Remote DMX addressing (RDMX) / Address Via DMX- This function allows the DMX
address to be changed remotely from a DMX console. This setting requires special settings
for both the controller and the fixture. RDMX is on by default. This function may be turned on
and off, and is “ON” be default. Follow the procedure listed below to access the RDMX
functions:
Fixture Settings:
1. Access the main menu and use the UP or DOWN to get to the
“Personality” menu, then press ENTER
2. Once in the “Personalities” menu, tap the UP or Down to get to the
“Status Settings “ menu, press ENTER.
3. Once in the “Status Settings” tap the UP or Down to get to the “Address via
DMX” function and press ENTER.
4. “Address via DMX” is the function that turn the RDMX function on and off.
Press ENTER and be sure the function is turned on.
5. Press the UP button to display “ON” to activate this function, or “OFF” to
deactivate this function.
6. Press ENTER to confirm.
7. Press MODE/ESC to return to the main menu.

Controller Settings:
1. Set the DMX value of channel 1 to a value of 7.
2. Set the DMX value of channel 2 to a value of 7 or 8. When channel 2 is
set to "7" you can adjust the starting address between 1 and 255. When
set to "8" you can adjust the starting address between 256 and 511.
3. Use channel 3 to set your desired DMX starting address. For example: If
you want to set the starting address to 57, set channel 1 to a value of “7,”
set channel 2 to a value of “7” and use channel 3 to set your address to
57 by selecting a channel value of 57. Example 2: If you want to set the
starting address to 420, set channel 1 to a value of “7,” channel 2 to "8"
and channel 3 to "164" (256+164=420).
4. Wait for approximately 20 seconds for the unit to complete the
address reset function.

You are awesome as always. i m gonna try it and see if it works... thanks again

You are welcome.

Hi!
just a few short questions:

When I have a system with multiple RDMX-enabled fixtures, my console will assign the DMX Address to all of them simultaneously, right?
I do not see any way that the controller can individually address multiple RDMX fixtures in a system.

Are there any additional security features to the "protocol"?
Will the RDMX option stay turned on at the fixture after the address was assigned?

The way I understand it, the address will be accepted by the fixture when it has received a number of DMX frames that follow a certain channel pattern. I am sure this channel pattern will be re-producable by accident in a productive environment. That would mean that I might instantly and accidentally set all my connected and RDMX-enabled fixtures to a new address!?

Hi Zap, Welcome to the forums.
I don't think it will do all at once simply because it is not really the console doing the RDMX it is the fixtures. The fixtures are listening for only their first three channel to be within the values I posted above and I believe that if any other channel after 3 is on a value higher than 0 it will not bee seen as a RDMX command. Does that make sense?
Sincerely,
