Mechanical Structures and Installations
● Long press SETUP key for 2s, prepare for setup system parameter:
decode mode, output PWM frequence, output brightness curve, automatic blank screen.
then short press SETUP key to switch four item.
● Decode mode: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch 1/2/4 channel decode mode("d-1","d-2" or "d-4"). When set as 1 channel
decode, the decoder occupy only 1 DMX address, and four channel output the same brightness of this DMX address.
● Output PWM frequence: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch 500Hz("F-L") or 2KHz("F-H").
Higher PWM frequency, will cause lower output current, higher power noise, but more suitable for camera(No flickers for video).
● Output brightness curve: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch linear curve("C-L") or logarithmic curve("C-E").
● Automatic blank screen: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch enable ("bon") or disable("boF") automatic blank screen.
● Long press SETUP key for 2s or timeout 10s, quit system parameter setting.

D4-WP 4 Channel Constant Voltage Waterproof DMX512 & RDM Decoder

Malfunctions analysis & troubleshooting
1. Wrong connection of R/G/B/W wires.
2. DMX decode address error.
Causes
1. Output cable is too long.
2. Wire diameter is too small.
3. Overload beyond power supply capability.
4. Overload beyond controller capability.
1. No power.
2. Wrong connection or insecure.
Wrong color
Malfunctions
Uneven intensity
between front and
rear,with voltage drop
No light
1. Reconnect R/G/B/W wires.
2. Set corrrect decode address.
Troubleshooting
1. Reduce cable or loop supply.
2. Change wider wire.
3. Replace higher power supply.
4. Add power repeater.
1. Check the power.
2. Check the connection.
● Long press ◀ and ▶ key for 2s, restore factory default parameter, display"RES".
● Factory default parameter: DMX decode mode, DMX decode start address is 1, four channel decode,
high PWM frequence output, logarithmic brightness curve, RGB mode number is 1,
dimmer mode number is 1, disable automatic blank screen.
