DMX Subnet

Note:

• Only the Imagine Helvar’s range of products based on Helvar’s SDIM protocol. 920 Router In the sense of a lighting system, a router is an intelligent device whose software and hardware perform the tasks of routing and forwarding messages (data) from control devices to the control gear. A router contains two or more subnets. has a subnet A subnet is a part of a router. There are two or more subnets on each router. The subnet allows the flow of network traffic between hosts to be segregated, based on network configuration. By organising hosts into logical groups and joining them, subnetting, network security and performance can be improved. connector and can therefore support one DMX subnet.
  The Imagine 920 Router’s DMX connections are as follows:
  0 V: 0 volts
  SC: Screen
  Term: Termination
  A: + (plus)
  B: – (minus)

• A DMX Stands for Digital Multiplex. A type of subnet, used mainly for stage lighting and effects control. Lighting Control Console (or Lighting Desk) controls the levels of channels in the range from 0 to 255. When the DMX subnet is in DMX 'Out' operation, if you send a command to set a DMX channel A channel pertaining to a load (also known as control gear or LIU), see entry for load. A ballast has one channel, whereas a dimmer or relay unit can have numerous channels. to 100 % then the channel goes to 255 on the DMX device A physical item with which you can interact, either directly or via Designer. (all other levels are scaled proportionally). When in DMX 'In' operation, and you send a command to set a DMX channel A channel pertaining to a load (also known as control gear or LIU), see entry for load. A ballast has one channel, whereas a dimmer or relay unit can have numerous channels. to 100 %, the controlled SDIM Stands for ‘Serial DIMming communication’. It is a Helvar communication protocol. channel goes to 100 %.
