The control module on the front end of the Pro 1220 allows you to set the DMX protocol and assign
the fixture address, which is defined as the first channel from which the Pro 1220 will respond to
the controller. If you select a protocol that requires 15 channels and you set the address to channel
10, the Pro 1220 will be using channel 10 to 24 for control. You must address the Pro 1220 fixtures
according to your controller configuration, or vice versa, ensuring that you do not have any overlap-
ping channels, thus enabling you to operate each Pro 1220 independently from any other fixture on
the link. If two, or more, Pro 1220 fixtures are addressed similarly, they will also respond similarly.
Follow this procedure for each of the Pro 1220 fixtures on the link:
1.
Switch on the Pro 1220 and wait until the fixture 'reset' has finished.
2.
Press [enter] once in order to access the main-menu and browse through the menu, using the
arrow keys, until the display shows 'PSEt'. Now, press the arrow keys until the correct protocol
number is displayed and press [enter] to confirm.
3.
Browse through the menu again, using the arrow keys, until the display shows 'dAdr' or 'Adr'.
Depending on whether you want to assign the fixture a DMX or Martin address, confirm by
pressing [enter] at 'dAdr' or 'Adr'.
4.
Use the up and down arrows to select the desired fixture address and confirm by pressing
[store].

After having addressed all fixtures on the link, you may now start operating these via your lighting
controller.
NOTE: After switching on, the Pro 1220s will automatically detect whether a Martin RS-485 or
DMX 512 controller is connected. To ensure correct protocol auto-detection it is recommended that
the controller is switched on before the Pro 1220s.
If you are using a Martin controller please refer to the manual for that controller for further instruc-
tions. If you are using a DMX controller then please refer to the DMX protocol listed in appendix a.
All remotely controllable functions are briefly described in the section 4 - 'REMOTELY CON-
TROLLABLE FUNCTIONS'.
NOTE: The Pro 1220 is fitted with a remotely operated relay, allowing you to turn the lamp on and
off from your controller without affecting the rest of the fixture. Therefore, after switching on the
Pro 1220 the lamp will remain off until you send the 'Lamp Power ON' command from the control-
ler. Please read the paragraph called 'LAMP' in section 5 - 'REMOTELY CONTROLLABLE
FUNCTIONS'. If you attempt to switch on the lamp within 8 minutes after having switched it off,
the Pro 1220 will store this 'Lamp Power ON' command, and ignite the lamp when the 8 minute
period has expired.
