Signals leave a DMX controller and reach the wireless transmitter's antenna which, from a distance of over 500m , sends it to the Palco 5 fixtures' antennas. The (GSM-based) wireless DMX link does not interfere with other types of signals, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or GPRS-UMT and is not disturbed by them. The system has been tested with excellent results. The signal is transmitted via 512 DMX channels, so can be fed to several Palco 5 fixtures simultaneously, providing they are the within operating radius, says the company.
W-DMX is protected to IP 65, so it can be used outdoors even in bad weather conditions. Separate from the body of the Palco 5, but connected to it via an extension cable, it facilitates finding the ideal position for signal reception. Equipped with a wall or pole mounting system, it meets all positioning requirements.
