Master/slave operation
Several devices may be interconnected (max. 32). Then all slave units can be synchronized and controlled
with the master unit without the need for a DMX controller. The devices must be set to the corresponding
operating modes.
1
Configure all slave units before connecting the master unit. For this, set each Slave device to the same
DMX address (for example 001) and confirm with ENTER.
2
Connect the DMX output of the master unit to the DMX input of the first slave unit. Then connect the
DMX output of the first slave unit to the DMX input of the second slave unit, etc. until all units have been
connected in a chain. Make sure the master unit is the first in the chain. Do not connect a DMX controller
to the DMX input of the master unit.
3
Select the desired program under the show mode Auto Mode at the master unit. The interconnected
devices will now operate synchronously.
RDM
With this function, you can call up various submenus 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-transmission line 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.
DMX operation
To be able to operate the device in DMX mode, it must first be set to DMX under the Control Mode menu
item (see Menu structure).
Setting the number of DMX channels and the DMX starting address
For operation with a controller with DMX512 protocol, the device is equipped with 59 control channels.
However, it can also be switched to a mode with 10, 14, 20 or 50 channels 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.
1
Press the ENTER button so many times until DMX Address is indicated in the display. Confirm with the
ENTER button. The menu for the DMX starting address is called up: DMX ADDR. Use the buttons UP
and DOWN to set the desired address. Confirm with the ENTER button.
2
Now press the ENTER button so many times until CHANNELS is indicated in the display. Confirm with
the ENTER button.
3
The display indicates 10 CH (10 DMX channels), 14 CH (14 DMX channels
50 CH (50 DMX channels) or 59 CH (59 DMX channels). Use the buttons UP and DOWN to select the
desired DMX channel mode. Confirm with the ENTER button.
4
When receiving DMX control signals, the display does not 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 to the
same address, they will work synchronously.
