Strobe, Anytronics Deathstar 1500 W DMX

Description

A DMX decode card is available as an option on both
Megastar and Deathstar strobes. This will provide a pulse
to fire the strobe when the 50% (MSB) DMX level is
detected, and so a chase will need to be programmed
on the controller to set the flash rate of the strobe. If the
dual edge trigger switch is in position ‘D’ then the strobe
will flash at twice the rate set on the sequence.
DMX in/through is via one male and one female 5 pin
XLR socket fitted to the rear of the strobe (see
photograph). There is a 10 way DIL switch for address
setting and single (S) / dual (D) edge trigger selection
(see above).
The sum of selected switches equal start address. The
card actually decodes two channels so the second
channel has been routed to the middle contact of the
stereo jack sockets marked ‘Flip-Flash output’, and may
be used to trigger a non DMX strobe from a DMX
controller.
