DMXManager User Guide

DMXManager combines, merges and converts two
separate data sources into a single output.
Alternatively, it can be used as an automatic soft
switch between two data sources.

or if the signal is unrecognizable.

Address Selection

Three rotary switches select the offset start
address for the unit in most configurations. For
dual AMX output, the address switches select the
starting dimmer number for the second AMX output
line. In merge mode, the switches set the starting
address for the second input data line. In test
mode, the switches set dimmers to full one at a
time. From left to right the switches are set as
hundreds, tens, and ones.
