DESCRIPTION
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Remote Device Management (RDM) is an enhancement of
DMX that allows bi-directional control and feedback from
lighting xtures and devices.
DMX/RDM provides a number of benets for stakeholders
throughout the construction, commissioning and property
management stages.
• Simplify xture discovery: RDM controllers can discover
any RDM-enabled devices on the network.
• Improve error reporting: An alert system reports back
potential issues, including “Over Temperature” and “Over
Voltage”.
• Enable remote DMX addressing: With RDM,
technicians can remotely query and update the DMX
address and other parameters of the xture prole.
• Update rmware: Allows for easy discovery and
updating of the xture rmware via the new xture
rmware bootloader.
DMX/RDM PROTOCOL LIMITS
Data length: 1000’ between boosted devices
Number of devices connected to a CBX: 32 per output
Cascading CBX limit: 4

Lumenlife™
Lumenlife™, featured in the xture monitoring section of the LumenID™ V3 software, is a patented method for estimating the life
expectancy of a xture, which takes into account environmental factors that inuence lifetime, rather than merely the past hours of
operation.
With Lumenlife, we can better estimate when a luminaire reaches L70 and issue alerts as the luminaire starts to approach the end of its
useful lifetime. For more information, please consult the Lumenpulse Terms and Conditions at http://www.lumenpulse.com/en/terms.
