Description DMX/Relay Interface is a relay controlled by DMX-512 signal available in two versions: 2 or 3 channels. In the version with two channels, the possible output load is 16A / channel, while in the version with three channels up to 13A / channel.
Safety conditions PX815 is a device powered by 12 – 24V DC safety voltage, however, during its installation and use 230V AC voltage may be used, which may result in electric shock if the safety rules are not followed. The following rules must be strictly observed: 1.

Device programming After you switch on the module, its display shows the program version for a brief moment. To access the main menu, press enter, and the display will show Adr. Press previous or next to select the appropriate menu and press enter to confirm your selection.
5.3 DMX address In the PX815 device menu, you can set the DMX address in groups for all output channels at once in the range 1 – 512. NOTE! If, after setting the address, the channels go beyond the DMX addressing, they will be assigned to channel 512.

5.5 Temperature limitation You can read the device temperature in the menu. The value is expressed in [°C]. ENTER 2 x NEXT ENTER The device has implemented switching off the device after exceeding the temperature of +80°C. Reactivation will take place after the device cools down to the temperature of +70°C.
5.6 Default settings and device errors If you have any difficulty accessing the device menu, e.g. it is not possible to enter a particular menu level or it is necessary to restore the device to its default settings, follow the instructions below. In the first case, when a particular menu level cannot be accessed or menu items are displayed incorrectly, this may indicate that a saving-in- memory error has occurred.
+ prev – enable or disable channel 1 esc + next – enable or disable channel 2 esc + enter – enable or disable channel 3 NOTE! In PX815-2, the esc + enter key combination is not used.
DMX signal connecting PX815 have to be connected to DMX line in serial mode, with no branches on DMX control cable. That means the DMX line, from the signal source, must be connected to DMX IN pins of PX815 and later, directly from DMX THRU pins to the next device in DMX chain.
