10. DMX ADDRESSING 

 

Setting the DMX address -

 After the fixture is turned “ON” it will immediately complete a 

reset process that test all the fixture’s functions. When the reset process concludes the LCD 

will display the fixture’s current DMX address. If the fixture is not receiving a DMX signal, the 

display will flash continuously. To set or adjust a DMX address, please follow the procedure 

below: 

 

 

1.  Toggle through the menu by pressing the Up and Down buttons until the display 

reads “Set DMX Address.” Tap the enter button to make changes to the address. 

2.  While  the  current  three-digit  address  is  flashing  use  the  “UP”  and  “DOWN” 

buttons to select a new address. Once the new address has been selected, lock 

the new address into the fixture’s memory by pressing the “ENTER” button. 

The DMX address is non-volatile and will remain in the fixture’s memory even when the 

power to the unit is switched off. Memory is backed-up and retain by an internal power 

source that should last about five years

address to be changed remotely from a DMX console. This setting requires special settings
