Using Device List

The Device List is used to discover, configure, and monitor compatible Remote Device
Management (RDM) and network devices. RDM allows for bi-directional communication between a
RDM compatible device, such as a lighting fixture, and your desk.

Two lists, dimmer and RDM, make up the device list.

The dimmer list is the area of patch that handles setting up dimmer feedback from CEM+, CEM3,
and FDX 2000. You can also do some configuration of dimmers from this list.

The RDM List is the area of patch that handles RDM feedback with devices. You can also do some
configuration of devices from this list. Once RDM compatible devices have been patched, they keep
communicating with the desk to allow you to know when things like blown lamps happen or if a
device goes offline for some reason.

See “RDM Device List” on page 108.

The Device List displays all discovered devices during the current session and all devices that have
been stored in the show file.

Dimmer List for CEM+, CEM3, and FDX 2000

To use the Dimmer Feedback area of the Device List, you must first enable feedback. In the
network tab of the ECU, when using CEM+ or CEM3, make sure {Sensor Feedback} is enabled,
or when using FDX 2000, make sure that {FDX} is enabled. The default setting is disabled for both.

See “Interface Protocols” on page 373.

Open the Dimmer Feedback display while in the patch display by pressing {Device List}>
{Dimmers}
. When the dimmer list is opened, the dimmers will be displayed in Patch by Address
mode.

N o t e :

Desks only support RDM devices that are connected through an external ACN

gateway. Supported gateways are the ETC Net3 4 or 2 port Gateways. Gateways

need to be running version 5.1 or newer.

N o t e :

For Dimmer Feedback, these software versions are required: CEM+ v3.0 and

newer, CEM3 v1.3.1 and newer, and FDX v3.4.0 and newer.
