ADDICT v3.0.1 User Manual DMX512 and RDM (Remote Device Management) Functionality

on each individual device to report the available parameters and their data formats (as specified

by the RDM standard). Note that a device is not required to report all its implemented

manufacturer-specific parameters, and so these unreported parameters cannot be configured

using the ADDICT

. Also, devices only provide information on how much data to use for a

parameter and don’t specify what the data means, so it may also be necessary to have a

datasheet from the manufacturer when using these parameters.

Setup Device – SLAMMO Specific (Creative Lighting specific parameter)

Some Creative Lighting Control Freak

devices are capable of being controlled by more than one

interface (e.g. DMX, DALI or DSI) and the Device Mode page allows for the current operating

mode to be selected using RDM. Note that the device mode selected by RDM may still be

overridden by dipswitches on the device itself (if fitted). The current device mode is displayed

when the page is selected (if the device mode is being overridden by dipswitches, then the

switch selected mode will be displayed)

Press the increase and decrease buttons to select the device mode. Press enter to set the

selected device’s mode. After being set, the device mode will be retrieved again for

confirmation. If the device mode is being overridden, then the overriding mode will again be

displayed, but the internal RDM device mode will be whatever was just set (and will be the

operating mode if the override is removed).

Similar commands exist to change the following properties;

• Output Inversion

• Channel mode (1, 2, 3, or 4) Outputs

• Log or Linear Dimming
