Please contact us to set up a custom order if your needs require a 3-Pin DMX plug. Otherwise you can use any standard 5-Pin (male) to 3-Pin (female) adapter.

You can run the receivers on any 5VDC USB source. This includes USB battery backups and chargers. You can not run the receiver off 9v or 12v batteries unless you have a step-down converter that can provide 5VDC over USB Type A plug.

Theoretically you could use an infinite amount of receivers in any CRMX wireless system. These wireless receivers are fully passive.

Any wireless DMX system that uses “CRMX” or is “Powered by Lumen Radio” will be compatible. Also, wireless transmitters from “W-DMX” or “Wireless Solution” will be backwards compatible with the CRMX protocol. You cannot, however, use a CRMX transmitter to link with “W-DMX” receivers.

City Theatrical SHoWBaby and SHoW Wireless Systems are proprietary and not compatible with CRMX.

No, the dmxLINK only functions as a receiver for Lumen Radio CRMX or W-DMX wireless communication. DmxLINK does not currently sell a transmitter. You can find transmitters by many other manufacturers such as Lumen Radio, Swisson, Innovative Dimmers, LiteGear, RC4, and W-DMX. There are future plans to introduce a low-cost transmitter for the dmxLINK system.

CRMX is a proprietary wireless DMX protocol developed by LumenRadio in Sweden.  Most wireless DMX distribution systems, including CRMX, operate on the same license free 2.4 GHz band as WiFi, ZigBee, Bluetooth, wireless intercoms, microphones, etc. Interference between such systems has been a growing problem in the industry with no available solution. LumenRadio’s CRMX is the first system to continuously scan the radio spectrum and dynamically adapt its frequency hopping patterns to the surrounding environment. This eliminates interference and maximizes performance of all radio systems in the same area. CRMX is an acronym for Cognitive Radio MultipleXer. It is essentially a smart radio that solves a daunting challenge, with no need for user expertise.

DMX fidelity and error correction ensures that DMX frames retain the exact same content and properties, including timing parameters, throughout the transmission process. This is important as many systems now employ moving lights, media servers and LEDs; devices that can severely misbehave if they receive DMX frames that in any way are fragmented or corrupt. In other words, in a system without fidelity DMX frames could arrive to a moving light with only 8 bits of a 16 bit parameter updated, the other 8 bits are old data, hence the 16 bit data field is corrupted which could lead to severe misbehavior of a fixture. The error correction mechanism recreates lost, or corrupted, radio packets thus helping to ensure that the signal have perfect fidelity even under bad radio conditions.

Synchronization guarantees that the DMX frames are delivered by all receivers at exactly the same time regardless of their location and the presence of other radio systems. This is for example critical to maintain uniformity during color changes in large area LED installations controlled by multiple receivers. Likewise the latency have huge impact on many setups. The latency is the time it takes for the signal to propagate through the system. With the low latency of only 5 milliseconds it is impossible to the human eye to detect the difference in time of a signal delivered by a cable compared to a signal delivered by a CRMX system. Some systems have long latency times, resulting in noticeable delays of the signal. Or even worse, the system might not have latency control at all, making it impossible to predict the delay of the signal.
