INTRODUCTION TO DMX CONNECTION

In a DMX 512 connection there are 512 available channels. Each DMX fixture uses one or more channels to manage its functions. The user must assign a starting address to each DMX fixture connected to the system. This address will indicate the first channel used by the controller. You have to plan the starting address choice in order to avoid the channels' overlapping. Otherwise the fixture wouldn't work correctly.

Example: If you need to connect 3 DMX fixtures, each with 10 channels, the first unit is to be set on address 1, the second unit on address 11 and the third one on address 21. Anyway you can set the same starting address on more devices if you wish them to operate in synchrony. DMX devices are conceived to receive data through a serial Daisy Chain connection. With this kind of connection the data output of a fixture is connected to the data input of the following one. The connection order of the devices is not important and it doesn't affect on how the controller interacts with each of them. We suggest to put them in the easiest and most direct sequence for cable connection. The signal cable length should not be more than 100 m to avoid interferences with other signals or electric devices. To set the address you want to assign to the fixture (from 001 to 512), press the MENU (A) key until the display shows the symbol "d". Then, by means of the UP and DOWN keys, set the address and confirm with ENTER.

To operate correctly with DMX systems it is necessary to know the number of channels available on each connected fixture and the function of these channels.

This fixture operates with 8 channels.

The chart 2 shows the functions related to each channel in DMX mode.

Before using the fixture it would be advisable to take a specific course on DMX systems for full understanding of its potential and functions.
