Will a DMX controller work with these? Giving you more 'scenes' etc.

Yes it will. I've used them with an Obey 40. The 4bar can be used in 3 channel mode with a simpler unit like an Obey 4, where each pod does the same but with independent color control, or in 15 channel mode, with a larger controller like the obey 40, where you have independent control of each pod .

Just power cable, you can use mic cables with no problems if you don't have DMX

The Obey is a DMX controller, so any DMX enabled device can be controlled by it. Additionally it has manual a fog port which equates to a 1/4" TRS jack for binary devices. Although it is only made for one device presumably, you may be able to string multiple together on this channel. Because the Mega Par Profile unit has DMX, the UV LED channel will be included in the 8 that are allocated to that device. Basic cans only use 3 of the 8 channels. One for Red, one for Blue, and one for Green. Yours will likely use one more for UV, although I am not familiar with this unit. After looking it up though I may be buying a pair :) Bear in mind that the Obey 40 is expecting to hand out groups of 8 channels, one for each slider on the faceplate, with the option of supporting dual bank (16 channels) on a single device and a "Bank" button to flip back and forth between channel sets. From the product specifications of that par can: - DMX-512 protocol - 5 DMX Channel modes: 4/5/6/9/10 channels - 5 Operational modes: RGB+UV Dimmer Mode, Sound Active Mode, Auto Run Mode, Static Color Mode, & DMX Controlled If you run this unit in 9 or 10 channel mode you would need to break out 16 channels (2 sets of 8 sliders,) and have 6 or 7 left unused. The other modes will all fit into a single bank of 8 channels. In short, yes. DMX controllers don't really care what is hooked up to their channels in the fixture. They are merely providing a control signal for the fixture to interpret however it sees fit to. What level of control is available and what goes on which channel is up to the fixture manufacturer, and is pretty much always included in the documentation that came with the unit. If it has DMX, it should be compatible.

Unless setting up scenes, the 4-play works best in sound activated mode. It will not work as a stand alone color strobe unless it's on dmx.

It's only for controlling leds in 3 channel mode . You need a full size dmx controller for the led moving heads

it has already built in support for RGB why would you want to connect it to RGB DMX?

You should be able to install the interface itself on as many computers as you want. I think the only limitation you might run into would be from the lighting software you use. I use Freestyler DMX (which works great with this interface), and it's free.

For sure!But if your DX8 had not been upgraded (register your transmitter at spektrumrc.com for firmware update) to DSMX, it will bind in DSM2 mode.

i dont think you will need your controller. It comes with a sptectrum DX6i remote already for the program. Try using your remote and see if it works.

Searching on the web I couldnt find any reference for this compatibility, yet, you must try searching on users guide because this controller seems to be very flexible about compat. Luck

Yes. You can set different blinking/light changing modes without dmx, but don't expect it to sync up with the music perfectly.

Yes you can use it in combo with wired dmx. I have used it for quite a few months and has performed flawlessly!

I think is compatible with both, dsmx and the other one. They have the full manual online at www.spektrumrc.com.

Yes, you will need a 12v input into I to drive the light strip. DMX doesn't carry voltage to power anything.

yes it will work with any DMX Lighting, you can buy mine for $40 never use it or My ADJ control for $80, both or brand new sill in the boxs

It will control any DMX light that is DMX - 512 compatible. There are many lights, and your brief description does not allow for specifics.

I use 2 of these with an obey 40 and it works perfectly. Make sure your assigning proper channel assignment. Turn on dip switch 1 for dmx then use the DMX Dips switches (labeled on the unit itself) to assign the address, ie. for fixture 2 on your obey, set the 008 switch "On" for fixture 3 set 016 "On".
