DMX Operation
The DMX operation mode allows you to control the bar using a
standard DMX controller. In this mode you set the start address at
which the fixture will respond to the controller on. Also the channel assignment mode to
be used is set. To address simply press the MODE button, then use the UP/DOWN until
the display shows Addr. Press the ENTER button and the display shows the DMX
address. Use the UP/DOWN to select a start address from 001 to 512. Then press
ENTER. After setting the DMX start address, select a Channel Mode. Press the MODE
button, and use the UP/DOWN keys to find Chnd. Press ENTER button. Using the
UP/DOWN select one of the Channel Modes: 3Ch, 5Ch, 8Ch, 14Ch, 24Ch or 26Ch.
Press ENTER.
The decimal period in the display denotes proper DMX signal is being
received. If there is no period in the display, DMX is NOT being received.
Note:
The following DMX-512 Control section explains how to select a DMX start
address for your fixture. It also covers connecting data cables, proper termination,
specific channel assignments and channel value tables.
DMX-512 Control
Fixtures require a "Start Address" from 1 to 512, setting the first DMX channel containing data
for the fixture (see DMX Background). Before addressing fixtures, consult the manual of the
system’s DMX controller to select a desirable addressing scheme. Valid Start Addresses range
from 1 to 512. Fixtures requiring more than one channel for control will read subsequent
channels up to the total number of channels required. One mode of this fixture requires 5
channels of DMX, if set to a Start Address of 3 it would use data from channels: 3 and 4, 5, 6, 7.
Choose a Start Address so the channels used DO NOT overlap with other fixtures. In some
cases, it may be desirable to set two or more same type fixtures to the same Start Address. In
this case, the fixtures will be slaved together and respond to the same data. Because all
fixtures see the same data, fixtures may be set to any address without concern for the order
they are connected by the DMX cables.
DMX Data Connection
This fixture uses 3 pin XLR type connectors and shielded twisted pair cable approved for
EIA-422/EIA485 use. Fixtures are connected in Daisy Chain topography: Connection is
made from the controller to the DMX-IN of the first light, then from the DMX-OUT to the
DMX-IN of the next light and so on. Only one data source can be on a chain and no
branching is allowed. The physical order in which the fixtures are connected is not
important, use the most convenient.
