Menu Item Description
Port Direction
Set the DMX direction for the DMX Port.
Choose DMX Input or DMX Output (default) .
Patch/Universe
Allows selection of the patch for the DMX Port.
Use the UP and DOWN buttons to scroll the list to choose from standard Universes,
from 1 to 63999.
Complex or custom patches that include merging and/or
prioritization can only be set using Pathscape.
For Output Ports: If you have previously set a Custom Output Patch using Pathscape,
its name will be shown here as “ Custom: <patch name> ”. Note the custom patch
name may be truncated due to the character limit on the LCD.
NOTE that you cannot select or create Custom Patches using the front panel. If you
select a standard Universe, you will not be able to select the previously used Custom
Patch again from the front panel, it will need to be set using Pathscape.
DMX Speed:
Set the DMX Output speed. This has no effect on Input Ports.
