DMX ADDRESS setting and channel overview
The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions
from the controller. For independent control, each Mini Roll Down must be assigned its own
control channels.
The DMX address is configured using the three DMX ADDRESS selectors on the Mini Roll Down.
The selected DMX address states from which channels, on the lighting desk, the Mini Roll
Down is controlled. The Mini Roll Down uses 6 DMX channels. The example below shows a DMX
start address 212 (200+10+2).
