Patch
Each GEN·VI dimmer unit numbers its channels from channel 1 through to channel 12.
The patch menu allows you to patch (connect) DMX slots (addresses) from your DMX lighting
controller to GEN·VI
channel numbers. Patches are often performed in contiguous blocks of
addresses.
Note: The DMX Address
button on the “DMX Address” home page provides a rapid method of
patching all of the dimmers in one
GEN·VI
unit to sequential DMX slots, starting from a DMX address
that you select. See section 5.3.2

patches are required when,

channel number
.
•
A single DMX slot number is to control multiple GEN·VI channel numbers.
