There’s a HTP trick you must know with this one!.
Steve48 14.06.2019
I first thought my equipment was somehow faulty, because they explain the buttons of this dmx merger in a very strange way. Dmx is like a computer language, it’s not like sounds travelling down the dmx wire, it’s actually a data stream. If you want to combine the dmx signals, of two lighting desks, into one signal, you must set this device to HTP mode, “highest takes priority”, by switching the little dip switches on the back of the unit, please see Thomann’s product photos above, and NOT the instruction manual!. This will then combine two lighting desks signals, into one, single signal, both operating at the same time, with the same channels. The product manual doesn’t show the essential second bank of dip switches on the back of the unit, making the manual incredibly confusing, the product photo shows these though, and don’t set these switches to merge mode either, like I did!, that splits the channels into two separate wedges, for two separate devices, but on one wire?, very confusing. HTP mode, combines both desks together perfectly, right away. Now it’s spot on, very happy, it works great.

Perfect problem solver

This unit allows us to have two lighting desks in use simultaneously, one wired and one for iPad control in the auditorium. Setting the unit to LTP allows either desk to take control and the dual DMX outputs make wiring into the system a breeze.

se simplifier la vie
gotouf 24.05.2011
Bonjour
j'ai acheter ce produit afin de me simplifier la vie, en effet avant je possédais deux petite console d'éclairage et pour tout éclairer sur mon grill je tirais deux lignes dmx une pour chaque console. Et mes console étant de l'entrée de gamme je ne pouvais envoyer qu'un programme à la fois. Le merger m'a permis de séparer sur une console tout ce qui est mouvement et sur l'autre les couleur et les gobos du coup j'avais presque une vrai grande console au final. Le fait de pouvoir décaler l'adresse dmx est prtique ainsi que le choix htp ou ltp. Le prix est un des plus attractif du marché, matériel à acheter.

Was man will
Dennis W 03.08.2017
Der Merger von Botex macht, was er soll.
19", also direkt ins Rack, Kabel ran - vorne und hinten sind die selben Anschlussmöglichkeiten - und Strom an, wobei das Netzteil extern und nichtmehr zeitgemäß ist, immerhin mit verrigelbarem Anschluss.
Das Teil läuft sofort, ohne lästiges hochfahren etc. und tut was es soll: HTP, LTP, Merge, Add all das lässt es mit sich machen.

Etwas nervig ist dann allerdings die Bedienung, durch DIP-Switches (DIP-SWITCHES! - in 2017) kann man die Modi an der Rückseite auswählen und konfigurieren.
D.h. im Rack erstmal ausbauen, weil auch die Tiefe so gering ist, dass man im Normalfall nicht rankommt und umstellen, einschrauben. Das schein nicht wirklich durchdacht aber wer nicht alles immer ändert ist zufrieden.
Und um mich meinen Vorrednern anzuschließen - ja die blaue Power-Led ist echt hell und die DMX-Signal Leds blinken mit verschiedenen Frequenzen, sodass man irgendwann genug hat und sie auch abklebt.

Aber das sind nur Designlücken, die Funktion ist voll und ganz gegeben! Empfehlung
