 - RX GAIN: Adjust the receive gain. Range between 0 and 7 with 7 as the higher gain. - TX GAIN: Adjust the transmitter gain. Range between 0 and 7 with 7 as the higher gain.   f. DMXMenu - OFFSET: Set the Offset of the DMX signal - SIZE: Set the Size of the DMX signal  g. StatisticsMenuThis screen indicates all the valid inputs and outputs in packets/seconds. This is useful for troubleshooting.  - DMX in: Number of receiving DMX packets/seconds  - DMX out: Number of transmitting DMX packets/seconds - ETH in: Number of receiving Ethernet packets/seconds  - ETH out: Number of transmitting Ethernet packets/seconds - BLE in: Number of receiving Bluetooth packets/seconds - BLE out: Number of transmitting Bluetooth packets/seconds - XBee in: Number of receiving 900 MHz packets/seconds - XBee out: Number of transmitting 900 MHz packets/seconds  PixMob Broadcaster 9
 6. Troubleshooting The Statistics menu is used to troubleshoot the Hub.   When Broadcaster is On and DMX signal is sent to the Hub, there shouldn’t be 0’s at DMX In, DMX Out, and BLE out.  When Bridge BLE is On, Bluetooth signal is sent to the Hub and the Hub is connected to a Network, there shouldn’t be 0’s at BLE In, ETH In and ETH Out  When Bridge XBee is On and 900 MHz signal is sent to the Hub, there shouldn’t be 0’s at XBee In, ETH In and ETH Out.  Also, the Indicator LEDs should be the same color as the DMX signal received.   7.
