User manual JBSYSTEMS LIGHT DMS 26 V 1.0

[. . . ] Backup: when the DMX-signal on input A fails, the DMX-signal in input B takes over immediately. Merger: DMX-signals from 2 different controllers can be combined and send over 1 cable, you can choose the start address of the second controller. The splitter function distributes the DMX-signal(s) from the input(s) over 6 identical outputs that are 100% isolated from each other: problems that occur on 1 output will not influence the other outputs!The timing of the DMX-outputs can be adapted from 23ms to 45ms, increasing compatibility while connecting "slow" DMX-devices to "fast" DMX-controllers. [. . . ] This appliance must be earthed to in order comply with safety regulations. In order to prevent electric shock, do not open the cover. Apart from the mains fuse there are no user serviceable parts inside. never repair a fuse or bypass the fuse holder. Always replace a damaged fuse with a fuse of the same type and electrical specifications!In the event of serious operating problems, stop using the appliance and contact your dealer immediately. Please use the original packing when the device is to be transported. Due to safety reasons it is prohibited to make unauthorized modifications to the unit. Check the contents: Check that the carton contains the following items: DMS26 DMX merger/splitter unit User manual Some important instructions: Before you start using this unit, please check if there's no transportation damage. Should there be any, do not use the device and consult your dealer first. Important: This device left our factory in perfect condition and well packaged. It is absolutely necessary for the user to strictly follow the safety instructions and warnings in this user manual. Any damage caused by mishandling is not subject to warranty. The dealer will not accept responsibility for any resulting defects or problems caused by disregarding this user manual. Keep this booklet in a safe place for future consultation. If you sell the fixture, be sure to add this user manual. To protect the environment, please try to recycle the packing material as much as possible. Clean by wiping with a polished cloth slightly dipped with water. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which will damage the unit. If, for any reason, controller A fails, controller B (the backup controller) takes over immediately. On the A/B INPUT LEDs (6) you can always check which controller is in command!When both controllers fail, you can decide how the outputs should react: see "NO INPUT option" below. [. . . ] Both controllers work simultaneously so both A/B INPUT (6) indicators are lit. The DMX-values of both controllers are sent to the outputs but for corresponding channels, the channel with the highest value will be routed to the outputs. Some low cost Chinese DMX-equipment is not able to work at these high refresh rates, as a result data is lost and all kinds of unpredictable behavior occurs. To solve this problem the DMS-26 is able to adapt the refresh rate in a range from fast "23ms(44Hz)" to slow "45ms (22Hz)" for increased compatibility between DMX-units. [. . . ]
