In the implementation chart below, channel S is the DMX Start Channel, range  

1 to 512.  The level of channel S and the next three channels set RC4 Custom

 parameters.  

Parameters are described in detail on pages 14 - 17. 

 

Before pressing a Set button, the start (S) channel must be at the correct 

level for the pixel type being used.  If the level of any subsequent parameter 

channel is at zero, the previous setting for that parameter is retained.  This 

makes it easy to change only the start channel and pixel type.

 channel levels only matter at the moment a Set button is 

pressed.  

Example:

DMX Start Channel 74 (first non-zero ch is 74)

WS2812 Pixel Type (start ch at level 77, which is 30%) 

60-pixel Keyframe Length (first ch above Start, ch 75, set to level of 60)

 

Pixels controlled in Groups of 3 (ch76 set to level of 3)

Increment/Decrement Replication Method (ch 77 at 55,  which is 22%)
