Starting Address
When selecting a starting DMX address, always consider the number of DMX channels
the selected DMX mode uses. If you choose a starting address that is too high, you
could restrict the access to some of the product’s channels.
The SlimPAR™ Tri IRC series uses up to 7 DMX channels in its 7-channel DMX mode,
which defines the highest configurable address to
506
