• RGB order: O-1 – O-6 indicate six order (RGB, RBG, GRB, GBR, BRG, BGR).
• Pixel length: Range is 008-900.
• Automatic blank screen: enable (”bon”) or disable(”boF”) automatic blank screen.

DMX decode mode

• There are three DMX decode modes selectable.
• DMX decode mode 1: the DMX data change light directly;
• DMX decode mode 2: switch dynamic modes, brightness grade and speed grade via 3 DMX data.
• DMX decode mode 3: the DMX data change light directly (One data copy triple, control one pixel, for SPI type white light strip).
• Long press M, ◀ and ▶ key at the same time to switch DMX decode mode(display”d-1″) and DMX decode mode(display”d-2″). Long press M key for 2s, and then return to DMX address interface.

DMX decode mode 1:

• Short press M key, when display 001-512, enter DMX decode mode.
• Press ◀ or ▶ key to change DMX decode start address(001-512), long press for fast adjustment.
• Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup decode number and multiple of pixels.
• Short press M key to switch two item.
• Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup value of each item.
• Decode number(display “dno”) : DMX decode channel number, range is 003-600(for RGB).
• Multiple of pixels(display “Pno”) : Each 3 DMX channel control length (for RGB), range is 001- pixel length. Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.
• If there is a DMX signal input, will enter DMX decode mode automatically.
• For example, the DMX-SPI decoder connect with RGB strip: DMX data from DMX512 console:

DMX-SPI decoder output (start address: 001, decode channel number: 18, each 3 channel control length: 1):

DMX-SPI decoder output (start address: 001, decode channel number: 18, each 3 channel control length: 3):

The address 1 of DMX console is for dynamic light type setting (32 modes), address 2 is for brightness setting (10 levels), address 3 is for speed setting (10 levels).
  Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.

• Address 1 of DMX console: dynamic light mode

Address 2 of DMX console: Brightness (When address 2 data <5, turn off the light)

226-255(100%)
●  Address 3 of DMX console : Speed
1: 0-25(10%)| 2: 26-50(20%)| 3: 51-75(30%)| 4: 76-100(40%)| 5: 101-125(50%)

DMX decode mode 3:

• Short press M key, when display 001-512, enter DMX decode mode.
• Press ◀ or ▶ key to change DMX decode start address(001-512), long press for fast adjustment.
•  Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup decode number and multiple of pixels.
• Short press M key to switch two item.
• Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup value of each item.
• Decode number(display “dno”) : DMX decode channel number, range is 001-512.
• Multiple of pixels(display “Pno”) : Each one DMX channel control length, range is 001- pixel length. Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.
• If there is a DMX signal input, will enter DMX decode mode automatically.
