Paul Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Installation: don't use microphone cable for DMX, make sure you terminate the end of the line, and you'll be fine. If it doesn't work, and even if you're really sure you've done it right, swap over pins 2&3 on the DMX connector, just to see if wiring it *wrong* makes it all start working. Operation: read the manuals! Crammed full of nuggets of useful information. Also have a good read of these forums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-=Phantom=- Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 I dont have a problem not terminating the DMX. Though it goes Desk --> Dimmer --> Dimmer --> Dimmer --> Mover --> Mover --> Mover -->Mover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam.henderson Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Have a good read of the manual- may seem a bit daunting at first but easy once you get started (very addictive reading ). For some quick pointers look at my Guide a link to which and information is in the sticky topic at the top!. Here is some random info; F1= Locks the scree Hold down and attribute (i.e. colour, beamshape, poss) and you will see all the relevent palettes! Hold down + and - to enter super user Opperation is speeded up greatly with a monitor and keyboard. The Desk has two DMX univereses! Thats enough to be getting on with, I will post again when blessed with some more time!
