New Person Needs Help


OneOff

Recommended Posts

Hi, I am new to this, I need your help!

 

I have:

 

One Fat Frog lighting desk

 

48 Dimmer 15a patch bay Betapack

 

1 Demux 48

 

Lots of Generics plugged up to IWB's going to the patch bay

 

A few DMX intelligent fixtures.

 

My Question:

 

Where do I connect the chain of DMX intelligent fixtures to the Lighting desk? Do I plug it into the back of the lighting desk - the port that says DMXout (next to the DMX port connected to the Demux)?

 

What is the DMXthrough port on the Demux 48? Do I connect my chain of Intelligents to this?

 

Thanks

The DMX through port on the demux simply allows you to continue your DMX chain to your next device. In your case, this could be your intelligent fixtures. You could also use the second output on the Frog (though it has been 8 years since I've used one).

It doesn't matter where you connect your DMX devices you could do:

 

Desk > Demux > Intelli 1 > Intelli 2 > and so on

 

Desk > Intelli 1 >Intelli 2 > Demux > Intelli 3...
