ProFan Operating Manual

15

DMX Mode

When the recessed switch on the Back Pack is switched to "DMX",
the display will indicate that the unit is in DMX Mode and will
display the current address of the ProFan. If no incoming DMX
signal is detected, the display will then read "No DMX Found".

To change the address of the unit, press and hold the Full Speed
button while adjusting the fader. With the fader moved all the way
up, the address will change to 512. With the fader moved all the
way down, the address will change to 1. Anywhere in between will
change the address proportionally between those values. To store
the new address, simply release the button.
