DMXDart Operation

5 – Parameters
1 – Type Setup: This selection allows you to configure the characteristics
of the DMX output signal. Sets the “flavor” of the DMX signal: A, B, C, or
U. A through C are factory defaults, and U is a user programmable type
for “tweaking” the DMX output. This can be especially useful in
determining why a device that is considered to be DMX does not respond
to a particular console
(More required… DAVE ??)
2 – Sync Setup: Turns on the Scope Sync port, and sets up the portion of
the signal to sync to. (See Rx Sync Test for further information)
3 – Data Loss Test: Intentionally transmits poor DMX signal, manipulated
by the user. Inserts 100ms to 2 s of “dead time” into the signal at a
specified point. Tests DMX reception equipment for its reaction to poor
data.
Printing DMX Data
Note:
Printing requires the optional Hewlett Packard 82240B Thermal Infrared printer.
From the Transmit DMX512 submenu, press 5 – Print DMX Data to enter the
print screen.
