DMX Linking
The 4BAR™ Tri USB works with a DMX controller. Information about DMX is in the
Chauvet’s
DMX Primer, which is available from the Chauvet website
http://www.chauvetlighting.com/downloads/DMX_Primer_rev05_WO.pdf .
Configuration
(DMX)
Set the product in DMX mode to control with a DMX controller.
1. Connect the product to a suitable power outlet.
2. Connect a DMX cable from the DMX output of the DMX controller to the DMX input
socket on the product.
DMX Personality
and Starting
Address
When selecting a starting DMX address, always consider the number of DMX channels the
selected DMX mode uses. If you choose a starting address that is too high, you could
restrict the access to some of the product’s channels.
The 4BAR™ Tri USB uses up to 15 DMX channels in a 15-CH DMX mode, which defines
the highest configurable address to
498 .
If you are not familiar with the DMX protocol, download the DMX Primer from
www.chauvetlighting.com .
To select the starting address, do the following:
1. Press
<MENU> repeatedly until 3-CH or 15CH shows on the display.
2. Press <ENTER> and d 1–d512 will show on the display.
3. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the starting address.
4. Press <ENTER> .
