Safety and Notes
• Product should be installed and serviced in accordance with applicable national,
state, and local building and electrical codes.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure that the main power source and circuit
breakers are switched o󰀨 before performing any installation or wiring procedures.
• A DMX signal amplier will be required if more than 32 decoders are connected or if
using excessively long signal wiring. No more than ve signal ampliers should be
used in series.
• If recoil e󰀨ect occurs because of long signal wires or bad signal quality, try to connect
0.25 W 90–120 Ω terminal resistor at the end of each DMX signal line.
Check product label for specific electrical
specifications related to installation.
Improper installation will void warranty.
1. Press the MODE button to switch between DMX decoder mode, dimmer mode, and
RGB controller mode.
2. Press the SETUP button to enter settings for the selected mode, and press again to
switch between settings when there are more than one. Once the desired setting is
selected, press < or > buttons to adjustment.
3. Hold the SETUP button for several seconds or wait 30 seconds to leave setting.
4. Simultaneously hold the M and > buttons for 3 seconds to enter self-testing.
5. Hold the < and > buttons for 3 seconds to restore factory default settings.
• DMX decode start address range is from 001–999
• DMX decode modes are DIM (1 channel, single color), CCT
(2 channel, color temperature), and RGB (3 channel)
• Output PWM frequencies are Low (250 Hz), Mid (500 Hz),
Std (2 kHz), and High (8 kHz)
Note: Higher PWM frequency will cause lower output
current and higher noise, but is more suitable for camera
(less icker).
• Grey level can be set to 8 bit or 16 bit depending on DMX
master support.
• Output dimming curve can be set to standard (Gamma 1.6),
linear, or manually set from 0.1–9.9 for
special requirements.
