- Page 13 5988 RadioScan Spectrum Analyzer 5.9 Multiverse IDs The Multiverse IDs feature is for users of City Theatrical Multiverse wireless DMX, and will describe the SHoW IDs that may be selected for various areas of the band (either 2.4GHz or 900MHz).
- Page 14 5988 RadioScan Spectrum Analyzer Begin your thought process of creating a broadcast plan by deciding how many universes need to be transmitted. SHoW IDs that carry fewer universes travel longer distances and often have more perfect fidelity than SHoW IDs that carry more universes. A good rule of thumb is to choose SHoW IDs with lower universe capacity whenever possible, and spread out your broadcast over more than one radio when possible, such as splitting your broadcast between the 2.4GHz and 900MHz radios on a 5910 Multiverse Transmitter.
