Important facts

  • The products use RDM to communicate with each other, so the RDM Disable switch must be OFF when using remote (slave) Light-Switch.
  • If there is a splitter between any of the Light-Switch units, the splitter must be enabled for RDM.
  • The DMX port is used for both output and snapshot (input). It changes direction based on the operating mode.
  • If a remote (slave) Light-Switch flashes the UP LED, this means it has not been connected by the master. (Check points above and wiring).
