BlackBox range represents the
pinnacle of wireless engineering excellence
applied to the control of lighting systems.
Now in their third generation, many thousands
of W-DMX
TM
BlackBox units have been supplied
around the globe and remain in regular use
within temporary and permanent installations.
The latest generation includes significant advances
in receiver sensitivity as well as greatly improved
interference blocking and noise suppression.
The indoor series receivers provide a full compli-
ment of front panel indicators to allow you to check
on operation. Of particular use is the five bar signal
strength indicator which is a valuable aid when posi-
tioning receiver units, especially at the limits of their
range or where obstructions exist in the path to the
transmitter. As with all BlackBox units, configuration
control is enabled via a single push button to provide
the easiest user interface in the industry.
The indoor series receivers can be powered either
from a mains AC power supply (90 to 260VAC) or
alternatively fed from a 12VDC supply as required by
each installation. Such instant flexibility explains why
these units are gaining so many fans in lighting com-
munities around the world.
All units are delivered with a multi purpose bracket
for easy mounting and rigging as well as a standard
2 dBi rubber whip antenna. A multitude of other
antennae options are available to raise the standard
range of 700m (2300 feet) to an impressive 2300m
(7550 feet). The indoor series receivers use the
licence free 2.45GHz ISM band and are specifically
certified for use in the United States, Canada, Japan
and all European Union countries.
There are two receiver options within the indoor series:
R-512 Single DMX universe receiver.
R-512 Pro Single DMX universe receiver with inter-
nal battery backup to provide up to two
hours operation without power input.
Both types of indoor series receivers are housed with-
in tough diecast aluminium casings which are suitable
for both indoor and fair weather outdoor operation.
For all these reasons and more, in every independ-
ent comparison with competing products BlackBox
W-DMX
TM
units continually take first place for distance
covered, resilience against interference, and ease of
installation and operation.
What is W-DMX
TM
?
The W-DMX
TM
technology lies at the heart of every one of our Black-
Box products. W-DMX
TM
is specifically engineered by Wireless Solu-
tion Sweden AB to provide the same quality, reliability and perform-
ance as any hardwired DMX data link. In fact W-DMX
TM
gives you
greater freedom to create reliable point-to-point, point-to-multipoint
and even multipoint-to-multipoint installations over large distances.
Point-to-point operation
W-DMX
TM
is unique in its use of certain advanced radio techniques
which are more often found in mobile phone and military communi-
cations. Rather than using fixed frequency channels, W-DMX
TM
uses
adaptive frequency hopping technology (as well as TDMA and GFSK
techniques) to continually check for interference and to rapidly move
operation over to clear radio channels. The frequency hops occur
one thousand times every second to ensure smooth, efficient and
robust operation.
The advantage of such technology will quickly become clear to you:
consistent and wide ranging control of your lighting systems over
potentially great distances.
Multipoint-to-multipoint operation
