STARTING DMX CHANNEL FOR MICROPLEX BY 16 INCR. DN:64
Microplex channel 1 is equal to starting DMX channel. Address switch 1 - 6 sets starting DMX channel in
increments of 16. See chart at the end of this manual.
Microplex output is sent as either 64 or 128 channels, depending on the setting of switch A8.
*DMX should only be terminated internally if IF501 will be always last unit at end of DMX line. A better way
to terminate is to connect 120ohm resistor to a female DMX cable end (pins 2-3) and plug it into the pass-through
of the last unit on the DMX line.
