Introduction
The EX-100 is a MIDI to DMX converter. It allows you to use MIDI commands from your MIDI sequencer,
MIDI keyboard , MIDI Footswitch, or any other MIDI output device, to control your DMX stage lighting. If
used with a sequencer, you can completely automate your stage lighting so that your lighting changes
will be in perfect time with your songs. Just think of the possibilities. The EX-100 has two separate DMX
outputs so that each side of the stage can have their own daisy chained output.
Operation
PWR LED
TheEX-100 does not have a power switch. The PWR led
indicates that power is connected to the EX-100 device.
Midi Channel Select
The MIDI Channel Select Switch, which consist of 4 small
DIP switches, MUST be configured for the desired Midi
Channel that you wish to use to control the EX-100. It can
be changed with power applied, on the fly if desired.
