The LSC Clarity QX products are DMX512-A decoders (Nodes).
They connect to a standard computer (PC or MAC) via the USB port and provide either 2 (QX2) or 4 (QX4) DMX512-A outputs. The QX nodes integrate directly to the LSC Clarity software and appear automatically as possible output devices on Clarity's Patch Window.
Each output port complies to the latest DMX512 specification and is fully RDM compatible. In addition, each port is electrically isolated from every other output as well as the computer to ensure that "common-mode" voltages cannot cause any DMX512 data problems.
A multi-colour LED indicator located near each output indicates when the output is active, when it is sending DMX512 data and when it is handling RDM data. A similar LED near the USB connector indicates a valid USB connection or any errors detected.
Housed in a sturdy ABS plastic case the QX nodes are designed to be rugged and durable.
The QX Nodes are designed to get their power from the USB port on your computer or from a USB hub.
If there is insufficient power from these devices there there is an external power input where a Plug-Pack can be plugged in to provide sufficient power.
