The W-DMX
BlackBox system is a user-friendly single DMX universe
“One-Button-2-Go” technology.
Multiple BlackBox S-1 transmitters can be used in close proximity as
they can be set up so that they will not interfere with each other.
The standard configuration uses 512 DMX channels; however, systems
can be adapted to support up to 8,192 DMX channels (16 DMX512
universes).
W-DMX BlackBox S-1 can be used for both Multicasting and
Point-to-Point systems. In a Multicast system, there is more than
one receiver per transmitter or universe. In a Point-to-Point
situation, each transmitter has a single receiver.
There can
of course be a combination of these two modes, for example a
BlackBox S-1 connected to the console can transmit to 6 units of
W-DMX BlackBox R-512, and each of the R-512s has a fixture connected
that is daisy-chained to several other units by cable on either same
or different DMX addresses.
All W-DMX products uses the license free 2.45 GHz ISM band, and are
certified for use in the United States, Canada, Japan, and all
European Union countries.
The W-DMX BlackBox S-1 uses FHSS, Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum,
along with a number of other techniques to avoid interference and
create a very reliable wireless link.
The R-512 receiver is a
user-friendly receiver with “One-Button-2-Go” technology. The R-512
receives all 512 channels (one universe) DMX wireless through the
W-DMX technology that is proven to be safe, reliable and easy to
use.
The T-1 Pro transceiver can be easily set up
as either a transmitter or receiver by selecting the correct
mode via the mode switch.
As standard all the units are shipped with a 2dBi
Antennas but with the use of the 5dBi Antenna you can obtain
a higher transmission power or increase the sensitivity of the
receiver. This 5dBi Antenna does have its drawbacks the
standard 2dBi antenna transmits 360o Horizontally and 360o
Vertically, however the 5dBi Antenna transmits 360o
Horizontally and 30o Vertically. You must take this
into account when using this antenna.
The 5m extension cable for 5dBi Antenna
enables you to site the antenna 5 meters away from the transmitter
or receiver. Using this cable does have it's drawbacks as the
cable its self has a 2.5 dB loss so when used with the 5dBi antenna
the overall gain is 0.5dB.

different Antenna or Extension cables please give us a call. |
