Description
Swisson XMT-500 DMX Tester & RDM / Ethernet Controller
The basic functionalities of the XMT-500 include useful features for DMX, RDM, Art-Net, sACN, signal testing as well as cable testing. While the DMX functionality allows to send values to any DMX channel or observe received signals, the RDM features help to locate and remotely configure RDM-compliant fixtures. Moreover, sACN and Art-Net commands can be sent or viewed in the receive mode. Signal testing helps to check for signal integrity and provides real-time insights into the flow of data-packages and monitors timing aspects of DMX & RDM. Sometimes, issues are simply caused by faulty cables, the cable testing feature scans all pin connections in any 3-pin or 5-pin DMX cable as well as RJ-45 cable automatically. Thanks to the cable test dongle, even installed cables can be easily tested.
A full-color, backlit display provides high contrast visibility while the intuitive menu system and multifunction soft keys make navigation easy. The high-capacity internal Li-ion battery is compatible with common USB-C chargers.
In keeping with the motto “designed to grow with your needs”, the XMT-500 contains an impressive amount of processing power as well as plenty of memory space, which allows to feed the device with new features – complementary or as an upgrade.
