The CONNECT RX200N is powered from the 2.1x5.5mm
DCJack connector. When powered, the red «POWER»
indicator turns on.
Input Voltage: From +4.5Vdc to +26Vdc
Typical working voltage:
•
5Vdc
for USB battery powering
(using USB-DCjack cord provided with the device)
•
14.8Vdc
for V-mount battery powering
(using DTAP-DCjack cord provided with the device)
9 - DMX/RDM OUTPUT
The CONNECT RX200N is designed for DMX/RDM equipments. The signal
received from the radio emitter is forwarded to the XLR5, with the standard
pinout (1:Ground / 2:Data- / 3:Data+).
The blue indicator «DMX» turns on when a DMX signal is received and
outputed on the XLR5.

10 - LINKING WITH TRANSMITTER
It is necessary to link the RX200N to a emitter following this procedure:
- Make sure all devices to be paired are powered.
- Start the linking procedure by pressing the dedicated button on the
emitter.
- During the linking period (10s), the DMX signal is not transmitted. Any
unlinked CONNECT RX200N in range will automatically link to the emitter. If
a CONNECT RX200N is linked to an emitter, the blue «LINK» indicator turns
on (even if the transmitter is off).
Several receivers CONNECT RX200N can be linked to the same emitter
during a single procedure.
11 - UNLINKING RECEIVERS
At any time, it is possible to reset the configuration of the receiver by
unlinking from the emitter. To do so, press the «UNLINK» button during 3
seconds, until the «LINK» indicator turns off.
12 - RADIO
The antenna is manually adjustable (±90°). Take care not to exceed over
this angle. The antenna is not removable.
A three-level gauge provides feedback on the radio signal strength. In
order to optimize the radio communication, it is also recommended to
install the transmitters and receivers in open spaces, without large metalic
objects. It is also recommanded to place the antennas as described in
the following image.
