4.3 DMX Connection

For DMX control, connect a DMX cable from your DMX controller to the 'DMX IN' port on the light bar. If linking multiple units, connect a DMX cable from the 'DMX OUT' of the first unit to the 'DMX IN' of the next unit in the chain.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Control Panel Overview

The light bar features a 4-button LED display on the rear for menu navigation and setting adjustments. Use the 'MENU', 'UP', 'DOWN', and 'ENTER' buttons to select modes, adjust parameters, and confirm settings.

5.2 DMX Control and RDM Compatibility

The OPPSK Light Bar is fully DMX512 compatible, allowing for precise control over colors, effects, and intensity. It supports various DMX channel modes to suit different control needs. Refer to the DMX chart in the appendix (if applicable) for detailed channel assignments.

This fixture is also RDM (Remote Device Management) compatible. RDM allows you to remotely configure and monitor the fixture's settings from your DMX controller, eliminating the need for physical access to the unit for adjustments like DMX address or mode changes.

5.4 Detachable Diffuser Cover

The light bar features a detachable diffuser cover. With the cover installed, the light output is homogenized, creating a smooth, wall-wash effect without visible individual LED 'eyes'. Removing the cover provides a more direct, intense beam, suitable for pixel-mapped displays or brighter illumination.
