System Overview

TX1 Transmitter
The TX1 Transmitter is the DMX wireless gateway for the ArcMesh
protocol.
One transmitter:
•
Controls up to 100 devices across 64 DMX addresses.
•
Has a 24 preset scene memory.
•
Has DMX wired output for control of third party equipment
within scene store.
•
Has two auxiliary inputs for closed contact connection to
trigger a stored scene.
Each transmitter can be set to one of 16 available network IDs
allowing multiple transmitters to be used concurrently without
“cross-talk.” When two or more transmitters are set to the same
network ID and radio channel, the transmitter with the highest
MAC address acts as a master with the others assuming the role of
backup.
For information on system installation, see
ArcMesh
ArcSystem products can be controlled using wired DMX through RJ45 connections, or the
wireless ArcMesh protocol. A wireless installation is an ideal solution for retrofit situations where
installing additional cable is not practical.
The following diagram illustrates a basic hybrid ArcSystem installation with a wireless luminaire,
TX1 Transmitter, and a wired DMX console for the main control source.

TX1 Transmitter
Each system requires a minimum of one TX1 Transmitter. The TX1 is used as a transmitter of
wireless data to luminaires or other devices within a system.
Note:
By default the TX1 DMX output is disabled. If you require DMX output from the
TX1, you must use the ArcSystem comissioning tool software to add DMX fixtures.
