DMX Control: Application Example

OHM is fully controllable from the 5-pin DMX IN port on the MMI on the side of the fixture. The 'DMX Thru' jack also 
allows you to daisy-chain fixtures. Keep in mind the following points regarding DMX control:

For OHM 

'Standard'

 DMX Control:

  +

Each OHM to be controlled via DMX must have the address set accordingly.

  +

For example, the first fixture to be controlled could be set to DMX address 001.

  +

OHM (under 'Standard') DMX Control protocol uses 2 channels per fixture; so the subsequent fixtures should be 
offset by 2 as shown in the example figure below:

For OHM 

'Advanced'

 DMX Control:

  +

Each OHM to be controlled via DMX must have the address set accordingly.

  +

For example, the first fixture to be controlled could be set to DMX address 001.

  +

OHM (under 'Advanced) DMX Control protocol uses 10 channels per fixture; so the subsequent fixtures should be 
offset by 10 as shown in the example figure below:
