DMX 512 Over More Than 2 km | Stage Connection Diagram via Optical Cable Through SFP
All control signals are integrated into the GigaJet Pro, which employs merging technology with automatic priority management and data backup functions.
DMX and RDM data are transmitted over optical fiber to a second GigaJet Pro, and then to a third GigaJet Pro, enabling the connection of all equipment and the transmission of multiple DMX universes over long distances.
DMX-DALI Gateway: Bridging Two Lighting Control Worlds
Lighting control in architectural and entertainment environments often involves two dominant but very different protocols: DMX512 and DALI. While DMX is preferred for dynamic, fast-changing effects, DALI excels in commercial and architectural settings where smooth dimming, status feedback, and group control are essential.
How to Use DMX over Fiber for Reliable, Long-Distance Lighting Control
In modern architectural and stage lighting installations, where long-distance signal transmission and immunity to interference are critical, fiber-optic lines provide a powerful alternative to traditional copper-based DMX wiring. Sundrax offers dedicated solutions that enable stable and scalable DMX over fiber in real-world applications.
Addressable Pixel Controller for LED Strips and Nodes: Control Every Light Individually
In the world of dynamic lighting design, nothing offers more visual impact than addressable pixel-based systems. From animated façades to immersive stage backdrops, the ability to control each pixel individually opens the door to stunning motion effects, gradients, and color sequences.
What is RDM in DMX Systems: How It Works and Why It’s Needed in Practice 🌟
With the increasing scale of lighting installations, the need for convenient management and diagnostics grows. This is where the RDM protocol comes to the rescue—a standard that enhances DMX with the capability of two-way communication. We discussed with an engineer from Sundrax Aleksandar Nikolic how RDM works and how it helps technicians save time during installation and maintenance.
Why a Reset Button on a DMX512 Controller is a Bad Idea 🚨
In professional environments, DMX controllers are pivotal for managing lighting—whether for architectural illumination, theater stages, or urban landscapes. Their stability is critical, and the presence of a reset button on the controller’s casing may seem trivial but is, in fact, a warning sign of potential flaws in the device’s design.
Seven Mistakes When Connecting DMX Systems 🌟
MX systems are widely used in stage lighting to control lighting devices with precision. However, when setting up these systems, mistakes are often made that can cause malfunctions or even equipment failure. In this article, we’ll explore the seven most common mistakes when connecting DMX systems and share practical tips on how to avoid them.
How to Distribute the Signal in a DMX Network for 100+ Fixtures: Diagram, Calculations, and Recommendations 🌟
As the number of fixtures in DMX networks increases, the load on the line grows, raising the risk of failures and signal loss. Incorrect distribution can lead to erratic operation or complete equipment failure. We consulted with an engineer from Sundrax Alex Chomsky to learn how to properly design a DMX network for large-scale projects.
