The DMX control options are selected on the Mode DIP switch.
1-channel DMX mode allows you to strobe from 0
flashes per second to the maximum flash rate and
trigger the blinder effect from the controller. To select
1-channel DMX operation, set pin 5 of the Mode DIP
switch to on; set pins 1 to 4 to off.
3-channel DMX mode provides control of flash
intensity, flash duration, and flash rate for more
advanced control than 1-channel mode. To select 3-
channel DMX operation, set pins 1 to 5 of the Mode
DIP switch to off.
4-channel DMX mode provides six special effects in
addition to flash intensity, duration, and rate control. To
select this 4-channel DMX operation, set pins 1, 2, 3,
and 5 to off; set pin 4 to on.

The control address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to
receive instructions from the controller. The address may be any channel from 1
to 511 and is set on the Address DIP switch.
The Atomic 3000 uses 1, 3, or 4 channels depending on the control mode. For
independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own address and non-
overlapping control channels. Two or more Atomic 3000s may share the same
address if individual control is not required.
