DMX ADDRESS setting
The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive
instructions from the controller. For independent control, each winch must be assigned
its own control channels.
The DMX address is configured using the three DMX ADDRESS selectors on the winch.
The selected DMX address states from which channels, on the lighting desk, the winch
is controlled. The DMX address can be selected from 1 – 505. The Winch 10 uses 7 DMX
channels.

channel Function
Description
1
Position rough
This channel controls the position of the winch, with the speed (DMX channel 3).
This rough position works together with the fine position (DMX channel 2).
The rough position and the fine position are multiplied in to a 16 bit channel.
The rough position is the MSB.
2
Position fine
This channel controls the position of the winch, with the speed set on DMX
channel 3.
This fine position works together with the rough position (DMX channel 1).
The fine position and the rough position are multiplied in to a 16 bit channel.
The fine position is the LSB.
3
Speed
This channel controls the speed and defines the maximum speed of the winch.
The winch runs with the set max speed, but slows down as closing in on the
wanted position.
This channel also works as a main brake; the motor does not run unless the
channel is set above 0%.
The speed-channel can also be used to make soft and slow movements or fast
and sudden movements.
