OVERVIEW

KEY FEATURES

The NETRON RDM10 is a first of its kind hybrid splitter. Dual DMX input, 10 port RDM Splitter,
Merger and EthernetDMX Gateway are unified into the RDM10, with an advanced feature set
to cover a wide variety of applications. 99 internal cues, factory and user presets, plus external
contact closures provide a unique combination of multiple devices to solve many required tasks
in one powerful unit.

- 2x Input, 10x Output ports

- RDM Splitter, HTP / LTP DMX Merge

- 2 Universe sACN and Artnet to DMX conversion

- Premade NETRON presets for instant setup

- 10 User Presets

- 99 Cues with Fade Time, Hold Time and Cue linking

- External contact closures to trigger cues and preset recall

- DMX Monitor

- DMX and Ethernet Test Generator

ETHERNET CONNECTION

The RDM10 provides two Gigabit RJ45 connections for data input. One port supports POE

802.3af power input and is marked with POE on the back of the device. Both ports are
connected to an internal highspeed network switch, allowing daisy chaining of multiple devices.
To avoid synchronization delays it is not recommended to chain more than 10 devices together.
The ports are auto-crossing, eliminating the need for RJ45 crossover cables.

SOFTWARE AND OPERATION

This document provides safety information and mechanical installation instructions.

For setup and operation of all software features, please update the devices to the latest release.
Download and study the full user guides from http://obsidiancontrol.com/netron.
The NETRON Ether-DMX devices offer a comprehensive and easy to use feature set, and are
continuously improving. It is advised to periodically check for updates on the Obsidian product
pages.

DMX CONNECTIONS

All DMX Output connections are 5pin female XLR; however, the pin – out on all sockets is pin 1 to
shield, pin 2 to cold ( – ), and pin 3 to hot (+). Pins 4 and 5 are not used.

Carefully connect DMX cables to the respective ports.

To prevent damaging the DMX ports, provide strain relief and support. Avoid connecting FOH
Snakes to the ports directly.

ETHERNET DATA CONNECTION

The Ethernet cable is connected on the back of the gateway into the port labeled A or B. Devices
can be daisy chained, but it is recommended not to exceed 10 Netron devices in one chain.
Because these devices use locking RJ45 connectors, and the use of locking RJ45 ethernet cables
is recommended, any RJ45 connector is suitable.

To connect multiple devices to an EtherDMX Source, an Ethernet switch is required to split the data
into the desired number of streams.

The Ethernet connection is also used to connect a computer to the Netron device for remote
configuration via a web browser. To access the web interface, simply enter the IP address shown
in the display in any web browser connected to the device. Information about the web access can
be found in the manual.

RDM10. The inputs are simple dry contact closures and are provided in
ten pairs of trigger and ground connections.

DO NOT APPLY VOLTAGE TO THE CONTACT! DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE INPUT
AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

The RDM10 is shipped with two terminal blocks that connect to the back ports. Lost or missing blocks
can be purchased from authorized Obsidian Dealers.

As you scroll up or down the menu, the arrows indicate that more items are available above or below
that which is displayed, and only show when needed.

The Netron RDM10 uses a small OLED display for feedback and setup. The encoder dials up
and down through the menu, a push of the encoder selects an item or saves an entry. Revert
to a previous menu or cancel an entry with a single push of the back arrow.

The home page shows the A and B input status. Valid traffic and the source are indicated with a full colored box.
The current merge mode and active source are displayed in the bottom half for immediate overview of the merge
activity. Certain Merge statuses like an active Backup will yield a red background, indicating that the unit triggered
its backup source.

A cue is a full static snapshot of all DMX values of all ports. The
device supports 99 cues with fade and hold times, plus a link
option to loop multiple cues together. This allows small “mini”
cuelists to be created. Cues are used for standalone operation,
as a backup for signal loss or can be assigned to one of the
switch inputs. This is often used for fire alarm situations where a
system must go to a defined state and stop all console playback.
Cues can be sent as Ethernet Universes so one device can drive
many other Netron devices.
