The NRD 8000 is actually two four channel dimmers coupled together to provide eight channels
of dimming in a single rack mountable package. Each group of four channels has its own
address switches. These controls channels are addressed in increments of four as outlined in the
chart above.
IMPORTANT: All NSI dimmer packs are shipped from the factory addressed for channels 1 -4. Units must be
readdressed (see chart above) before being capable of receiving any other channels.
