RDM Device List
The RDM Device List is the main RDM Window. This is a standard list of purely standard RDM
information. It is the same for all devices.
This list allows you to identify devices, change basic settings of the device (like start address,
personality or mode) patch to Cobalt channels and access deeper settings of devices, if that
functionality is supported by those devices.
This list also shows conflict or mismatch states in red. In the case of overlapping device addresses,
you must solve these overlaps manually by choosing and entering new starting addresses for those
fixtures. RDM will send the new address setting to the fixture for you.
Note that in the Browser there is a command to "Clear offline RDM", use this command to clean up
the list if you have removed devices, or moved devices from port to port on the Gateway.
The information displayed is the standard information within the RDM Specification:
MANUFACTURER:
MODEL:
LABEL:
DMX PERSONALITY: This displays the actual device setting and will match to a template in
Cobalt)
DMX FOOTPRINT: The number of outputs needed
PARAMETERS: This is the number of settings within the device that can be displayed or edited using
RDM. This is not the same as the DMX controllable parameters (attributes) of the device.
SENSORS: Device Sensors
SUB DEVICES: If the device has more devices associated with it, for example, you have one RDM-
capable dimmer rack that contains 6 individual dimmers, the rack settings would be found under
Parameters and individual dimmer settings would be seen in the Sub Devices tab.
