NOTE: In order for RDM to work properly, RDM enabled equipment must be used throughout 

the entire system, including DMX data splitters and wireless systems. 

Remote Device Management (RDM) is a protocol that sits on top of the DMX512 data standard for 

lighting, allowing the DMX systems of the fixtures to be modified and monitored remotely. This proto-

col is ideal for instances in which a unit is installed in a location that is not easily accessible.  

With RDM, the DMX512 system becomes bi-directional, allowing a compatible RDM enabled control-

ler to send out a signal to devices on the wire, as well as allowing the fixture to respond (known as a 

GET command). The controller can then use its SET command to modify settings that would typically 

have to be changed or viewed directly via the unit’s display screen, including the DMX Address, DMX 

Channel Mode, and Temperature Sensors.
