2.3.1 Entering DMX start addresses for fixtures
Press the softkey PATCH. The first fixture in the fixture list is automatically activated and start address
no. 1 or the first not occupied DMX address is recommended by the controller for the patch (DMX
channels cannot be double-assigned). If you wish to control fixture no. 1 with DMX channel 1, DMX line
A, then confirm by pressing the softkey PATCH. Now the second fixture of the list is displayed inverted
and the controller automatically recommends the next not occupied channel for the patch. (The example
above recommends DMX channel 9, since the Varyscan 4 is controlled with 8 DMX channels.) Press the
softkey PATCH again to confirm this start address. If you need a start address other than that
recommended by the controller, select the desired start address with the left encoder wheel and press the
softkey PATCH for confirmation.
Select the fixtures with the middle encoder wheel.
Press the softkey A/B to determine the DMX line of the fixtures.
Press the ESC key to leave this menu.

To delete a particular start address, press the softkey CONFIG/PATCH to enter the Patch menu. Select
the corresponding fixture with the centre encoder wheel. As soon as the fixture is displayed inverted,
press the softkey OPEN to delete the start address.
Press the ESC key to leave this menu.

address.
