Introduction
Watson provides two important functions to support new technology (non-incandescent)
lighting fixtures.
1) Power Switching – using a set DMX address, or simply detecting DMX signal,
Watson will turn off the power to fixtures when they are not in use.
2) Isolated DMX data – Watson provides optically isolated and buffered signal for a
series of DMX fixtures.
Please take a few minutes to review the specifications features of the new Watson
product.
