Fixture setup
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before
operating the fixture.
This section explains the fixture settings and utilities that the
user has access to via the control panel. Settings are retained
when the fixture is powered off. A map of the control menu can
be found on page 26.
Using the control menus
To access the control menus, press the MENU button. Navigate the menu
structure using the ENTER, DOWN and UP buttons. Select any required
menu option using the ENTER button. To return to the previous level in the
menu structure without making a change, press the MENU button. To exit the
menus, press and hold the MENU button.
DMX settings
DMX address
The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used
to receive instructions from a DMX controller. Each DMX-controlled fixture
must have a DMX address set. If a fixture that requires 4 DMX channels has
its DMX address set to 1, for example, then it uses channels 1, 2, 3 and 4.
The next fixture can have its DMX address set to 5, the next to 9 and so on
until the 512 channels in one DMX universe are allocated.
For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own control
channels. Two fixtures of the same type and set to the same mode may share
the same address if identical behavior is desired.
To set the fixture’s DMX address:
1. Press MENU to enter the control menu.
2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select DMX ADDRESS and press
ENTER to confirm. The present address will blink on the display.
3. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the address assigned to the
fixture on the controller (1 to 512). Press ENTER to set it.
4. Press MENU to exit.
