8. DEVICE DMX START ADDRESS SELECTION
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal
，
so that the
correct fixture responds to the correct control signals.This digital starting address is the channel
number from which the fixture starts to
“ listen ” to the digital control information sent out from the
DMX controller.The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the correct address
number on the display located on the base of the device.
You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures
， or set different
addresses for each fixture individually.
If you set the same address on all devices
，
all the devices will start to
“
listen
”
to the same control
signal from the same channel number.In other words ， changing the settings of one channel will
affect all the fixtures simultaneously.
If you set a different address
，
each unit will start to
“
listen
”
to the channel number you have set
，
based on the quantity of control channels of the unit.That means changing the settings of one
channel will affect only the selected device.
In the case of the LED moving head
， in 35 channel mode ， you should set the starting address of
the first unit to 1
，
the second unit to 36(35 + 1)
，
the third unit to 71 (35 + 36)
，
and so on.
