Fixture setup
This section explains the fixture characteristics that can be set that determine
how it can be controlled and will behave. These settings are made using the
menus available from the control panel and are retained when the fixture is
powered off. Only the most commonly used menu options are described in this
section. A complete map of the control menu structure and brief explanations
of their purposes can be found in ‘Control menus’ on page 36.

During normal operation, the display shows the fixture’s DMX address or the
selected standalone show. To access the control menus, press the MENU

DMX settings
DMX address
The RUSH™ Scanner 1 LED uses 16 DMX channels. The DMX address, also
known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions
from a DMX controller. Each DMX controlled fixture must have a DMX address
set. For example, if a fixture has a DMX address of 10, then it uses channels
10 through 25. The following fixture in the DMX chain can then be set to a
DMX address of 26.
For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own control
channels. Two fixtures of the same type may share the same address if
identical behavior is desired. Address sharing can be useful for diagnostic
purposes and symmetric control, particularly when combined with the inverse
pan and tilt options.
To set the fixture’s DMX address:
1. Enter the control menu and select DMX ADDRESS. Press ENTER. The
current address setting will blink on the display.
2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select an address from 1 to 497.
3. Press ENTER to confirm your selection.
