RDM FUNCTIONS / REMOTE SETUP
RDM means "Remote Device Management". This projector works with a brief set of RDM-functions which
means that it can setup a bi-directional communication with an RDM-compatible DMX-controller. Some of
these functions are briefly explained below, others will be added in the future.
 The DMX-controller sends out a "discovery command", all RDM devices respond and send their unique
device ID.
 The DMX-controller asks each RDM device for some basic data so it knows which devices are connected.
The POWERPIXEL projector will respond:
 Device name: PIXEL4-RGB or PIXEL8-RGB
 Manufacturer: Briteq®
 Category: LED Dimmer
 Firmware: x.x.x.x
 DMX address: xxx
 DMX footprint: xx
 Personality: xx
 The DMX-controller can send certain commands to each RDM device which allow remote setup of the
units. Thanks to this the POWERPIXEL can be setup remotely.
The following functions can be managed remotely:
No more need to take a ladder and set all units one by one!
 DMX START ADDRESS: The start address can be set remotely from 001 to xxx.
 PERSONALITY: The DMX working mode (DMX-chart) can be set remotely.
These 2 functions make it possible to prepare a complete DMX-patch of all projectors on the DMX-
controller and send these data to all projectors at once. More functions will be added later.
MAINTENANCE
 Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
 Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit has been cooled down.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
 All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be
corroded.
 Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any
deformation.
 When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
 The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a
small problem is detected.
 In order to protect the device from overheat the cooling fans (if any) and ventilation openings should be
cleaned monthly.
 The interior of the device should be cleaned annually using a vacuum cleaner or air-jet.
 The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp,
smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit's optics.
 Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
 Always dry the parts carefully.
Attention: We strongly recommend internal cleaning to be carried out by qualified personnel!
