12-24V RGB DMX Decoder 3x8A
User Manual
Introduction
This DMX decoder is designed to convert the universal standard DMX512/1990 into analogue signal to control either 12V or 24V RGB LED tape. This model can drive 8A per channel and it simply assigns a colour per DMX channel.
DC power input and colour channel outputs are connected via screw terminals. DMX input and through connection are also via screw terminals with the start address set by side mounted DIP switches. Powered by a 12V or 24V power supply, this decoder enables 3 channel DMX control of red, green and blue output.
Features
- 3 channel DMX control for RGB colour mixing
- 256 levels of brightness
- Up to 8A output per channel
- 12V or 24V operation
- Screw terminal DMX input

Installation
When installing multiple DMX Decoders, you can ‘daisy chain’ them together linking the positive to positive, negative to negative and ground to ground terminals.
-Please note it is highly recommended to use shielded twisted pair cables for this task.
If you want the DMX Controller Sliders to operate the three RGB Channels simultaneously, then you need to make sure all the DIP Switches are set to 1000000000 (DMX Address 001)
If you want to operate the next strip of LED tape independently on the next set of sliders on your DMX Controller, then you would have the first DMX Decoder DIP Switches set to 1000000000 (DMX Address 001) and the next one to 0010000000 (DMX Address 004) and so on. (Please see the highlighted DMX addresses below)
