I have hooked these units to my DMX controller, but no action. I need the #1 light to address at 161 and the second at 165. What dip swtch settings?

Mine don't work at all with DMX. That's the flaw with these Chinese made lights. Also why they're so cheap! What I do is set one to do whatever (strobe, fade, react to audio) with no controller and the rest I set to slave and that works. I just wish the DMX controller would work. Bah.

I'm not 100% sure but try these: 161= 1, 6, 8, 165=1, 3, 6, 8. Use the chart at this link http://www.look4ideas.com/techstuff/dmxchart.pdf

The Mega Par Profile has 8 more LEDs each. The Mega Par Profile is a little smaller in size. These two lights will work fine together if connected via DMX and a DMX controller. Light output should be pretty close to the same.

There are dip switched in the remote make sure the set the same as the ones in the light I have never opened the light so I am not sure where they are located.

All the Lights will need to be powered Individually. Cannot be powered by the DMX alone. Although that would be nice Feature lol. This particular Item is simple enough to be used but, for me for some odd reason it didn't work that well for me. So I ended up doing a return and got the Obey40 by Chauvet. Works Wonders and I love it lol. Good luck mate hope all works for yah.

They come with 1 power cable to supply it power. If you plan on using a controller or run them in slave / master mode, then yes you will need a dmx cable.

This unit will not work with DMX. You can get a wireless remote for 20-30 bucks Chauvet Wireless Remote Controller FC-W

There is only one way to hook these lights up. It doesn't matter what colors your wires are. It appears that the maker doesn't care either. Since these are diodes the power will only flow one way. In short try one wire on the positive and the other on the negative. If that doesn't work switch them around. I got one white wire and one black... the black was positive...go figure right.

This product is only useable with led lights that use dmx addressing, I hope this helps.

Zee question is whether your DMX is on RS-485. DMX is a protocol that can sit on top of all manner of cabling. If it's DMX E1.11, it might work. I've been using it for Modbus/RTU devices and it works well.

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".

From my experience, the DMX protocol isn't 'plug and play'. I had to spend some serious time finding out what channels do what to the fixture. It could well be you have a defective unit, but before returning it I'd do a search and see if there is anyone who's posted about your setup and see if that gives you more info. Hope this helps.

If the LED's are not broken, the most likely problem is the appropriate plug is not properly seated in the controller. Re-seat all of the plugs and try again. If that doesn't work, then the LED's or connections are bad.

I'm not familiar with either Freestyler or DMX lighting so I can't be sure. However, if either of those require a RS485 adapter then I think it's worth a shot. I have been successfull with this adapter on Windows 7 and several Debian/Ubuntu Linux distrobutions.

Knowing Dmx lighting fixtures if this box operates the same way I would say there may be a Dmx channel addressthat may trigger that strobe function that may be where you need to start. The blinking light is to let you know it receiving dataAlso check for a Dmx terminator if you not Shure run it thru your search engine

I see lots of opinions here and mine will be no different. I have an '05 FXDX Dyna. I pulled the tail light and spliced into the wiring to allow them to always be on (I tested to ensure I had the right wires for the desired effect). I recall black, brown and purple wires.

should have a red and green light on if it is receiving signal correctly. make sure you have installed the software correctly that came with it and are using a compatible dmx software. also make sure you have selected the device as an output option within the dmx software

hmmm. I guess I would start with making sure the channels are matching the sliders. Are those the only lights you have connected to your controller or do you have others?
