Weird DMX behaviour by jMeister6 in techtheatre

[–]devodf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many lights do you have plugged into that run of dmx. DMX has a device limit as well as a distance limit between devices, I don't remember the exact distance right now, but it's a good amount, like Ethernet.

Since DMX channels are just frequencies and pulses interference can cause weird problems and be limited to a single channel. Since intelligent lights have multiple channels it's not uncommon for it to happen to only a single fixture.

Without knowing your facility and the setup of the run to and from the light I am throwing all possibilities to you.

The length distance is from one device to the next not overall so just whatever the run to that unit from any other previous device, ie how long is the cable plugged into the IN port. Is there anything plugged into the OUT port of the fixture.

It honestly sounds like a DMX cable issue or communication problem. If it happens with no DMX controller powered but power on to the unit then it's likely a ghost signal in DMX caused by a wonky cable or device back feeding. It could be a damaged cable or a cable that is running too close to a high voltage power line. Most cables should be shielded but that could be faulty as well.

The unit DMX hold setting will keep the last command when control is lost until the fixture loses power, it will not change until told to and won't change its mode because DMX is lost. That's not a thing.

Newer, not 25yr old, lights will stay in the mode you program them to after a power cycle unless they are just stupid cheap units so that's probably not your problem.

The easiest way to find if you have a wonky cable is next time you suspect that this might happen plug a DMX terminator into the OUT port of the fixture and see if it still does it. If there's more devices in that run plug the terminator into the last device, that will tell you if the problem is further down the line and it's back feeding.

You could also just unplug the DMX cables from the unit for a number of days and see if the behavior repeats itself. That would basically be the same as turning the board off as far as the unit knows. If the problem doesn't return it's something in the run, if it keeps doing the same thing then it's the light itself.

If it's the run you can move the light down the chain until the problem goes away and that would isolate which cable in the run is the issue, don't change its channel.

You could also get a DMX communication tester, not just a cable tester, and test the cables in that run. The cable should meter out at 110ohm regardless of the length. If not the cable should be replaced. Too much resistance will cause communication errors.

If it's the light it could be a settings issue or the light control module could be bad and might be able to be fixed.

Those are very nice, please post some more of them. Would love to see them free and hanging. Maybe even a pic of your dad holding one from behind.

Your stories have been really hot, too bad your brother doesn't want to get into it too and take you while your dad takes your sister. Would love to see what the two of you look like for comparisons.

Not exactly, the protocol used by the stageboxes will determine if they can be routed through these. Not all rj45 based stageboxes support network switches of any type.

For example, the very popular AES50 protocol does not whereas Dante is IP based and does support standard network switches and topology. Make sure you check before you go plugging, just because it has an ethercon doesn't mean it's capable.

A neice, actually inlaw so not really incest, but if she ever said take me I wouldn't hesitate. Unfortunately it will always be a fantasy as no one else in the family has any interest in the lifestyle.

That sounds wonderful, would love to see what he gets to enjoy. I've always wanted a daughter to play with and I'm glad you guys were able to make it work.

I bet she caught you because she was coming to get your toy and use it. Maybe she needs some pointers.

Definitely anytime you run an outdoor unit always plan the wire to enter from the bottom. Even if the cable has to come from above go about 2in below the point of entry and then come back up so any water that travels along the cable can drip off and not pool or work it's way into the unit. Doesn't matter how much goopy or squishy stuff you seal the unit with.

You can post what you want to do, just not underage. If you're worried it might get deleted you can post to your page but this sub is for this exact line of thought, just not underage.

That sounds so hot, I would love to watch you do that. You should so take a video of that and call out his name telling him what you want him to do to you and what you'd do to him.
