You can remotely configure the fixture over DMX using RDM. Martin offers a
range of suitable RDM-compatible controllers.
A full list of the RDM functions that the machine supports is given at the end of
this section. These functions are generally referred to using the more specific
term 'PIDs' or 'Parameter IDs'.
Scanning for RDM devices on the data link
Before you can communicate with fixtures using RDM, you must send a scan
command (also called a device discovery command) to all the devices on the
data link so that the RDM controller can identify them. It does this by retrieving
each device's factory-set unique identifier (UID). This process can take some
time depending on the number of devices on the link.
To identify the fixtures on the link:
1. Check that the fixtures are correctly connected to the RDM controller on
the data link and that power is applied to all fixtures.
2. Give the controller time to identify the devices on the link and prepare
for communication with the devices.
