PXM PX359 User manual

  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant, and I've reviewed the user manual for the PXM PX359 DMX-RS232 Interface. This document provides detailed information on how to use this device to convert DMX signals to RS-232 commands. It covers network settings, DMX address configuration, RS-232 parameters, command definitions, and RDM protocol settings. I'm ready to answer any questions you might have about the PX359.
  • What is the default IP address of the PX359?
    How can I reset the device to factory settings?
    How many commands can be defined in the device?
    Can I set the DMX address via the web interface?
    Does the device support DHCP?
