4 Pack MINI RF3: How To Set Up Wireless DMX

Introduction

This article provides simple, step-by-step instructions for setting up your Rockville Mini RF1 V2 lights from the charge package with a wireless DMX controller. Whether you're using four lights or the entire package, the process is exactly the same and easy to follow, even if you've never worked with DMX lighting before.

What You Need:

• Rockville Mini RF1 V2 Charge Package (4-Pack or more)
• Wireless DMX controller (compatible with RF color grouping)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Turning On and Setting Up Your Lights

1. Power on each Mini RF1 V2 light:
   • Hold down the power button until the light turns on.
2. Set lights to Wireless DMX (Slave Mode):
   • Double-press the power button until the LED indicator blinks twice quickly. This indicates the lights are in wireless DMX/slave mode.
3. Set all lights to the same RF color group:
   • Single-press the power button to cycle through color groups:
     • Red, Green, Yellow, or Blue.
   • Choose the desired color group for all your lights. (e.g., Red)

Step 2: Setting Up the Wireless DMX Controller

1. Turn on your Wireless DMX Controller.
2. Set the controller to the same RF color group as your lights:
   • Match the controller color group to your lights. (Example: set the controller to Red if your lights are set to Red.)

Step 3: Using the DMX Controller to Control Your Lights

Once your lights and controller are set to the same RF group, you're ready to use the faders to control your lights:

Example: Creating Custom Colors

You can mix LEDs to create customized colors:

• Adjust Faders 2-7 to blend colors. For example:
  • Slightly raise Fader 2 (Red)
  • Slightly increase Fader 4 (Blue)
  • Raise Fader 7 (UV) for added effect.

Example: Activating Built-In Modes

• Set Fader 9 between 120-159 to activate the color fade mode.
• Adjust Fader 10 to control the speed of the fade (higher values increase speed).

Troubleshooting & FAQs

Q: My lights aren't responding to my controller. What should I do?

• Make sure your lights and DMX controller are set to the same color group.
• Confirm that the lights are in Wireless DMX mode (indicator LED should blink quickly twice).

Q: Why are my lights not syncing?

• Double-check that your controller and lights share the same RF group (color group).
• Confirm each light is set to Wireless DMX mode (LED indicator blinking twice quickly).

Conclusion

You've now successfully set up your Rockville Mini RF1 V2 Charge Package lights with your Wireless DMX controller. This setup allows easy customization and synchronization for your lighting show.
