Operation
System parameter setting
- Long press M and ◀ key in the same time for 2s, prepare for setup system parameter: decode mode, output PWM frequence,
output brightness curve, automatic blank screen. short press M key to switch four item.
- Decode mode: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch 1/2/4 channel decode mode(“d-1″,”d-2” or “d-4”). When set as 1 channel
decode, the decoder occupy only 1 DMX address, and four channel output the same brightness of this DMX address.
- Output PWM frequency: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch 500Hz(“F-L”) or 2KHz(“F-H”).
Higher PWM frequency, will cause lower output current, higher power noise, but more suitable for camera(No flflickers for video).
- Output brightness curve: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch linear curve(“C-L”) or logarithmic curve(“C-E”).
- Automatic blank screen: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch enable (“bon”) or disable(“boF”) automatic blank screen.
- Long press M key for 2s or timeout 10s, quit system parameter setting.
DMX mode
- Short press M key, when display 001~999, enter DMX mode.
- Press ◀ or ▶ key to change DMX decode start address(001~999),long press for fast adjustment.
- If there is a DMX signal input, will enter DMX mode automatically.
- DMX Dimming: Each D4-XE DMX decoder occupy 4 DMX address

DMX mode
(001~999)
DMX Console | DMX Decoder Output |
CH1 0-255 | CH1 PWM 0-100% (LED R) |
CH2 0-255 | CH2 PWM 0-100% (LED G) |
CH3 0-255 | CH3 PWM 0-100% (LED B) |
CH4 0-255 | CH4 PWM 0-100% (LED W) |
Stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode
- Enter stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode only when DMX signal is disconnected or lost.
- Short press M key, when display P01~P30, enter stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode.
- Press ◀ or ▶ key to change dynamic mode number(P01~P30).
- Each mode can adjust speed and brightness.
Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup mode speed,
brightness, W channel brightness.
Short press M key to switch three item.
Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup value of each item.
Mode speed: 1-10 level speed(S-1, S-9, S-F).
Mode brightness: 1-10 level brightness(b-1, b-9, b-F).
W channel brightness: 0-255 level brightness(400-4FF).
Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.

Stand-alone dimmer mode
- Enter stand-alone dimmer mode only when DMX signal is disconnected or lost.
- Short press M key, when display L-1~L-8, enter stand-alone dimmer mode.
- Press ◀ or ▶ key to change dimmer mode number(L-1~L-8).
- Each dimmer mode can adjust each channel brightness independently.
Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup four channel brightness.
Short press M key to switch four channel(100~1FF, 200~2FF, 300~3FF, 400~4FF).
Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup brightness value of each channel.
Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.

Stand-alone dimmer mode
(L-1~L-8)
Restore factory default parameter
- Longpress ◀ and ▶ key for 2s, restore factory default parameter, display”RES”.
- Factory default parameter: DMX decode mode, DMX decode start address is 1, four channel decode, highPWM frequence output, logarithmic brightness curve, RGB mode number is 1,
dimmer mode number is 1, disable automatic blank screen.

Malfunctions analysis & troubleshooting
Malfunctions | Causes | Troubleshooting |
No light | 1. No power.
2. Wrong connection or insecure. |
1. Check the power.
2. Check the connection. |
Wrong color | 1. Wrong connection of R/G/B/W wires.
2. DMX decode address error. |
1. Reconnect R/G/B/W wires.
2. Set corrrect decode address. |
Uneven intensity between front and rear,with voltage drop | 1. Output cable is too long.
2. Wire diameter is too small. 3. Overload beyond power supply capability. 4. Overload beyond controller capability. |
1. Reduce cable or loop supply.
2. Change wider wire. 3. Replace higher power supply. 4. Add power repeater. |
