Regarding RDM
RDM stands for "Remote Device Management" and makes remote control of devices
connected to the DMX bus possible. RDM is an extension of the DMX512 protocol.
RDM is especially useful when the device is installed in a remote area.
RDM is integrated in DMX without influencing the connections. RDM data is
transmitted via the standard XLR pins 1 and 2 and does not require a new cable type.
RDM-ready and conventional DMX devices can be operated in one DMX line. If DMX
splitters are used, they must support RDM.
Data backup [Data backup]
All settings of a light show, i.e. DMX settings, illumination scenes and chases can be
stored on a USB memory device and recalled later. 16 memory banks are available.
1. Connect a USB memory device to the controller's USB port.
2. Call the menu item with the pan wheel and confirm with ENTER.
3. Select the setting [YES] with the pan wheel confirm with ENTER. The display
indicates "Press number key Select file" (select memory bank with number button).
4. Select a memory bank with one of the number buttons 1-16. The display indicates
e.g. "FILE:1" and a progress bar.
• Each memory bank must be stored separately. If the control LED of a number button
lights, this memory bank has been stored on the USB memory device before.
• The data will be stored in the folder "DMX Move Control 512" located on the root
directory of the USB memory device. A file with the extension "PRO" will be created
