Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a method for automatically assigning a digital multiplex (DMX) address of a dimming system, and more particularly to a software program for allocating a digital multi-station at a linked motion. The method of the address. v [Prior Art] When controlling the lighting of the stage performance, it is often required to change the setting of the light immediately due to uncontrollable factors at the scene; if you use a full-memory lighting controller, you can figure out how to operate it. In the past, the performance may have ended. Therefore, in order to meet the needs of the stage performance lighting, some digital dimming controllers are available in the market, and some digital dimming controllers can control the lighting of multiple sets of circuits and the changes of their lighting combinations. In the prior art, the digital dimming controller has a digital multiplex address (DMX Address) in each loop, and the user can set each loop with the finger-opening key built in the digital dimming controller. Digital DMI Address. At present, there are two methods for the correspondence between the dial switch code set value and the digital multiplex channel number. · 1 · Calculation method: Adding 1 to the sum of the key bit values is equal to the start address code of the DMx' to 10 For example, if the dialing button is used, the user of the dialing switch wants to set the address value to 38. The corresponding key position is the third digit, the 3 and 6 positions are, Γ, and the rest positions are “〇,,, When the sum of the dial switches is 32+4+1, then the sum of the bit values is increased by 1, which is the DMX start address code 38. 2. The look-up table method. 1285521 According to the conventional techniques, all current digital adjustments are known. Light control crying requires the user to control the MX channel number by means of the finger switch, so that the light connected to the digital skin control can be changed in many styles. However, these require the user to manually control the target to be controlled. Far from the controller or higher, it is inconvenient for the control user. [Invention] In view of the above-mentioned lack of the prior art, the inventor of the present invention proposed a "multiple automatic allocation of dimming system. Work (Μχ) address method. The purpose of the present invention is to utilize a software program to automatically assign a digital multiplex address to a connected dimming system without the need to use a dip switch to control the allocation of digital multiplex addresses. In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for automatically assigning a digital multiplex (10) X) address of a dimming system, comprising a transmission-control signal to a plurality of 5-cycle optical systems, and setting a "digital multi-guard address". The dimming system; determining whether the dimming systems have been set to the last one; automatically assigning the digital multiplex address to the dimming systems; storing the assigned digital multiplex addresses in the dimming systems And displaying the states of the dimming system settings on a plurality of LEDs of a control panel. 〜 实施 实施 实施 实施 实施 实施 实施 实施 实施 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 The features and characteristics of the field are to be understood and understood.

Please refer to the first figure, which is a flow chart of a dimming system according to a first embodiment of the present invention. A method for automatically assigning a digital multiplex (DMX) address method includes transmitting-and-communicating signals to a plurality of dimming systems (S100). The control signal is generated by a picture of the human body. The receiver sets a digital multiplex address to the dimming Li will first (S102)' where the digital multiplex address is 2 N-th power calculation. Determining whether the dimming systems have been set to the last - (solid) (S104) ' If the result of the determination is yes, the automatic allocation of digital multiplex (DMX) addresses of the dimming systems is ended, and if the determination result is no , the digital multiplex address is automatically assigned to the dimming systems (Si 〇 6). And storing the assigned digital multiplexed address in the dimming system (s108); and displaying the states of the dimming system settings in a plurality of light emitting diodes of a control board (S110). Please refer to the second figure, which is a flowchart of a method for automatically allocating a digital multiplex (DMX) address of a dimming system according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and an automatic distribution digital multiplex control software for a dimming system is started (82〇) 〇), generating a control signal and transmitting to a plurality of dimming systems (S202), setting a digital multiplex address to the dimming systems (S204), wherein the digital multiplex address is 2 nth power The person who obtained the calculation method. Determining whether the dimming systems have been set to the last one (S206)' If the judgment result is yes, the automatic allocation of digital multiplex (DMX) addresses of the dimming systems is ended, and if the judgment result is no, Automatically assigning the digital multiplex address to the dimming systems (S208), storing the allocated digital multiplex addresses in the dimming systems (S210), displaying the states of the dimming system settings in a control A plurality of light-emitting diodes on the board (S212). 1285521 According to the first and second embodiments, the automatic allocation digital multiplex control software of the dimming system starts to transmit a control connection of the dimming systems, and first activates a dimming system automatically. ^The multiplexed graphics control software, this step is not necessary, and then it is detected whether the first dimming system of the dimming system is connected. The connection can be completed through a network route to generate a The control signal is transmitted to a plurality of dimming systems. The control signal can be a transmitter connected through the RS-485 line, and then the digital multiplex address of the first dimming system of the dimming system is set to be set. After the digital multiplexed address of the first dimming system, the automatically assigned digital multiplexed graphics control software will automatically calculate the digital multiplex address in the second power of 2, and the current digital multiplex address The calculated address is transmitted to the next dimming system via RS-485. At the same time, the first dimming system will also store the configured digital multiplex address. This is always set to Last one Until dimming system, the final results will be displayed on the configuration of the light emitting diode on the respective dimming systems. The invention can reduce the shortcomings of the manual control, and automatically allocate the digital multiplex address of the dimming system by the software program, which can help the user to control the dimming on the stage or far from the control panel or at a high place. system.
