DMX to Analog Interfaces
MTX-DE8-WM
8 Channel DMX to Analog Interface
The MTX-DE8-WM decodes signals from DMX control desks to analog dimmers, LED, and fluorescent lighting fixtures whose drivers / ballasts accept 0 to +10VDC dimming control. It is used to integrate controllers into theatrical or television lighting systems. The decoder is mounted on a wall, and each driver is connected to one of eight channels on the internal terminal strip. Up to 64 decoders may be chained together for systems of up to 512 fixtures. A thumbwheel switch on the front panel selects the starting channel, and an LED indicates presence of the DMX signal.
For drivers that don’t dim all the way to off, there are on/off options to enable switching power to the drivers. Outputs can be configured for all analog or 1, 2, or 4 on/off outputs. All controlling analog channels must be set to zero for the on/off output to be 0 instead of 10 Volts.
Also available as the MTX-DE8-WMH, the Highest Takes Precedence (HTP) Output version has source-only outputs allowing multiple 0-10V outputs (like our HLC line of House Light Controls) to be wired together controlling 0-10V devices. This enables system configurations that allow for basic light control without booting up the DMX control console.
The MTX-DE8-WM+ (HTP w/ HTL) integrates our MTX-HTL signal converter providing both Architectural 0-10V sink-only outputs and Theatrical 0-10V source-only outputs. This is ideal for popular LED High Bay lights.
