Default Re: DMX help

Not a stupid question, I have had to explain this to a few people in the past, DMX is a protocol. Its the language that makes your console talk to your dimmers, LEDs & MLs. It's that simple, I can see why the Wiki wouldn't help.

DMX may also reffer to DMX cable, the cable that carries the DMX data, like a ethernet cable (Cat5) does for your computer.
Hope I cleared it up,
Nick
