6] Frame Time

Make sure that your device is still selected under

Preferences > Device Manager... > DMX Devices

Set up the frame time for your device.

Right Mouse Click

Left Mouse Double-Click

on the column

ms / FPS

and enter the required

number.

- The frame time [in milliseconds; ms] affects the frame rate. The frame rate specifies how fast data is sent to

the device or received from it [in Frames Per Second; FPS].

- Increase the frame time in order to decrease the frame rate [e.g., 40 ms = 25 FPS].

- Decrease the frame time in order to increase the frame rate [e.g., 20 ms = 50 FPS].

- The default value is 30 ms / 33.3 FPS.

Some LED fixtures might have problems with a low frame time / high frame rate. Then, it is

recommended to increase the frame time / decrease the frame rate.

[When using USB, the frame time will be automatically set to the same value for all output ports.]

7] Optimized Frames Or Full Frames

Make sure that your device is still selected under

Preferences > Device Manager... > DMX Devices

Choose how to send data.

Right Mouse Click

Left Mouse Double-Click

on the column

Frames

to choose between

Optimized

and

Full

Per DMX512 standard, MADRIX 5 only sends the number of DMX channels that is configured [optimized

frames]. For example, if you are using 312 DMX channels on a DMX universe, only 312 DMX channels will be

sent with every single frame on this universe.

- Activate Full Frames if devices should always send full frames on a particular universe, instead of optimized

frames. Sending full frames means that always the full 512 DMX channels of a DMX universe will be sent with

every frame [even when you are using less than 512 channels on the universe].

- Activating

Full Frames

is recommended if problems with the data output of your devices occur.

In addition, you can activate Send Full Frames for the device and each MADRIX LUNA output port separately.
