About DMX
The SP-6 SixPack is controlled using signals sent by a DMX controller on a number of channels (6, 7, 24, 28 or 48
depending on the DMX mode that has been set). The first channel used to receive data from a DMX control device
is known as the DMX address. Each SP-6 Six Pack must have a DMX address set. For example, if a SP-6 SixPack
has a DMX address of 10 and it is in 7-channel DMX mode, then it uses channels 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16. The
following fixture in the DMX chain could then be set to a DMX address of 17. If two or more DMX devices of the
same type have the same DMX address, then they will mimic each other’s behavior. Incorrect settings will result in
unpredictable responses to the lighting controller.
Setting the DMX address
After powering the SP-6 SixPack on, the display shows the currently selected DMX address and other information.
A
- Operational mode
B
- DMX address
C
- Data indicator
D
- Data protocol
To change the address setting, press the left arrow to increase the
address, or the right arrow to decrease the setting. When the desired
address is displayed, press Enter to save the setting. For your
convenience, the suggested DMX address of the next fixture is displayed
to the right. Note that channel spacing is determined by the DMX mode.
