Each
ColourCyc 250 LX
utilises
6 channels
of DMX signal for complete control of all its functions.
To ensure that each unit accesses the correct signal, it is necessary to correctly address each fixture. Any number between 1 and 506
can be generated via the dip-switches of the
ColourCyc 250 LX
.
This procedure must be carried out on every unit being utilised, positioning the dip-switches to either
ON
or
OFF
depending upon
what DMX address is required.
The DMX address of a particular projector is the sum total of the dip-switches settings, for example:
DMX 42
is obtained by switching the dip-switches values
32+8+2
to
ON
DMX 82
is obtained by switching the dip-switches values
64+16+2
to
ON
The diagram below shows how to set the dip switches to their
ON
position, setting the address to
DMX 1
.Obviously, any DMX
address can be achieved by adding together the values achieved when switching on the respective dip switches.
eg. dmx address n° 1
The first projector will utilise
DMX address 1
; a projector thus addressed will respond to commands on channels
1
to
6
from the
DMX 512
controller. A second projector should be addressed as
7
a third as
13
and so on until the final unit has been addressed.
Ensure that none of the DMX values you assign overlap. This will ensure that each projector can have all its functions individually
addressed by the console.
