DLA-PCB - Dual Input DMX
512 LCD Analyzer / Tester PCB Design your own enclosure with an analyzer / tester display
or add to your existing equipment or system. The DLA-PCB is
a 16 x 2 DMX512 / DMX LCD back lit data
analyzer display unit. The DLA-PCB displays any of the 512 channels and shows the numeric levels currently on those
channels in either; decimal (0-255),
hexadecimal (00-FF), percentages (0-100%), or
bar graph (displays 24
channels at a time) allowing the user to scroll to any channel
and
monitor the levels. The 4 buttons [ +, - , 10, 100
] will scroll thru the DMX channels for viewing, by holding
down the ' - ' button and pressing 10 or 100 will
subtract by 10 or 100. The Stats display shows the
packet size,
start code, and rate
or (frequency).
Also features a dual input selection in programming, if your
installation needs a front and rear connection, the user can
easily change from the 'A' to 'B' input simply by making a
front selection change. The LCD's backlight is
easily adjusted with front access software setting for easy
changes in those dark control room environments. The
auto
dim feature allows the user to set the time and dimming
value. This is useful if your using battery power.
