DMX 

channel 

Function  Description 

Position 

rough 

This channel controls the position of the winch, with the speed (DMX channel 3). 
This rough position works together with the fine position (DMX channel 2). 
The rough position and the fine position are multiplied in to a 16 bit channel. The 

rough position is the MSB

Position 

fine 

This channel controls the position of the winch, with the speed set on DMX 

channel 3. 
This fine position works together with the rough position (DMX channel 1). 
The fine position and the rough position are multiplied in to a 16 bit channel. The 

fine position is the LSB

Speed 

This channel controls the speed and defines the max lifting/lowering speed of the 

winch. 
The winch runs with the set max speed, but slows down as closing in on the 

wanted position. 
This channel also works as a main brake; the motor does not run unless the 

channel is set above 0%. 
The speed-channel can also be used to make soft and slow movements or fast and 

sudden movements. 

Motor 

enable 

Channel 4 is used as an extra security channel. The value on channel 4 needs to be 

between 50 and 55 %, for the motor to run.  
All other values make the motor stop.  
All other values will also reset any error shown. 
All other values will save the current position before a power down. 

Reset UP 

There is a 3s delay on this channel to reduce risk of accidentally resetting the top 

position. 
Channel 5 is used to manually move the wire up. When channel 5 is set ≥ 10% the 

winch will move up until it reaches the limit switch UP. 10 – 100% makes the 

motor run up, at variable speed.  (10% = low speed – 100% = full speed). 
Setting DMX channel 5 to 0 resets the position. 

Manual 

DOWN 

There is a 3s delay on this channel to reduce risk of accidentally setting a new 

range. 
Channel 6 is used to manually move the wire down.  When channel 6 is set ≥ 10% 

the winch will move down, until it reaches the DOWN limit switch. 10 – 100% 

makes the motor run down, at variable speed. (10% = low speed – 100% = full 

speed). 
 The position is reset and a new TAC RANGE is calculated. The new range is the 

tacho pulses, between top position set by channel 5 and bottom position set by 

channel 6. 
The winch should be reset to the top position with channel 5 before the range is 

set with channel 6.
