Helpful tip - make sure to double check your off position in the dip switch app. We were getting nowhere until we realized that our "on" and "off" direction was backwards. Once we changed that setting in the app and set the address, everything was working perfectly. Great video - thanks for the help, WLH!

(it would be some other kind of dmx decoder maybe 4 or 8 ports with a 1 channel with a dimmer function and 1 for power - Data Line In from the Led Striped) All I want to is add them to each scene for a controllable on/off when I need them to come in.

@WorshipLeaderHangout5 жыл бұрын
DMX works on a 512 block grid. Each fixture takes up space on the grid starting at any available block. For example these strips take up three blocks on the grid and you can only address them in available block where you can fit three side by side. If you already have fixtures taking up blocks 1 - 50 then you would start one of your strips on block 51. It will take up 51, 52 and 53 but you only need to address it to 51. Your next strip will start at 54 and so on. I hope this helps. (you can address yours the same as mine as long as you have the available "blocks") Thanks for watching. Great worship leaders are always learning. 9 years ago I would have had no idea what I was talking about, but with lots of exposure and time with DMX and stage lighting I have learned a ton. Hope you will do the same.

If you are sure you have power and everything is connected correctly then I would double check your DMX address on your dip switch. Make sure it is set correctly.

It’s hard to troubleshoot through a comment so, I hope this helps.

I know this is late, but we used to use these exact controllers, and we ran Ethernet cable (Wire colours are perfect, and what we had available) from each set of strips (a square, bar etc) and back to a controller, where you just screw in both sets of wires. We found this way was better than having everything daisy-chained, as the brightness wouldn’t suffer as much, and it was easier to set up. We ran a 12v 30A transformer (AliExpress) to each controller, and that ran the lights fine, you can probably run about 12m on a single controller this way without them starting to be noticeably dimmer than sets that are less long.
