Martin MAC Viper Performance User Manual

RDM 17
RDM
The MAC Viper Performance can communicate using RDM (Remote Device Management) in accordance
with ESTA’s American National Standard E1.20-2006: Entertainment Technology RDM Remote Device
Management Over DMX512 Networks.
RDM is a bi-directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the open standard
for DMX512 device configuration and status monitoring.
The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without affecting existing
non-RDM equipment. It allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and receive
messages from specific fixtures.
RDM ID
Each MAC Viper Performance has a factory-set RDM UID (unique identification number) that makes it
addressable and identifiable in RDM systems. The number can be found in the control panel
INFORMATION menu under RDM UID.
RDM communication
The MAC Viper Performance supports a range of RDM PIDs (Parameter IDs). Sending
SUPPORTED_PARAMETERS and PARAMETER_DESCRIPTION commands from an RDM controller will
call up a list of the PIDs supported in the firmware version installed in the fixture.
