I've spent quite a bit of time searching here and other places to answer some questions. I'll list some of the instruments I have:
1 NSI MC6300 light controller
2 NSI ND4600 dimmers
1 Eliminator ED-15 dimmer.
What I'd like to do is migrate into LED lighting but all of the lights I look at have a DMX protocol. My light board has a place for the optional DMX512 out connection but isn't installed. Is it possible to get this connection and install it into the board?
I do know this board will run both MPX and DMX. I know the conventional PAR cans I have don't care what is controlling them as they just plug into the dimmer while the LED units have their own DMX connections so they can be Daisy Chained(?)
I'm guessing in order to run any LED lighting I'll have to have DMX control from the board which means this socket/replacing board and another DMX dimmer pack such as the ED-15.
Or do I need to consider a converter?
I'd appreciate any hints or suggestions. I'm compiling a list of things for an order that I need to have turned in soon.
I've actually learned quite a bit from poking around. I'm more hands-on learner, I guess the automotive industry will do that
