DMX mode
To control PAR cans via DMX, connect a DMX controller to the DMX IN socket of the unit via a
balanced XLR lead. Extra fixtures can be controlled by the same DMX controller by connecting
the DMX OUT of the first to the DMX IN of the second via another XLR lead and so on.
The unit can be used as a 3-channel fixture to give basic RGB (red, green, blue) control or as
7-channel which will give the controller access to built-in functions such as auto programs and
sound activation.
