DMX Linking

You can link the Maverick MK1 Spot to a DMX controller using a 3- or 5-pin DMX connection. If using other
DMX-compatible products with this product, you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.

DMX personalities

The Maverick MK1 Spot uses a 3- and 5-pin DMX data connection for the 22- and 29-channel DMX
personalities.
• Refer to the Introduction for a brief description of each DMX personality.
• Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the Maverick MK1 Spot to work in these
personalities.
• The DMX Values section provides detailed information regarding the DMX personalities.

Remote Device Management

Remote Device Management, or RDM, is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate
bi-directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller's User Manual or with the
manufacturer, as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The Maverick MK1 Spot supports RDM
protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options.

Signal Connection

The Maverick MK1 Spot can receive DMX, Art-Net™, sACN, or Kling-Net signal. The Maverick MK1 Spot has
® ®
two Neutrik etherCON through ports, and 3- and 5-pin DMX in and out ports. For more information about
DMX, read the DMX primer at:
https://www.chauvetprofessional.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/DMX_Primer.pdf
Art-Net™ Connection
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP that transfers a large amount of DMX512 data using a
® ®
Neutrik etherCON RJ45 connection over a large network. An Art-Net™ protocol document is available from
www.chauvetprofessional.com.
Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.

sACN Connection

Streaming ACN, also known as ANSI E1.31, is an Ethernet protocol that uses the layering and formatting of
Architecture for Control Networks to transport DMX512 data over IP or any other ACN-compatible network.
ACN is maintained by the Professional Lighting and Sound Association (PLASA).

Kling-Net Connection

Kling-Net is a network protocol that allows auto configuration of display devices using an Ethernet connection.
Refer to the ArKaos software manual for detailed instructions on programming this product.

Kling-Net protocol)
The three LED indicators in between the Ethernet through ports indicate a connection to a
network and activity on that network. They do not indicate whether or not the
