We found parts to build a few of a much loved DMX test tool, the μDMX. The Micro was produced from 1992 thru 1995, and was replaced in our product line by the MiniDMXter. While the more expensive Mini does more than μDMX, its simplicity of operation made it a favorite of some people.
 
The μDMX (Micro-DMX) is a hand held battery powered digital multiplexed dimmer protocol generator. It is designed specifically to operated one handed. While there have been smaller testers, none have had the balance and feel of the Micro. The primary protocol it supports is USITT DMX512(1990). It also supports Colortran "CMX" protocol and AVAB "Light Transmission Protocol". Its main use is to bring a DMX device to any level. It’s simple to use, with much of what you need to know printed on the front panel.

These units are being offered with newly updated software:

Bring up any slot, any combination of slots, or all slots to the same level.
Bump levels to ‘off’, to 50% , and to 100%
Auto increment slot numbers by 1 or 10, or bump back to slot 1.

We have a limited number of units. They are either new, made from our stock of original parts, or reconditioned units. All carry a new warranty. Some units may have cosmetic blemishes. That’s been factored into the price. Follow this link to see a photo of the μDMX.

If you need an inexpensive but very handy riggers’ remote, the Micro is a good choice.
