DMX512 line lights are mainly distinguished by the number of segments, which is mainly based on their internal circuit design and control methods. Here are a few key points to distinguish the number of segments of DMX512 line lights:
1. DMX512 protocol:
DMX512 is a digital communication protocol used to control equipment such as stage lights. It allows users to send 512 independent data channels through a data line, each of which can control a device or part of a device.
2. Definition of the number of segments:
In DMX512 line lights, “number of segments” usually refers to the number of LED areas or groups (segments) that can be independently controlled. 例えば, a line light may have three independent LED segments, each of which can be independently set for brightness, color or other parameters.
3. Distinguishing method:
Physical structure: Observe the appearance and LED layout of the line light. Sometimes, there may be physical separation of LEDs between different segments, such as using different lampshades or colors. Controller settings: When the line light is connected to a DMX512 controller, users can view and set the parameters of each segment through the software or hardware interface. This is usually displayed on the software interface as the number of segments of the line light.
Data Channel: Since each DMX512 channel can control a device or part of a device, the number of segments of the line light can also be inferred by the number of DMX512 channels it uses. 例えば, if the line light uses three DMX512 channels, it may have three independent segments.
Product Specifications: Refer to the product specification sheet of the line light or the information provided by the manufacturer. This information usually clearly states the number of segments and other relevant parameters of the line light.
Practical Application: In practical applications, users can choose a DMX512 line light with an appropriate number of segments according to their needs. 例えば, if you need to create complex lighting effects or patterns, you may need to choose a line light with more segments.
