“OFF” position.

Operation
With all of the DMX and power cables properly connected and DMX addressed, you
may switch the DMX FX-
15™ Switch Pack on by increasing the value of the assigned
DMX channel to 128-255 (50%-100%).
Decrease the value of the assigned DMX channel to 0-127 (0%-49%) to turn the DMX
FX-
15™ Switch Pack off.
If for any reason the DMX signal is lost (e.g. the DMX console is turned off), the DMX
FX-
15™ Switch Pack will turn off the power to the attached device.
It is always recommended to use a DMX line terminator at the end of your DMX run to
soak up any residual DMX signal.
