RUSH® CS Series User Manual
You can set the DMX address of one fixture by sending a unicast RDM command to that one fixture only,
or you can set all the fixtures on the data link to the same DMX address by sending a broadcast RDM
command to all the devices on the link. If all the fixtures have the same DMX address, they will behave
identically and you will not be able to control any single fixture independently.
To set a DMX address:
1. In Martin® M-PC, go to RDM CONTROLLER
Scan
Properties
Advanced
Choose PID
Set DMX START ADDRESS.
2. In the Message column, enter the DMX address that you want to give to the fixture (or give to all the
fixtures if you are sending a broadcast command).
3. Press RDM SET to confirm your selection.
The Response column will show the setting result as either Success or Failed.
Dimming control
You can control the output intensity of the fixtures on the link via RDM.
You can control the intensity of one fixture by sending a unicast RDM command to that one fixture only, or

on the link.
To control intensity:
1. In Martin® M-PC, go to FUNCTION
MANUAL CONTROL
