When DMX misbehaves, the symptoms can be misleading—flicker, lag, random color shifts, fixtures dropping offline, or “it works until the building is busy.” We troubleshoot with a structured process that isolates the real failure point quickly, instead of guessing. We check signal path and topology, termination, shielding/grounding, cable integrity, and common failure points like splitters, opto-isolation, connectors, and power-related interference.

We also investigate the control side: universe layout, channel overlap, addressing errors, fixture mode mismatches, refresh rate/timing issues, RDM conflicts, and network gateway configuration when Art-Net/sACN is involved. Then we provide clear findings and a practical fix plan—often including on-site corrections, configuration cleanup, and “do this next time” prevention steps. You don’t just get the system working again; you get it stable and understandable.

Stop chasing flicker and dropouts—let’s pinpoint the cause and lock in the fix.
