Easy Stand Alone DMX Controller

Quick Overview

Stand alone USB-DMX interface, 512 channels, 255 scenes, Clock/Calendar. Works with EASY STAND ALONE software only (not compatible with ESA PRO, Suite and Suite 2 software). Compatible with Windows XP/VISTA/SEVEN 32-bit or 64-bit version. This is easy to get working with our decoders, RGB, RGBDW, RGBW, and RGBA ribbon and we provide great information and technical support.

The SLESA-U8 includes:

• A controller box and USB cable (hardware).
• A bonus mini-USB adapter you can plug into a standard 120 VAC wall socket to operate your controller in stand-alone mode. The manufacturer does not provide this adapter, but when you buy from us, you get it as part of the package. Our opinion is that if you buy a stand-alone controller, you should be able to run it in stand-alone mode, with a small adapter, as well as tethered to your computer.
• A CD (software) containing the software and manuals.
• A custom "Getting Started" guide you won't find anywhere else.

Easy Stand Alone features include:

• Simple, easy to learn "mixer board" that runs on your PC.
• Allows you to independently set red, green and blue levels from 0-100%.
• Allows you to control many different color LED devices simultaneously, so one wall washer is showing one color, while your RGB panel is showing another, etc.
• Allows you to create "shows" comprising "scenes" and "steps."
• Control color levels and overall dimming level for each step.
• Control duration of each step.
• Control fade time from step to step.
• Address many devices independently at each step.
• Control whether the scene repeats.
• Control which scenes are played and when.
• Use the color wheel or separate R, G and B fader slides to dial in the exact color you want.
• Save your programs to your computer's hard disk.
• Write your programs to the controller, so it can operate by itself in Stand Alone mode.

Controller functions in 2 modes:

• Connected to your computer, receiving signals and power through the USB cable, or
• In Stand Alone mode, receiving power from the included adapter.

Controller box has the following physical features:

• 3-prong DMX IN port and OUT port.
• USB port that uses the included USB cable to connect to your PC (not Apple) computer or the power adapter.
• 10-pin male port that mates with Crestron and other keypad controls (not required, for convenience only.) Port pin-out is listed on page 28 of the manual, which you can download at "Documentation Tab" nearby.
