DMX Linking
The COLORdash Par-H12XIP will work with a DMX controller using a 3- or 5-pin IP65 XLR serial connection. A DMX Primer is available from www.chauvetprofessional.com.

DMX Connection
The COLORdash Par-H12XIP uses a 3- or 5-pin IP65 XLR data connection for its DMX personalities: 6CH, 8CH, 9CH, 13CH, and 14CH. See the User Manual for information about connecting and configuring the product for DMX operation.

RDM
Remote Device Management (RDM) is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate bi-directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller’s User Manual or with the manufacturer as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The COLO Rdash Par-H12XIP supports RDM protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options.
