just bought these and the instruction/little pamphlet that come with them is useless. This video is the best explanation of what to do to get them up and running etc. Thank You so very Much. Can I reach out to you and get some help with DMX programming on my OR Control DMX Master Controller. Just getting into this and there really needs to be a start from scratch series of videos that get you up too speed. I'm an old AV guy who has programmed multi image slide shows etc. for huge corporate events all over North America. I'm a quick learner, but there doesn't seem to be anything out there to get you going. This was a great video on this product and has filled in all the missing info that the instructions did not have. You should do a tutorial on DMX. I'd certainly pay for that! Thanx Brian
Thanks for the info great video! Just got the same kit as in this video. The directions say to not frequently use the on/off button. I’m guessing because it can be easily worn out. Have you had any issues with that? Cheers!
Very helpful video - Thanks. Do the receivers remember the frequency settings previously set after powering down? i.e.; light blue on transmitter and receiver. You had said before a setting up a gig, "I just power them on and they are ready to go"
Hi Matt, Am I right in saying that these could carry a whole DMX show for lots of different fixtures? Say for example you connected 10 different lights with traditional cables up on a ceiling (all with different channels and features, doing different things etc.) I could then use one transmitter and receiver pair to send the signal from the desk up to the first fixture in the chain and they would all work fine? Sorry if i'm being stupid!!
Yep! That’s what we do often. The first fixture in the chain has the receiver, then the rest are just chained normally off of that first fixture. Works like a charm!
Sorry if this question has been asked but I'm wondering if this would work: Transmitter plugged in to DMX controller. Receiver in light on right side of stage and then wired daisy chained cables to two other lights. Then receiver in light on left side of the stage and then wired cables to two lights?
Do I need a controller or dmx software, say on an iPad to run these or can I just plug the transmitter into one light, then plug receivers into other lights as long as they are all on the same channel?
Did you get an answer for this, I wanted to do this same. Ipad running vibro, connected to transmitted on 1 light, then daisy chain to other lights with a cable.
@@regbateup1184 in theory that should work, as long as you’re able to control the light from iPad already. I use my laptop and these receivers/transmitters from light to light.
I can't tell you how helpful this video is. Could you just clarify whether or not there is a limit to the number of receivers you can pair up to a single transmitter?
Yeah, temperature effects mine. As mine are getting older, i notice that they are not lasting as long as they used to. They are still typically more than enough for a regular gig.
9:45 so I can't have different lights operating on different channels? I am considering getting these, but before I order them, I want to know if these work in one of these three scenarios. Scenario 1: Let's say I have 3 lights (16 channels each), and I am lighting a small stage for a play or show. Light one is channel 1, light two channel 17, light three channel 34. I want all three lights to do different things. Light 1 is red, light 2 is blue, light 3 is green. My DMX controller is set up to transmit those values to channel 1, channel 17, and channel 34. Will if work if I plug a receiver to each of the light's female plug? Scenario 2: Let's say I have 6 lights (16 channels each) and I want to do the same lighting set up, but two per color (two lights are red, two are blue, and 3 are green). I set up a receiver in one light set to channel 1 and daisy chain it to another light set to channel 1 as well using a short dmx cable. I do the same for channel 17 and channel 34. It'll look like this: (receiver)(Channel 1 Light #1)---DMX---(Channel 1 Light #2) (receiver)(Channel 17 Light #1)---DMX---(Channel 17 Light #2) (receiver)(Channel 34 Light #1)---DMX---(Channel 34 Light #2) Scenario 3: I have three lights again and want to light up the three of them (red, blue, and green). I want to set up a rack of the lights, but only have 1 receiver. So, I connect light 1 to a receiver and daisy chain the others to it. Here is the set up: (receiver)(Channel 1 Light #1)---DMX---(Channel 17 Light)---DMX---(Channel 34 Light) Will this work? I hope this explanation is clear.
All these do is replace the dmx wire from your lighting console to your lights. So whatever set up you have now (wired), will still work when you replace the wires with these. As long as you assign your lights to the respective channels you shouldn'thave any issues. I hope that helps.
hello sir..if i use this product?can i control led matrix or led panel to show graphics,videos,text,pictures, etc.... using software like glediator, jinx, vixen.... thank you sir....
@@Code_mov can I run dmx cable from the main source and the wireless receivers on the lights ex" 4 truss towers with 4 lights each, I run it from a main 4 ports DMX console wired to the first light in each tower and split the others with the receivers so I don`t have to run cables on top?
I’ve actually never encountered solid green! Usually green flashing is good, but when it loses signal, it goes back to whatever color the channel is. So like mine go back to red, which is the channel I selected when they lose signal.
Yeah, so often I will place the transmitter on a light itself, that has been hard wired to the dmx, then use the wireless to jump a doorway or something.
Hello, did you say at one point in the video that you can plug in the receivers while on the fixtures (hence never be afraid of running out of charge) ?

