BT-DMX

Wireless Servo Controller Base Station

The BT-DMX and BT-Servo are used for wireless control of remote control-style ServoMotors from a PC•MACs Animation Control System, Br-Brain4, Sd-50 or any other source of DMX-512 data.

The BT-Servo and BT-DMX use a bidirectional 900 MHz link. You can wirelessly configure the BT-Servo cards, or check on temperature, battery levels and the BT-Servo card status from any PC or Mac.

Features of the BT-DMX include:

• Configured through USB serial port from any PC or Mac. Once talking to BT-DMX, you can talk wirelessly to the BT-Servo cards to configure them.
  BT-DMX
• 
• 900 MHz frequency band. 49 software selectable, noninterfering channels.
• Five pin XLR for DMX-512 input.
• Each BT-DMX transmits data for up to 128 ServoMotors.
• Range of up to 500 feet outdoors.
• Nine indicator LEDs show data updates, power, configuration status, etc…
• 3.1″ x 4.5″ x 1.7″. Small enough to be placed close to the set.
• Includes 12 vdc power supply. 110 vac standard, 220 vac on request.

Features of the BT-Servo include:

• Control up to sixteen remote control-style ServoMotors from each BT-Servo.
• Accepts eight or twelve bit resolution position commands. ServoMotor positions are oversampled and calculated in sixteen bits for smoothness.
• Automatic Ease-In when DMX-512 or RF update signals start or stop.
• 900 MHz frequency band. 49 software selectable, noninterfering channels.
• Up to 128 servos (at 8 bits of resolution) on each frequency spread across eight or more BT-Servo cards. Up to 85 servos per frequency at 12 bits.
• Each ServoMotor’s ends of travel can be set anywhere between .759 and 2.241 milliseconds. Endpoints do not interact during adjustment.
• 
• All settings are stored in nonvolatile memory.
• Two indicator LEDs show data updates, errors in received data, etc.
• Runs from 5 to 12 vdc servo power. Automatic servo shutoff if voltage drops below a user-preset level, or when Rf updates are not received.
• 2.025″ tall x 1.025″ wide x .425″ thick. About the size as a 9 volt battery!
