Will this unit work with a DMX 3 channel controller?

It should. I use the Chauvet obey 10 and works fine. Works with any dmx controller to my understanding.

There is a fourth channel that sets the strobe rate. I think I remember that you need to have access to this fourth channel if you want to set it to "constant on."

It needs four channels to work. Red Channel, Green Channel, Blue Channel, and Brightness which also controls whether is steady light or strobe mode depending on the value if this channel. if this channel is not present the lights don't perform correctly. In my DMX controller, Channel 1 controls the intensity. I assume this would the same for all controllers.

Hi Allan, It does not work with just any DMX controller. It requires a controller that supports 4 or more channels per device. 3 Channels will not work because either you get to set the RGB colors ( 3 channels) but then you can't make them bright or dim (4th channel). Larry has a 3 channel DMX controller which leaves one of the 4 channels out making the lights not to operate correctly. Either you miss one color... or you can't set the brightness and strobe on or off.

No, we bought this for use with my Cauvet obey3 and are able to use two of the four channels, third channel turns off lights.

Sure. Just connect a wireless receiver to the first light fixture DMX IN (master) then use DMX cable DMX OUT to daisy chain the other light fixtures. Use a Terminator plug on the last fixture in the daisy chain.

Yes and no:Yes, if you plan to use this as microphone cable (what it's meant for) and it can also be used as 3-pin DMX. It's quality enough to do both.No, if you plan on using this for lighting instruments, lighting power, and/or speaker power. It's to thin of a gauge and you'll likely start a fire if you try to put anything of serious power needs through it.

Any DMX cable will work Even XLR is no problem. Not sure if that's the answer you were looking fot. It's 3 pin DMX. I have 9 of these particular Pars. No problem thus far.

No, it does not have any DMX capability and can only be controled by the ir remote.

For sure!But if your DX8 had not been upgraded (register your transmitter at spektrumrc.com for firmware update) to DSMX, it will bind in DSM2 mode.

This unit will not work with DMX. You can get a wireless remote for 20-30 bucks Chauvet Wireless Remote Controller FC-W

This is DMX 512, not XLR audio. I'm not sure what you are trying to "daisy chain" here. Although the plugs look the same, they do not pass the same signal.

Just power cable, you can use mic cables with no problems if you don't have DMX

Not with what's in the box. You can get another controller with the trade in program Traxxas has that will have more channels.

it has a test function that allows some modes, Red, Green, Blue,Yellow,Cyan,Magenta,white, Jump 3, jump 7,fade 3, fade 7 and the jumps and fades are speed adjustable. it does NOT output these modes via dmx(so you can't have the modes synced) and you can't trigger these modes via dmx. all in all its a great unit tho.

Try using different DMX channel modes on the lights. Some lights default to 7 channel mode, but the lighting controller wants them to be in 4 channel mode, for example.

I am not sure as I do not have a cheuvet obey 3. It has full DMX assignability as far as I know.

This controller will only work with lights that have "3" channels. It will not work with any type of laser. You need a more sophisticated controller and dmx program to make the laser work properly. This controller is not for a laser.

It's only for controlling leds in 3 channel mode . You need a full size dmx controller for the led moving heads
1175896
Yes. You can set different blinking/light changing modes without dmx, but don't expect it to sync up with the music perfectly.

Yes it will work but they are smaller and work better on the smaller DX sensors for a single pass wipe. You should get the Type 3 for the FX sensors as they are larger.
