Artistic Licence has launched Commissioner rdmx, which is now in stock for immediate shipping. Commissioner rdmx is a hand-held tool for testing, programming and configuring lighting installations or fixtures. It supports DMX512 and RDM. Handy features include a dual colour backlit display, DIP switch calculator and cable test mode.
Commissioner rdmx is a multi-featured DMX512/RDM tool that has been designed to ‘address the lighting technician’s every need’.
Housed in a robust plastic case with a backlit LCD display and tactile button keypad, Commissioner rdmx is a practical and self-contained piece of equipment that is suitable for site use.
The product includes two AA (NiMH) rechargeable batteries that can be topped up via the micro-USB port (this is also capable of powering the unit directly). A hardshell zip-case is included, with plenty of room for essential cables and adapters.
Commissioner rdmx offers a comprehensive range of functions. The various modes are accessed by navigating through the intuitive hierarchy of menus. Favourite functions (for example, setting DMX start addresses) can be added to a shortcut menu for quick access. The backlight uses green or red colour coding in certain modes to enhance the feedback for the user.
The testing tool includes all the usual sorts of functions required in a DMX/RDM tester but also has some extra tricks up its sleeve. For example, both DMX input and DMX output can function at the same time, allowing data fixing and network testing.
The product’s receive operation enables it to mimic data levels on the display and perform detailed timing analysis. Importantly, Commissioner rdmx can be used as a cable tester, thus potentially saving hours of debugging in the field.
