Q&A
-
Can this controller support large lighting projects?
Yes. CR061R-BD offers 8 DMX/RDM ports with up to 4096 DMX channels (8 Universes). One unit can handle the workload of multiple standard DMX nodes, perfect for large-scale stage, theater, or architectural lighting.
-
Do I have to set up complex IP addresses?
No. The controller supports DHCP automatic IP assignment. Just plug in the cable and it works. You can also configure static IP through the LCD menu, PC software, or Web browser if needed.
-
What is Merge Mode and how does it help?
CR061R-BD supports HTP (Highest Takes Precedence) and LTP (Latest Takes Precedence) merge modes. This means signals from multiple controllers can be combined safely, ensuring flexible operation during complex shows or backup situations.
-
Is the device stable for professional use?
Absolutely. Each DMX port is optically isolated with built-in 1.5KV protection, plus an ARM processor for reliable performance. Even in complex stage environments with strong electrical interference, it runs safely and stably.
-
What is DMX Hold and why is it useful?
DMX Hold lets the controller keep the last valid DMX signal when the input signal is lost. This prevents lights from suddenly turning off or behaving unexpectedly during a show, ensuring a smooth and professional performance.
