DMX512 compatible: Supports standard DMX512 / DMX512(1990) protocol; compatible with all major DMX consoles and controllers. Many models also support RDM (Remote Device Management) for remote configuration and monitoring.
ON/OFF switching via DMX: Each channel operates as a relay output — receives DMX signal and switches connected loads ON or OFF. No dimming/PWM; pure relay contact control.
High-power load capacity: Each channel typically supports 10A–30A @ 110V/230V AC or high-current DC loads (12V/24V/48V). Total load capacity varies by model (e.g., 16A total to 200A+ total).
Multi-channel options: Available in 1CH, 2CH, 4CH, 8CH, 12CH, 16CH, and 24CH versions; fits everything from single-fixture control to large multi-circuit systems.
Flexible DMX addressing: Start address set via DIP switch, digital display, or remote RDM. Some models support individual channel assignment or group addressing for multi-relay units.
Multiple signal interfaces: XLR 3-pin / 5-pin, RJ45, and screw terminal; DMX IN / DMX OUT daisy-chain with signal isolation and optional built-in repeater/amplifier.
Standalone / auto-run mode: Built-in test programs (chase, random, all-on, all-off) for testing or standalone operation without a DMX console.
Power-loss memory: Remembers last DMX address and relay states after power failure; configurable to restore previous state or default to OFF for safety.
Protection functions: Over-load, over-temperature, short-circuit, and surge protection. Some models include arc suppression for inductive loads (motors, transformers, fluorescent ballasts).
Universal load compatibility: Controls any electrical load — non-dimmable LED fixtures, incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, motors, pumps, solenoids, fans, power supplies, and more.
Signal isolation: Optical isolation between DMX input and relay outputs protects control equipment from electrical noise and voltage spikes.
DIN-rail, wall-mount, or portable enclosure: Available in DIN-rail modules for control panels, wall-mount boxes for fixed installation, or rugged portable "relay pack" cases for stage and event use.
Status indication: LED indicators for DMX signal presence, each channel ON/OFF state, and power status for quick visual diagnostics.
Cascadable: Multiple units can be linked to expand channel count in large installations (theatres, architectural lighting, industrial automation).
A DMX512 relay switch converts DMX console signals into dry-contact relay switching to remotely turn ON/OFF any AC or DC electrical load — lights, motors, pumps, or equipment — without dimming.
