function.
•
8-bit Enhanced
- provides additional channels for timing control.
•
16-bit Standard

. Press [Enter] to set mode.
See
for more information.
Note:
Which mode is used may also be determined by the profile available in the
DMX control console. For best control, response, smoothest movement and transi-
tions, the 16-bit Enhanced mode is recommended. The 8-bit modes are supported for
older style consoles with a limited number of DMX channels available, and if profiles
are not supported. The 16-bit mode is supported for DMX consoles that do not provide
access to the timing channels through either their architecture or their profiles. For
