DMX Linking
The Color STRIKE M will work with a DMX controller using a 5-pin DMX serial connection. A DMX Primer is available from www.chauvetprofessional.com.
DMX Connection
The Color STRIKE M uses a 5-pin DMX data connection for its 6 control personalities: 8CH, 11CH, 13CH, 24CH, 30CH, 74CH, and 97CH. See the User Manual for information about connecting and configuring the product for DMX operation.
Master/Slave Connection
The Color STRIKE M uses the DMX data connection for its master/slave mode. See the User Manual for information about how to connect and configure the product for master/slave operation.
Signal Connection
The Color STRIKE M can link to controller software using an Ethernet connection. If using other Art-Net™- or sACN- compatible products with the Color STRIKE M, each product can be controlled individually on a single network. See the User Manual for information about how to connect and configure the product for these signals.
Art-Net™ Connection
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP, which transfers a large amount of DMX512 data using an Amphenol XLR Net RJ45 connection over a large network. An Art-Net™ protocol document is available from www.chauvetprofessional.com. Chauvet Professional recommends using unicast Art-Net™ for best results.
Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.
sACN Connection
Also known as ANSI E1.31, Streaming-ACN is an Ethernet protocol that uses the layering and formatting of Architecture for Control Networks to transport DMX512 data over IP or any other ACN-compatible network.
RDM (Remote Device Management)
Remote Device Management, or RDM, is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate bi-directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller’s User Manual or with the manufacturer as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The Color STRIKE M supports RDM protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options. Download the User Manual from www.chauvetprofessional.com for more details.

Mounting
Before mounting this product, read the Safety Notes. Use at least two mounting point per product. Make sure the mounting clamps are capable of supporting the weight of the product. For our Chauvet line of mounting clamps, go to https://trusst.com/productcategory/truss-clamps/.
