The CHAUVET DJ D-Fi USB - Here's How it Works

CHAUVET DJ Product Manager Rick Peeples walks you through the features and benefits of the new D-Fi USB. Easy, economic, wireless. Here's how it works.

[CHAUVETDJ]

+Michael Goldmann Yes, All D-Fi USB fixtures are compatible by going DMX cable in and D-Fi USB out and/or D-Fi USB in and DMX cable out. This is just like how fixtures work with our FlareCON Air except with the FlareCON Air you will need to plug the unit into a separate power outlet.

I want to do this exact setup using (2) 4Bar Tri USB units running Master/Slave. Do I only need one D-Fi USB stick? Please explain how this works. Your video is good, but you lost me when you plugged in the USB to the left bar and all of a sudden the right bar turned on. Sounds like I need (2) D-Fi units....one sending and the second receiving? Thanks :)

[michaelgoldmann]

Is it compatible with normal DMX? For example: DMX-in and D-Fi USB out, or the other way around?

Hi Rick I bought the USB wireless foot switch chauvet 4 bar how do you program this thing

[costumeguy]

If I have a DFI plugged into one fixture, can I then daisy chain dmx out of that fixture into other nearby fixtures?

[jeffreygreene]

First off, great video Rick. So, what if we want to add wireless DMX to our Intimidator 355Z's, without the bulk of the current D-Fi system, will there be an adaptor available for the D-Fi USB to DMX-XLR

[satisfactiongtd]

and why exactly are you not showing the setting up of the fixtures prior to plugging in usb stick, master slave settings and usb settings and i see NO videos showing how toANYWHERE

[jonram]

very good Idea - is that standard to any built-in wireless dmx lighs that can wirelessly control conected to laptop ( as a controller )

[moltenpros]

This is great technology. Finally someone solved the DMX chord problem.

If I have the Chauvet DJ Obey 4 D-Fi 2.4 Wireless DMX Lighting Controller. Would I be able to control the Chauvet Slimpack T6s if they have the USB D-FI plugged in to them?

Question. Will gig at floorboard run 2 separate gigbars at the same time?? Thanks

[SherwinBajao]

Nice video but what's up with the '70s pron music in the background?

[raggaroaringsound]

What is the difference between DI Fi Hub and Di Fi xlr transmitter? Is the signal strength the same? Having poor results with DiFi XLR and curious if the Di Fi Hub would work better?

[tonyrigg]

I just purchased the D-fi trans and receiver and found that used with my ADJ Ultrabar 12H there is a delay very noticable, have you or anyone have any idea why ?

[Skudaproductions]

Are you planning on making USB a standard in all future fixtures or will higher-end fixtures continue to have built in wireless and this be for entry-level fixtures only?

[kennyplay]

Hello. Does the slave light also need a d-FI USB? Thx

[rudymartinez]

hi, sorry if this is something that should be obvious, but do i have one of these connected to my laptop, then another to the fixture? or do i still need something else to plug into the usb on my laptop, and connect to a D-Fi hub or something of the sort?

[stevekorte]

Hello Rick,    How soon will the Chauvet Intimidator 255 IRC lights = will have a USB PORT for the D-FI USB?

[lukerame]

CHAUVET DJ, can someone set up a master fixture (in a chain of four SlimPARQ12 USB's) to run off of ONE D-Fi USB Transceiver? Along with a Flarecon Air device, do we need four USB's or can we use just the 'master' USB?

[terrywood]

How do you set the dip switches to make them either a transmitter or a receiver??
