Please note that the PWM Dimmer is discontinued and it is recommended to use the RGBW 24v DMX dimmers instead. If you are not using a Loxone DMX device, then please refer to PWM Dimmer. Then save the program in the Miniserver.įor details on how to insert the Loxone RGBW 24V DIMMER DMX, please refer to RGBW 24v Dimmer DMX. To reassign the DMX channel go to the appropriate (DMX actuator / DMX RGB actuator) ‘Properties’ window, and enter your selection. an RGBW driver has 4 – R, G, B and W, so, therefore, it needs to reserve 4 channels for this 1 driver. This is because the DMX extension has 128 lines of communication, each line will control 1 channel on a driver. When adding them manually, it is key that you take into consideration – the available channels and what is being controlled off of them as mismatching driver and actuator type would result in odd behaviour.įor reference, the Loxone RGBW 24v DMX driver is referred to as an RGB and W actuator DMX CHANNEL ADJUSTMENTĪdding DMX actuators will automatically assign channels, so for example if you add two DMX RGBW actuators the first one will be channel 1 and the second will be channel 4. How you want to control the channels – Say if you have an RGBW driver, but only controlling white lights off of it, that’s effectively 4 channels, so you would use a DMX 4 actuator instead.Your Driver’s channels – what if I have a driver with just 4 channels? Then you can use the DMX 4 actuators.Your type of driver – an RGBW one would warrant the use of an RGB and W actuator if you want the coloured lighting.You would pick which one you require depending on:
Here you can see the numerous actuator types that are on offer. It is designed to be placed in the central location with all the other Loxone equipment as. If you are not using a Loxone RGBW 24v DMX driver, but a different, 3rd party driver that isn’t an RGBW driver, you can add devices manually and also specify their channels. The RGBW Dimmer DMX is a direct replacement for the PWM Dimmer. Once you have found your DMX device in the search, simply name it and create the device and it will appear in your periphery tree for use within Loxone Config. To do so, please select your DMX extension in the periphery tree and then hit the DMX device search button at the top. If you are using a Loxone RGBW 24v DMX driver (highly recommended as they have been developed side by side), then you can use the DMX Device search feature in Loxone Config to find any devices that are on the DMX BUS. You can manually add DMX actuators, based off of their channels/channel use or simply learn in a Loxone RGBW 24v Dimmer DMX via the DMX device search.
Once you have setup your DMX Extension, ensured that it is learned in and powered up, you can begin learning in or adding your DMX devices to Loxone Config.
