DMX TECHNOLOGY

DMX-512
DMX (Digital Multiplex) is the designation for a universal transmis-
sion protocol for
communications between corresponding devices and controllers.
A DMX controller sends DMX data to the connected DMX device(s).
The DMX data is always transmitted as a serial data stream that is
forwarded from one connected device to the next via the "DMX IN" and "DMX OUT" connectors
(XLR plug-type connectors) that are found on every DMX-capable device, provided the maximum
number of devices does not exceed 32 units. The last device in the chain needs to be equipped
with a terminator (terminating resistor).

DMX CONNECTION

DMX is the common "language" via which a very wide range of types and models of equipment
from various manufacturers can be
connected with one another and controlled via a central controller, provided that all of the devices
and the controller are DMX compatible. For optimum data transmission, it is necessary to keep
the connecting cables between the individual devices as short as possible.
The order in which the devices are integrated in the DMX network has no influence on the
addresses. Thus the device with the DMX address 1 can be located at any position in the (serial)
DMX chain: at the beginning, at the end or somewhere in the middle. If the DMX address 1 is
assigned to a device, the controller "knows" that it should send all data allocated to address 1 to
this device regardless of its position in the DMX network.
