2. Set first light at
“
NAST
”
and rest of fixtures on SL1 Mode. It means first fixture will
be the master fixture which send same operating command to other fixtures of
the network(we call those other fixture on Slave mode or Sl1 or Sl2)
3. After done this setting of No 2, now all fixtures are connected and ready to go or
ready to get command of the first fixture or master fixture. Now you can set
different operating modes, example: sound active, static color, auto or fade. Once
you set the modes at first master unit other fixtures will start to project same the
effect as master unit did.
Master and salve connection setting by using the DMX controller
Connect the DMX controller and Fixture by using the DMX cable. Link other units with first
fixture and rest of unit, set all fixtures at Sl1 or Sl2 mode. Once you set the fixture it will
appear “A001” or “STBY” it means now fixture ready to go with DMX controller.
DMX Control:
Operating through a DMX controller gives the user the freedom to create their own
programs tailored to their own individual needs. Follow the directions below to set your
DMX Mode and address.
Before connecting to DMX controller, your fixture has different DMX channel modes,
please select your desired mode by pressing the DMX Mode button, then using the “up” or
“down” buttons to scroll through the DMX Channel Modes. Set the mode Sl1 or Sl2 before
you address the fixture.
How to group fixtures/ project different colors in different fixtures by using same
DMX controller/how to set DMX address so user can control the fixture and
project different color at same time by same DMX controller?
1. First make sure how many groups you are going to create which you are planning to control
by 1 DMX controller. In 1 group you can link minimum 1 to maximum 33 fixtures.
2. Link all fixtures with each other by Cable or link each group in DMX splitter. DMX splitter is a
device which helps to split the DMX signals to different group, DMX splitter will be useful
and needed if you are going to control over 33 fixtures at once. In market you can find 8
channels, 16 channels and 32 channel DMX splitter.
3. Once you made the link or network, Now you can put address value in “Addr” or “A001”.
Remember always that you need to put gap between 1
st
group and second group or third
group or in each group depends on the DMX channel. On Hex Lion par 18 it has 7/12 DMX
channel, let’s say user choose 12 DMX channel and want to make the 4 group each group it
has 10 fixtures. Set first 10 pcs fixtures to A001, set second group’s all 10pcs fixtures at
A013, set third group all fixtures at A026 and set all fixtures of the group 4 in A039. It
means that DMX controller feeder 1- 12 it will control fist group, 13-25DMX controller
feeder it will control group 2, 26-38DMX controller feeder will control the group 3 and 39-51
DMX controller feeder it will control the group 4. We put here gap of the 12 because we set
the light at 12DMX channel mode. hereA001(01), A013(13), A026 (026) and A039(39)
those in bracket (01),(13), (26) and (39) those it will be referred as DMX channel number 1
of each group also DMX controller’s feeder number. Use the feeder of the DMX controller to
control the fixtures separately.
