DMX-512 Address Selection on the Kp-300 (v3.0+)
(TWO HEXADECIMAL DIPSWITCHES)
To support the DMX-512 input, the v3.0+ Kp-300 adds a two position rotary
DipSwitch which is used to set the DMX-512 address
The DMX-512 addressing is zero-based, HEXadecimal numbering.
Valid addresses between 00h and FFh. We typically set the Kp-300 to an address of
00h thru 02h, and then address the motion base legs and outputs for starting the videos,
lights and ʻ4dʼ effects starting at 03h.
The Kp-300 requires DMX-512 that includes GilderChecksums. If receiving DMX-512
without valid checksums, the DMX-512 Receive LED on the back of the Kp-300 will not
flash and only the Show Start Button LEDs will follow the incoming the DMX-512. The
signals like the Show Start Button Enable Inputs, blocking valve enable, and automatic
HPU start/stop will not work when the GilderChecksums are invalid.
