5.3.3 Setting the DMX start address
For separate control of all DMX units connected to
the light controller, each unit must have its own start
address . If the first DMX channel of the spotlight
is to be controlled by the light controller via DMX
address 17, for example, set the start address on the
spotlight to 17 . All other DMX channels of the spot-
light will be automatically assigned to the following
addresses . The following table is an example with
the start address 17:
