Product Description

Doug Fleenor Design DMX96ANL 96-Channel DMX to Analog Converter - 0-10V Output

The DMX to Analog Converter decodes 96 consecutive DMX512 channels to 0-10 volt output. The starting address is selected by an easy to read (and set) three digit push-wheel switch. The switch is mounted on the front panel along with indicators for power, signal, and an output 1 mimic. The DMX in and through connectors and the four female DB-25 output connectors are located on the back panel. All connectors feature gold plated contacts. The output pinouts are easy to remember with the pin number equaling the output number, pin 25 being common. The DMX512 input is optically isolated from the outputs and is protected against miswiring up to 120 volts. The (defeatable) hold feature holds the last look indefinitely upon loss of DMX. A test feature brings any output to full by setting the front panel switch to 601 - 696.
