  • Page 3: Description

    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.
  • Page 4: Safety Conditions

    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.
  • Page 5 11. The device cannot be used in places with temperature lower than +2°C or higher than +40°C. 12. Clean with damp duster only – the PX815 must be completely disconnected from the power supply and control connectors at this time. 13.

    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.
  • Page 9: Dmx Address

    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.
  • Page 10: No Dmx Signal Response

    5.4 No DMX signal response In the menu you can set the reaction of the device to the disappearance of DMX signal for each channel individually. The possible options are: OFF – switching off the channel, • On – switching on the channel, •...
  • Page 11: Hysteresis Thresholds

    5.5 Hysteresis thresholds The device can employ hysteresis which prevents relay contact vibration during switching on and off. Two hysteresis thresholds are applied, one for switching to the On position, the other – to the OFF position. If the OFF hysteresis threshold is below the On, a normal characteristic is obtained.

  • Page 16: Dmx Signal Connecting

    The device update was also presented in detail on our YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSlFGeXVR_k 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.
  • Page 17: Rdm - Available Parameters

    RDM – available parameters The PX815 supports the DMX-RDM protocol. DMX protocol allows only of a one-way data transmission, while its extension the RDM protocol can transmit information in two directions. This makes possible to simultaneously send and receive information, and hence the possibility of monitoring activities of the compatible devices.
