The DMXcat™ system from City Theatrical is a useful device that's designed for the lighting professional who is involved with the planning, installation, operation, or maintenance of theatrical and/or studio lighting equipment. It consists of a compact hardware interface device and a suite of mobile applications. Together, they combine to bring DMX/RDM control plus several other functionalities to the user's smartphone for use wherever and whenever needed. Developed with input from designers and technicians, the DMXcat should prove to be an indispensable tool for lighting users. The DMXcat will operate with both Android and IPhones.
DMXcat's interface unit is a small battery device that can easily fit in a pocket or tool pouch, or can be worn on a belt. It employs Bluetooth® LE technology for communication with the smartphone/applications (up to 35ft range). Without the limitations of a physical connection, the user is free move about the work-space as needed with their smartphone, running the various apps, while still using the phone for on-the-job communication. The device's 5-pin XLRF connector/cable assembly allows it to be connected to a point in a DMX data chain to allow testing and/or control of the various DMX/RDM channel functions. It is charged using a standard USB to Micro-USB cable and charger.
Other highlights include a built-in LED flashlight, audible alarm (for locating a misplaced unit), LED Status indicator, plus a removable belt clip.
There are currently seven (7) tools available or in development for use within the DMXcat app. Apps are available through Google Play (Android) or the Appstore (IPhone).

This tool is a life saver I've had it on the job for a few weeks now and it has come in handy more times then I can count. It's integration of the RDM feature more then justifies the cost. I 100% recommend it to anyone who works in lighting, production, or repair.

I have owned several other DMX testers. Many of the name brands that most DMX professionals own. The City Theatrical DMXcat is so much better because of the large touchscreen on your phone or tablet. I love it! It has become the tester in my tool bag. My only hope is that City Theatrical continues the line. I would like to see a NETcat that would test ArtNet, KiNet, and SACN. I would also love a PXLcat or SPIcat that would test WS28XX pixels and other SPI protocols.
