ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
DMX512
Often shortened to DMX (Digital Multiplex), this communication protocol is used mainly to control dimmers and multi-parameter fixtures. A universe of DMX is defined as 512 channels. DMX sends a nearly continuous stream of level information for each control channel. It is a form of RS-485 digital serial communication.
RDM
Remote Device Management (ANSI E1.20) is a protocol enhancement to DMX512 that allows low-speed bidirectional communication between a system controller and attached RDM devices over a standard DMX line. This protocol allows remote configuration, status monitoring, and management of devices.
