Controlling Lighting Systems with DMX

iControl Electronics Co., Ltd

Professional lighting is controlled with a protocol known as DMX. The object of DMX is to separate the controlling device from the circuitry that actually dims the instrument. This saves enormous expense, since heavy duty wiring no longer must be run from the lighting booth to the stage. In fact, the latest trend is to put the dimming circuitry in the lighting instruments themselves. This means lights can all be attached to a single feed which is always on. Lighting instruments are also developing new features, such as pan and tilt, color control, internal gobos
, and even built-in lasers.

This  configuration  example  (Illustration  22)  can  be  realized  in  different ways. Here we want to establish a backup source to the primary one for the  distant  site.  This  backup  source  can  be  either  a  DMX  or  an  ArtNet source. The following drawing shows the second case (artNet source).

Input/Output Box for Media Server

In this setup, the related products will be used as input/output boxes (see Illustration 12) . One outlet of the Luminex device will be set as an input in  order  to  convert  DMX  packets  from  the  lighting  desk  to  control  the ArtNet media server. Then, all the other outlets will be set to DMX output, to have artNet packets, coming from the Media server, converted to DMX
universes.
