DMX Control Mode 

The fixtures are individually addressed on a data-link and connected to the controller.  
The fixtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller. (When you select the DMX address and save it, 
the controller will display the saved DMX address the next time.)

 

 

DMX Addressing 

The control panel on the backside of the device allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is 
the first channel from which the Candela Pix will respond to the controller. Please note when you use the 
controller, the unit has up to 56 channels. When using multiple Candela Pixs, make sure you set the DMX 
addresses right. Therefore, the DMX address of the first Candela Pix should be 1(001); the DMX address of 
the second Candela Pix should be 1+56=57 (057); the DMX address of the third Candela Pix 100 should 
be 57+56=113 (113), etc. Please, be sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to 
control each Candela Pix correctly. If two or more Candela Pixs are addressed similarly, they will work 
similarly. 
 
Controlling: 
After having addressed all Candela Pixs, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller. 
Note:
 After switching on, the Candela Pix will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or 
not. If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the text “DMX In“ on the control panel will not appear. 
If not, the problem may be: 

 

The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the Candela Pix. 

 

The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is defective, or the signal wires are 
swapped in the input connector. 

 
Note: It is necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure 
proper transmission on the DMX data link. 
 

 

Display Off after 30 seconds

 

 

When no button is pressed for 30 seconds, the display will turn off. To light up the display, you have to 
press the MODESETUP or DOWN button. Once you have pressed the button, the display will light up.
