DMX operation
Setting the number of DMX channels and the DMX starting address
For operation with a controller with DMX512 protocol, the device is equipped with 7 control channels.
However, it can also be switched to a mode with 1, 2, 4 or 7 channels if different functions are required. To
be able to operate the device with a DMX controller, the DMX starting address must be set. The starting
address depends upon which DMX controller is being used. Please refer to the controller’s documentation.
1 Press the
MENU
button so many times until

is indicated on the display.
2 Set the address via the UP and DOWN buttons and press the MENU button to return to the main menu.
3 Now press the
MENU
button so many times until
DMX-Mode
is indicated on the display.
4 The display then indicates
1CH
(1 DMX channel),
2CH
(2 DMX channels),
4CH
(4 DMX channels) or
7CH
(7 DMX channels). Use the buttons
UP
and

to select the desired DMX mode. Please press

5 The DMX address will be shown on the LCD when DMX signals are being received. If no control signals
are available, the DMX address and “No DMX Signal” will appear alternately on the display.
Note: Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each device
correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX chain. If several devices are addressed
similarly, they will work synchronically.
The individual channels and their features are listed under Functions in DMX mode.
