DMX-Fail Behavior
The DMX-RELAIS 8 INRUSH+ has a DMX-FAIL function keeping the last switching
state (HOLD) or set the predefined switching state to the set value.
In case of DMX fail the behavior can be set via the RDM parameter
DMX_FAIL_MODE or directly at the device in the menu F.
Using the buttons or the value is set in a range of 0 and 255. If or 

The DMX address assignment is described on the following pages.

DMX-RELAIS 8 INRUSH+ 12
Personality 1: Hysteresis 127/128
In this operation mode, the relays switch of each other independently, each via one
DMX channel.
The switching threshold (Hysteresis) is 127/128. That means that the relay is
switched off when the DMX value is 127 or less and that the relay is switched on
when the DMX value is 128 or greater.

Personality 2: Hysteresis 0/1
In this operation mode, the relays switch of each other independently, each via one
DMX channel.
The switching threshold (Hysteresis) is 0/1. That means that the relay is switched off
when the DMX value is 0 and that the relay is switched on when the DMX value is 1
or greater.

Personality 3: Hysteresis 100/150
In this operation mode, the relays switch of each other independently, each via one
DMX channel.
The switching threshold (Hysteresis) is 100/150. That means that the relay is
switched off when the DMX value is 100 or less and that the relay is switched on
when the DMX value is 150 or greater.

DMX-RELAIS 8 INRUSH+ 15
Personality 4: Exclusive (Jalousie-Control)
In this operation mode, 2 relays are linked to one another, so only one relay can
switch at a time.
The switching threshold (hysteresis) is 127/128, which means that the relay is
switched off when the DMX value is 127 or less. The relay is switched on when the
DMX value is 128 or greater.
However, two linked relays (1 + 2/3 + 4/5 + 6/7 + 8) cannot be switched on at the
same time.

Personality 5: Monostable 1Second (Impulse)
In this operation mode, the relays switch of each other independently, each via one
DMX channel.
As soon as the DMX value is 128 or greater, the relay switches for 1 second. After
that, the DMX value must first drop below 128 in order to trigger another switching
pulse.

Factory Reset
Before running the Factory Reset, read all steps carefully.
To reset the DMX-RELAIS 8 INRUSH+ into the delivery conditions use the RDM
parameter FACTORY_DEFAULTS or proceed as follows directly at the device:
-Turn off the device (Disconnect power supply !)
-Open housing, by carefully opening the side tab with a screw driver
-Turn the address switches 1 up to 10 on ON
-Turn on the device (Turn on power supply)
-Now, the LED next to the address switch flashes within ca. 3 seconds for 20x
During the LED flashes set switch 10 on OFF
-The Factory Reset is going to proceed
Now, the LED next to the address switch flashes with 4 short light
impulses
-Turn off the device (Disconnect power supply!)
-Set all switches on OFF
-Close housing
-Now, the device is ready for use
If a further Factory Reset is necessary, this process can be repeated
