Thank you

Exactly as described. Excellent!!

Ok

At first read this seems like a good deal. What we found is that is was DOA out of the box. Unfortunately, we did not get it out at our church until the return period expired. Looks like we could be stuck with it. Fortunately we didn't pay much. I did notice a new warning on the description that it is a frequently returned item. I am now working with Sweetwater to decide on a controller.

tres bien

A week ago I knew nothing about stage lighting and DMX. However I have an electronics background and have used Multiplexing technology in the past. If you see an error in my post please let me know, as I said I am new to this but I’m sure what I have to say will help a lot of people get started. The instructions with this equipment is very vague….Some Terminology to know :DMX is a protocol for controlling stage lighting with 512 channels of data through one cableFIXTURES are lights or fog machines or anything that has an binary address to control it, such as 001, 017, 033 and so onCHANNELS are the faders on the bottom middle of the Controller, these control the lights or other equipment. Down is OFF, push up and it works like a light dimmer, goes higher.SCENES are memory locations where you store a Fixtures functions you have set. Such as you set 4 lights to all Red at a Certain Brightness and 2 more to Green, etc. then save to Scene 1. When you later push the Scene 1 button the 6 lights will go to the exact setting that you saved. Same with Scene 2, 3 and so on to Scene 8. This could be a fog machine or moving lights, etcCHASES are a series of saved SCENES in a row. Such as you program Chase 1 to operate Scene 1, 4, 2, 6 in that order. Chase 2 could be Scenes 7, 3, 5, 1, 2, 6 and so on. They can be in any order you choose.192 Channel DMX512 Controller :SCANNER Buttons - On the left side there are 12 Scanner buttons, what this really does is connect the Controller to the “Fixture” (lights, fog machine, etc) via a data address. For example press Scanner 1 and the green led will light. You have now connected the entire DMX Controller to data Address 001 to 016, this is the first Fixture which is addressed “d001” on the Fixture. The other 15 address’s are for colors and misc functions of that Fixture ending at data address 016. The next Scanner Button #2 will be Fixture #2 or address 017. Now it will do the same things as above.I better explain the address’s for all the Fixtures (or lights, fog machine, etc) and how they work. Each Fixture has to have its own Identification Address which is the first address for the Fixture. I’ll list 8 Fixtures below.Fixture #1 - Address 001 - The Fixtures LED box “d001”Fixture #2 - Address 017 - The Fixtures LED box “d017”Fixture #3 - Address 033 - The Fixtures LED box “d033”Fixture #4 - Address 049 - The Fixtures LED box “d049”Fixture #5 - Address 065 - The Fixtures LED box “d065”Fixture #6 - Address 081 - The Fixtures LED box “d081”Fixture #7 - Address 097 - The Fixtures LED box “d097”Fixture #8 - Address 113 - The Fixtures LED box “d113”As you can see there are 16 address between each identification address ((first address) That is reserved for other functions that a Controller can send to the Fixture. An example for Fixture 1 would be”001 - Fixture #1 Identifying Address002 - Controls the Red LEDs in the Fixture003 - Controls the Green LEDs in the Fixture004 - Controls the Blue LEDs in the Fixture005 - Strobes the LEDS that are turned onRest of address’s reserved for other functions up to 016017 - Would be Fixture #2 Identifying Address018 - Controls the Red LEDs in the Fixture019 - Controls the Green LEDs in the Fixture020 - Controls the Blue LEDs in the Fixture021 - Strobes the LEDS that are turned onRest of address’s reserved for other functions up to 032033 - Would be Fixture #3 Identifying AddressConnect the data cables from the back of the DMX Controller to Fixture 1 then out of the back to the next Fixture 2, then to 3 until all your lights have the data connectors installed (daisy chained). The last light should have a “3 pin DMX Termination Resistor”. You can buy them separately and for some reason no one mentions them in the directions anywhere I have found. You should use one even tho your Fixtures may operate fine without one.Now go to “uTube” and so a search on “U King DMX Setup” and start watching Videos about DMX programming and set up. Watch more then one and learn.Important Note: No where does anybody tell you the first fader on the Controller (on the CHANNELS section) is the MASTER FADER ! This MUST be UP or ON for any of the other Faders to work. Example, if you want the Red LEDs to come ON your Fixture that is CHANNEL 2s fader. But it won’t work unless the MASTER FADER IS ON ALSO. So push up Fader #1 then push up #2 and the Red will come on. Here is the breakdown below :Fader #1 - MASTER FADER (must be ON for other faders to work)Fader #2 - RedFader $3 - GreenFader #4 - BlueFader #5 - Pulse or Flashing whatever other Color is ON for Faders 2,3,4Fader #6 thru 8 - Reserved for other functions on Fixtures like moving lights or fog machines, etcIf lights won’t come on, MOVE Fader #1 up and down, its a quirk…Good Luck, Have Fun !Geno B-

We had a set of lights at our church. I bought dmx cables to chain them for easy configuration. Initially used a laptop and qlc+ but got difficult to manage. We didn't need wireless control so bought this, and took Our use case is simple, and for that it's been great and others find it easy to use as well, once configured. So far it's been reliable (no interruptions like those mentioned in other comments). Nice that it comes rack mountable, but haven't gotten a chance to do that yet.

Realmente una buena atención y servicio y un buen equipo

Je l'ai reçu avec quelques égratignure.

It worked like a champ for 1.5 years but now there's lots of tittling and shakiness in the light when you use it, sliders don't work unless pressed down, and the screen that shows what scene is on is going like a hacker's computer, just super fast numbers

Update: Spoke with their customer service department. Will update the review afterward.Update Review: The customer service team was top-notch. They sent me another one that works perfectly. I love the design and simplicity of the product. All channels work the right attributes, the correct LEDs are lighting up, and the controller works as intended. It is so simple and the design is clean, yet the product itself came defective. I checked my cables and lights to make sure the set-up is correct. Everything is good. The problem is... That the scanners will control the wrong lights and the channels will control the wrong attributes of the light. Like channel 1 is suppose to be intensity or brightness of the light, but for some reason it makes it strobe. I switched lights and cables plenty of time to be sure. Sometimes the right channels work and sometimes they don't. Sometimes the scanners uses the right lights, but most of the time they don't. The design is simple and the look is neat. I have a show coming up soon, so I don't want to toss it.
