NOTE: In order for RDM to work properly, RDM enabled equipment must be used throughout

the entire system, including DMX data splitters and wireless systems.

Remote Device Management (RDM) is a protocol that sits on top of the DMX512 data standard for

lighting, allowing the DMX systems of the fixtures to be modified and monitored remotely. This proto-

col is ideal for instances in which a unit is installed in a location that is not easily accessible.

With RDM, the DMX512 system becomes bi-directional, allowing a compatible RDM enabled con-

troller to send out a signal to devices on the wire, as well as allowing the fixture to respond (known

as a GET command). The controller can then use its SET command to modify settings that would

typically have to be changed or viewed directly via the unit's display screen, including the DMX

Address, DMX Channel Mode, and Temperature Sensors.

Please be aware that not all RDM devices support all RDM features, and therefore it is important

to check beforehand to ensure that the equipment that you are considering includes all of the fea-

tures that you require.
