DMX-512 addressing with ID address

1. Follow instructions 1 for DMX 512 addressing.
2. Activate ID addressing in each fixture by setting panel function “ID ON/OFF” to ON.
   “Settings” to “ID ON/OFF” to “ON” For every DMX 512 starting address the user can set 66 separate ID addresses. Set ID addresses in each fixture by setting panel function “ ID address” to incremental values.(l.e. 1, 12, 24, 36 etc…) “Settings” to “address” to “01~66”.

The figure above shows a simple DMX layout which has used three units at each DMX address. The three units have different ID addresses which allows the user to collectively control the whole group of units at that DMX address by setting Channel 10 to 0, or to control each unit independently by first selecting the DMX address and then by using Channel 11 to locate the target ID address. (Note that when using ID addresses it is also possible to activate ADAS which allows for even more option with DMX addressing and control.

Mounting

When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times the weight without any deformation. When installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attach-ment, e.g. and appropriate safety cable. Never stand directly below the unit when mounting, removing, or servicing the unit.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculat-ing working load limits, installation material being used, and perodic safety inspection of all installation material and unit. If you lack these qualifcations, do not attempt the installation yourself.
The installaiton should be checked by a skilled person once a year.

The COLORBAR1610IP is fully operational in three different mounting positions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling, set on a flat level surface or mount the unit on its side. Be sure this fxture is kept at least 0.5m away from any flammable materials (decoration etc.). And you’d better use and install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage and/or injury in the event the clamp fails (see next page).

CABLE CONNECTORS

Cabling must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connector on the other end.
DMX connector configuration

caution:Do not allow contact between the ground and the fixture’s chassis ground. Grounding the ground can cause a ground loop, and your fixture may perform erratically. Test cables with an ohm meter to verify positive pole and to make sure the pins are not grounded or shorted to the shield or each other.

3-PIN TO 5-PIN CONVERSION CHART
Note! If you use a controller with a 5 pin DMX output connector, you need to use a 5 pin to 3 pin adapter. The chart below details a proper cable conversion:

3-PIN TO 5-PIN CONVERSION CHART

IR Controller

RDM—Remote Device Management

RDM is a wild version of the DMX512-A protocol, allowing dimming stations and other control devices to be discovered through a DMX512 network, and then configuring, status monitoring, and managing intermediate and line end devices.
It allows two-way communication between the lighting device or system controller and the connected RDM compatible device through the standard DMX. This protocol will allow these devices to be configured, monitored, and managed in a manner that does not interfere with the normal operation of standard DMX512 devices that do not recognize the RDM protocol.
Allow a controller or test device to find other devices that can be RDM, such as computer lights or dimming cabinets, and remotely manage them through this connection intelligence. Including the ability to remotely set the initial address of the DMX512, query the device’s errors or statistics, and achieve most of the configuration settings that are usually done on the front panel of the device. RDM can run with the new RDM device or any original DMX512 product on the same data link without any performance impact. Since RDM runs on the first team DMX512 link, the only infrastructure upgrade required by RDM is to upgrade the existing data distributor to implement a two-way mode to support RDM.

The RDM information is transmitted through the first pair of DMX512 data channels. RDM uses packets that include non-zero initial codes to start and control communications. This alternating(rotating) session and waiting for indicative responses is performed in a semi-duplex format. The second data pair is not used for any RDM function.
Two-way data transmission vendor’s equipment can exchange data, Art-net can only transmit data, can not exchange with each other.

Its functions are as follows:
