Software Release Arp 2018 : V2.01:

  1. Bug fix: while fading up/down DMX channels 511 and 512 were intermittently fading
  2. Modified fade action:  added fade up/down responses during fades. Previously if a switch was position was changed while fading the fade would complete before the new switch position was detected.

Software Release Mar 2018 : V2.00 - PCB redesign, power LED color change (GREEN), with added voltage fault indicator (RED) - indicating input voltage at PCB input is too high or too low.

The DSC5V is a DMX scene controller that uses a standard wall switch available with 1, 2, 3, or 4 switch(es). Store up to 4 static scenes and then recall just by turning on the respective switch. PLEASE NOTE: The DSC5V is intended for a single entry system, for 3-way or 4-way multi entry switches control see our DMSC Wall Station Controller. 

Great for churches, theatres (theaters), and similar venues to easily turn on DMX controlled lights without having to turn on and use a DMX lighting board or controller. For example switch 1 could be "Band Practice", switch 2 "Stage Lights", switch 3 "Audience Lights", switch 4 "Balcony". Simply flip any of the switches and the pre recorded scene will turn on with optional 5 second fade. If the "Merge" function is turned off then any DMX input will OVERRIDE the switches and take control allowing a DMX controller to control the lights. Turn off the DMX controller and the switches again are operable. The switch/scenes are HTP (highest takes precedence) merged with each other allowing any or all switches to turn on it's respective scene. DMX scenes are easily recorded to any of the switches from the front of the unit. Installation required, ships with 9V power supply. Unit ships with PCB, power supply, switch(es) and switch plate pre assembled. Wall gang box and wire/cable not included.


  • Recall a DMX Scene by simply turning on a switch
  • Optional 5 second fade up/down
  • Optional Merge/Override DMX input function