Well made video with a great camera angle and a good explanation.
Great video! Answered all my question about wireless DMX.
Thanks for the info great video! Just got the same kit as in this video. The directions say to not frequently use the on/off button. I’m guessing because it can be easily worn out. Have you had any issues with that? Cheers!
In the link you provided the units are black, they don't appear to have the LED lit ends, do they?
Very helpful video - Thanks. Do the receivers remember the frequency settings previously set after powering down? i.e.; light blue on transmitter and receiver. You had said before a setting up a gig, "I just power them on and they are ready to go"
Yeah, I set the channel once, and they keep that every time I turn them on
I am watching your video for educational purpose sir. would you be able to give us some detail about the circuitry of these receiver and trasmitter??
Hello! good job :) i have a question. Please, What is the waist of the transmitter?
excellent video!
How many receiver can you ad to the transmitter. thanks.

Yea i believe so from videos I've seen but I have not used this product.
About receiver can i use smart phone by wifi transmitter
Thanks for the video , can you post a video on changing the Battery
I haven’t had to replace any batteries yet. But if I do I will be sure to post a video!
Good video ....helped alot...thanks.
Found this really useful 😎🎧👍🏻
Will they work with ADJ Go

Are you having lagging issues??
I can't tell you how helpful this video is. Could you just clarify whether or not there is a limit to the number of receivers you can pair up to a single transmitter?
As far as I know, there isn’t a limit on receivers. I have used one transmitter with 12 receivers before with no problems
@@Code_mov every 12 to 15 receivers (aprox) you can put a single Transmitter in the OUT of a fixture to "BOOST" the signal
I only got 5 hours on full charge,, outside event was about 50 degrees out,, was that a factor ?

hello sir..if i use this product?can i control led matrix or led panel to show graphics,videos,text,pictures, etc.... using software like glediator, jinx, vixen.... thank you sir....
In theory yes, but it only transmits one universe (512 ch)
So all i need is one receiver for back trust with 4 led lights and 2 flashers ??/ either end ?
daisy chained ....
I run 6 moving heads and 12 Par cans, would one transmitter be enough? great video BTW
Yep, I’ve ran a whole truss off one receiver.
@@Code_mov can I run dmx cable from the main source and the wireless receivers on the lights ex" 4 truss towers with 4 lights each, I run it from a main 4 ports DMX console wired to the first light in each tower and split the others with the receivers so I don`t have to run cables on top?
Yeah; that should work
@@Code_mov have you used multiple transmitters?
Can the receivers be plugged in rather than using batteries?
These are rechargeable only.
So if I buy one pack then a month later I want more and buy another pack will it all work together?
Yeah, that’s what we did.
Thanks brother
will these do the whole 512 channels or 1 universe
Yes, these are exactly like a good ole dmx cable, good for one universe.
what does solid green mean
I’ve actually never encountered solid green! Usually green flashing is good, but when it loses signal, it goes back to whatever color the channel is. So like mine go back to red, which is the channel I selected when they lose signal.
Let me see everything work
Can I continue my universe from one of these lights?
Yeah, so often I will place the transmitter on a light itself, that has been hard wired to the dmx, then use the wireless to jump a doorway or something.
Hello!
Can the receiver battery be replaced?
So it’s not like “user replaceable”, but it can be opened and replaced if you have soldering skills.
@@Code_mov Yes, i have.
The important thing is that it can be opened.
Did you ever do that work?
limit is 255 receivers
I bought some thinking it was battery Powered. Lol
So these ones are, I know they make some that aren’t.
Hello, did you say at one point in the video that you can plug in the receivers while on the fixtures (hence never be afraid of running out of charge) ?
Yeah, I actually do that often when I forget to charge them!
Thru google app
😘Great! Thanks a lot!
