DMX Linking
The Maverick MK1 Spot will work with a DMX controller using a 3- or 5-pin DMX serial connection. A DMX Primer is
available from
www.chauvetprofessional.com.
DMX Connection
The Maverick MK1 Spot uses a 3- or 5-pin DMX data connection for its DMX personalities: 22Ch and 29Ch. See the User
Manual for information about connecting and configuring the product for DMX operation.
Signal Connection
The Maverick MK1 Spot can link to controller software using an Ethernet connection. If using other Art-Net™ or sACN -
compatible products with the Maverick MK2 Spot, you can control each individually on a single network. See the User
Manual for information about how to connect and configure the product for these signals.
Art-Net
Connection
™
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP which transfers a large amount of DMX512 data using an Neutrik®
etherCON® RJ45 connection over a large network. An Art-Net™ protocol document is available from
www.chauvetprofessional.com. Chauvet Professional recommends using unicast Art-Net™ for best results.
Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.
sACN Connection
Also known as ANSI E1.31, Streaming-ACN is an Ethernet protocol that uses the layering and formatting of Architecture
for Control Networks to transport DMX512 data over IP or any other ACN compatible network. ACN is maintained by the
Professional Lighting and Sound Association (PLASA).
RDM (Remote Device Management)
Remote Device Management, or RDM, is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate bi-directionally
along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller's User Manual or with the manufacturer as not all DMX controllers
have this capability. The Maverick MK1 Spot supports RDM protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map
options. Download the User Manual from
www.chauvetprofessional.com
for more details.
