Thanks everyone for the kind words! Sorry I've been away for a while. Bogged down in home improvements not tiki-related. Will be working on some new special effects in the next few months. HG, below is what I used for some of the other DMX components. 24-Channel DMX Controller to drive LED strips. An RGB LED strip will use three channels, one for each color. A single-color LED strip only needs one channel. 4-Channel DMX Dimmer Pack to turn Kona Joe lights and misters on/off. Simple 110V AC outlet controlled by DMX. DMX is connected in a daisy chain. Most devices will have a connector-in and a connector-out to continue the chain. Mine is wired from the USB controller to the 24-channel DMX pack to the 4-channel dimmer pack and then to a DMX terminator (small plug-in device that ends the chain). Connector/cable style of choice is usually XLR3 which you can get through Monoprice. Since the devices are on the same chain, they need to be configured with different addresses. The product manual will go over how to do this. Happy Tiki Building! |
