1.1 About the DMX to RS unit
Overview
The projector ha s no connection for DMX and cann ot be controlled via lighting d esk or other DMX contr
olling devices. With the
introduction of the DMX to RS unit, DMX control of the projector is m ade possible. This unit can be connected to the RS232 input of
the projector or for FLM only, wh en there is still an empty input slot, it can be inserted in that input slot.
Philosophy
We made this product to make it easier to integrate a Barco Projector into a show environment by integrate it with a lighting controller
over DMX when used together with a MediaServer or M oving Mirror.
Limitation
Since the DMX – RS was done long after the hardware of the Projectors, there are a few facts that are directly related to the hardware
design
Information
Please do not ex pect the Projector to respond in the same way a moving light d oes. This is because of the hardware limitation. T he
chart b elow will giv e you some indications in order to und erstand the delay. Please use the u nit and get to know the per sonality of
it, and w e are sure you will enjoy it
