"Innovative DMX and MIDI Products" pg 2 of 4 The DMX10V is a DMX to 10 Volt Converter / Switch / Solid State Relay Driver. Control any 0-10 volt analog equipment with a DMX source such as a DMX lighting board or any device that generates a DMX (or DMX512) signal. If solid state relays are being controlled then the "switch mode" can be used for switching the outputs. In the VARIABLE MODE the output voltage will vary from 0 to 10V in respect to the corresponding DMX level. For example if the DMX start channel is assigned to 10, and the level on channel 10 is 127, then the 1st output will be +5 volts, 0 = 0 volts, 255 = 10 volts etc. Each output will source 20mA (sinks 10mA). Useful for several applications including converting 10V dimmers (insure your dimmers work within these specifications). In the SWITCH MODE the output voltage will either be full ON or full OFF (0V or 10V) in respect to the corresponding DMX level. Useful for non varying control voltages or driving Solid State Relays (SSR) for example. The Switch output function has a threshold of 50% that will cause the outputs to either be fully on or off. To eliminate unwanted changes at the 50% level, a padded value has been implemented. To turn ON the respective output, the DMX level must be 131 or above, to turn OFF, the level must drop to 125 or below. DMX512 Input connects to the pins shown above from the DMX512 input XLR connector pins 2 and 3 respectively. The input is self terminating unless a loop through connection is provided. If so, terminate the loop through connection is this output is not used. For DX10V PCB's use the terminating switch or jumper to set. Stand Alone Mode If a DMX signal is not present the Stand Alone Mode is active. The outputs can be set to be OFF or full ON. Dip Switches NOTE V8.2x no longer requires a power reset for dip switch setting changes Dip Switch's 1~9: (Must be in the range of 1-511 to respond to the DMX input) sets the DMX512 start channel (see the DMX512 Channel Assignment Document). The 1st 10 volt output is controlled by the assigned DMX channel, the 2nd output is controlled by the assigned DMX channel +1 (consecutively) and so on. Dip Switch 10: sets the output mode for all outputs - OFF (down position) = VARIABLE MODE the outputs vary with the respective DMX levels, ON (up position) = SWITCH MODE - outputs either ON or OFF set by the threshold values mentioned above. DIP Switch 11: OFF (down position) = In the Stand Alone Mode (no DMX is present on the input terminal) all of the outputs will be OFF, ON (up position) = In the Stand Alone Mode all of the outputs will turn ON. DIP Switch 12: OFF (down position) = Normal Operation, ON (up position) = Hardware Initialization Mode. This is factory set and not needed unless installing or uninstalling a sub module, the hardware initialize dip switch requires toggling on/off indicated with a rapid yellow LED flash. This will activate or deactivate the specific modules. This sets the internal software settings for the attached hardware.

"Innovative DMX and MIDI Products" pg 3 of 4 DX10V REVISION 8.2x The DX10V Revision 8 release (August 2023) is now RDM E1.20 compliant. There are operational changes compared to prior revisions. DIP SWITCHES · The DMX start channel is now from the range of 1-511 and w/ all DMX start channel dip switches down = no response, dip 1 up = start ch 1 etc. A DMX Calculator App can be used to determine the dip switch settings · No re-power is required for any dip switch settings. · The latest setting change of: DMX start channel, Variable/Switch Mode, and/or DMX Loss Directive from either the dip switches or RDM sets will take precedence including a re-power. So dips switch settings may not show the actual setting if an RDM set command made the change(s). DATA LED: · Data LED will pulse or flicker instead of flash if a DMX error occurred while still showing DMX Data present. · Data LED will pulse anytime the respective circuit has reversed the DMX line in response to a request or discovery response DMX VALID INDICATION: · DMX is valid if received every 1.2 seconds (previously 1 second) per RDM standard RDM ADDITIONS: · RDM Type: Responder (E1.20 Compliant) · DMX LOSS DIRECTIVE [get and set]: (since power up or reset), 00=all off, 01=all on, 010=hold · LEVEL CAP [get and set]: 0-10V Output limits e.g. the 0-10V max of 90% · VARIABLE/SWITCH MODE [get and set]: (via RDM and DIP) · DMX LOSS COUNT [get and set]: up to 256 losses counted then holds at 256. Re-power and reset clears. · Panic Switch Status [get]: if equipped with a panic switch status is shown · Factory Defaults [get and set]: Set level cap to 100%, Dip switches ignored, DMX start channel set to 1, DMX Loss Count cleared, DMX Loss Directive set to off, rename Device Label to ELM Video Technology, Inc.
