DMXcat-ETM (P/N 6100)
DMXcat-ETM (P/N 6100) is an expansion to City Theatrical’s DMXcat® Multi Function Test Tool
(P/N 6000) system of solutions that allows for
Ethernet control of a lighting fixture. In addition to all the functions DMXcat users currently enjoy,
including utilization of the DMXcat free smartphone application for iPhone and Android to plan, install, operate, and maintain theatrical and studio lighting equipment, DMXcat-E allows users to view and send Ethernet protocols, including ArtNet and Streaming ACN (sACN).
The DMXcat-E also allows users to perform
cable testing of 5-pin XLR and Ethernet cables. DMXcat-E can read SMPTE timecode as well as MIDI timecode and regular MIDI for audio and other entertainment projects. DMXcat-E allows for bookmarking of timecode as well as the ability to save a file for sharing and note taking. DMXcat-E also allows users to view DMX timings and PoE voltages. The DMXcat-E hardware is complete with a flashlight, buzzer, and USB-C charging. As more manufacturers implement RDM Net into their
fixtures, the DMXcat-E is ready to be the essential test tool for the future of lighting.
