Remote Device Management
Remote Device Management (RDM) is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate bi-
directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller's User Manual or with the manufacturer
as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The COLORado PXL Curve 12 supports RDM protocol that
allows feedback to make changes to menu map options.
