OFFSETS
The setting of offsets may best be illustrated by using an example, as described below and shown in
Fig. 10.
Assume that you wish to merge the outputs from
(a)
a 256-channel DMX desk (Input 1)
(b)
a 24-channel DMX desk (Input 2)
(c)
a 12-channel analogue desk (Analogue)
To clear any previous programming of offsets, select the input you wish to clear by pressing either In1, In2
or Ana and then hold down + and - together until CLR appears in the display.
