streams. This bit rate
should be selected only when it is known that the DMX console is outputting
a 16-bit data stream.
•
Dimmer Response (
Curve
)
A) Standard ( Std ): The standard dimming curve is a linear curve, meaning that for
every increase in input intensity control there is an equal increase in output
intensity control.
B) Exponential (
EXP
): The exponential dimming curve allows for greater resolution
in the low end of the dimming range. At the low end of the dimming
range, changes in input intensity control translate to relatively small changes
in output intensity control at the low end and larger changes as the input
intensity control increases.
