User Guide, Rev: C/e, March 2023 17 / 33
DMX CONTROL
The MDG ATMe can be controlled via a DMX512-A USITT standard protocol.
WARNING
Activating the «DMX» mode («MODE
DMX»), controls the MDG ATMe only by DMX
signal. If the DMX wire is unplugged or DMX signal is lost, the generator initiates an
automatic shutdown procedure.
Activating the «AUTO» mode («MODE
AUTO»), controls MDG ATMe by DMX, only if
there is a signal. If the DMX wire is unplugged or DMX signal is lost, the generator keeps
WARNING
In «AUTO Mode», DMX commands always take precedence over Local commands.
The MDG ATMe provides a simple way to check if there is DMX signal:
The user can change the DMX Start Address in the DMX,RDM Menu («
DMX Add»), and choose any value
between 1 and 510 (512, last DMX channel).
The generator uses three (3) DMX channels:
• Channel 1 0 (0%) < UNIT OFF ≤ 128 (50%) < UNIT ON ≤ 255 (100%)
• Channel 2 0 (0%) – 255 (100%), HAZE OUTPUT (from minimum to maximum)
• Channel 3 0 (0%) < HAZE OFF ≤ 128 (50%) < HAZE ON ≤ 255 (100%)
These channels have the same behaviour than the menus of the local interface (see Operating instructions
paragraph).
