XMT-500: The Ultimate DMX, RDM & Ethernet Diagnostic Tool

    • Versatile Network Integration: Supports bidirectional Art-Net and sACN data exchange across universes via a dedicated etherCON port.
    • Comprehensive Signal Control: Enables full-scale DMX signal generation and real-time monitoring of incoming data.
    • Remote Device Management: Provides the capability to locate and remotely configure RDM-compliant fixtures throughout the entire rig.
    • Precision Diagnostics: Delivers detailed timing analysis for DMX and RDM signals to ensure system stability.
    • Interconnect Verification: Features a built-in tester to confirm correct pinouts for both XLR and RJ-45 cabling.
    • High-Visibility Interface: Equipped with a full-color, sunlight-readable IPS TFT display for clear viewing in any environment.
    • Modern Power Solution: Includes an internal Li-ion battery with universal USB-C charging capabilities.

    The XMT-500 is the flagship of the Swisson testing family, offering the most comprehensive feature set for modern lighting professionals. While the XMT-450 provides a streamlined focus on DMX and RDM, the XMT-500 expands these capabilities into the network domain, making it an indispensable "all-in-one" tool for complex environments that rely on both traditional cabling and Ethernet-based protocols.

    Comprehensive Network & Signal Control: Building on the robust DMX and RDM foundations of the XMT-450, the XMT-500 adds full support for Art-Net and sACN via a rugged etherCON connection. Users can seamlessly send or receive values across any universe, and with the latest firmware updates, the device can even function as a portable 2-port Ethernet-to-DMX node. This allows for the remote configuration of RDM-compliant fixtures and the monitoring of network data streams with the same ease as a standard DMX signal.

    Advanced Diagnostic Suite: To ensure total system stability, the XMT-500 provides high-precision real-time insights into signal integrity. It monitors every timing aspect of DMX and RDM signals and offers data-package analysis to identify flickers or data collisions. For hardware troubleshooting, the integrated cable tester automatically scans all pin connections for 3-pin and 5-pin DMX cables, as well as RJ-45 interconnections. The included cable test dongle even allows for the effortless testing of long, pre-installed cable runs.

    Premium Hardware for the Field: The XMT-500 features the same modern interface as the XMT-450, centered around a vibrant, full-color IPS TFT display that remains perfectly readable even in direct sunlight. Its intuitive menu system and multifunction soft keys allow for rapid navigation in high-pressure environments. The internal high-capacity Li-ion battery ensures hours of operation and is conveniently rechargeable via USB-C.

    Future-Proof Performance: True to the Swisson philosophy of being "designed to grow with your needs," the XMT-500 is equipped with significant processing power and memory overhead. This ensures the device is ready for future feature expansions and protocol updates, making it a long-term investment for any professional lighting toolkit.
