INTRODUCTION
W ELCOME TO THE W ORLD OF DMXP ATHFINDER !
This Installation Guide is intended to walk you through a typical installation. In
preparing the User Guide, it has been assumed that you are reasonably
familiar with the DMX512 and the various wiring methods associated with
RS422/485 based protocols.
DMXPathfinder MR is a DMX512 distribution tool, providing a method for
distributing up to eight DMX sources (such as dimming or moving light
controls) to a number of DMX devices or outlets. All inputs and outputs are
opto-isolated and repeated, in conformance with the USITT/ESTA
specifications for DMX512 signal distribution.
The Installer’s Guide is divided into 2 chapters:
• DMXPathfinder Installation leads you through all the steps necessary
for a “clean” installation of your hardware.
• Maintenance and Testing offers troubleshooting tips and procedures
to keep everything running smoothly.
