DMX
(Not used in BASIC Mode)
OFF – No DMX received (Basic Mode)
ON (RED) – DMX Fail
ON (GREEN) – Good DMX or RDM data packet received. Note that in Monitor Mode the DMX
indicator will only be green when RDM packets are being received. In this case a RED LED
is not indicating DMX failure, just that no data is being received from the RDM monitor.

CONTROL MENU
SET DMX ADDRESS
(in Monitor, DMX or Service modes)
Select a DMX starting address in the range 001 to 510
1 – Lamp Relay
In Service Mode an addition two slots are available
2 – Fan Relay
3 – Heater Relay
Note that the DMX control is designed using a SAFETY pile-on Logic. So the DMX input can
only override automatic settings in a safe manner. For example, if the enclosure has
switched off the lamp relay due to an over-temperature condition, the DMX input cannot
switch it on, if the fans are running because of Overtemp, the DMX input cannot turn
them off, and so on.
SET DMX MODE
From the Front Panel, this menu item allows the user to check (and if necessary change)
the RDM mode.
