Connecting the DMX data link
To connect the fixture to data:
1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the first fixture’s male
XLR DMX input connector.
2. Connect the first fixture’s DMX output to the DMX input of the next fixture
and continue connecting fixtures output to input. Terminate the last fixture
on the link with a DMX termination plug.
Fixture setup
This section explains the fixture characteristics that can be set that determine
how it can be controlled and will behave. These settings are made using the
menus available from the control panel, and are retained, even when the
fixture is powered off.
Only the most commonly used menu options for fixture setup are described in
this section. A complete map of the control menu structure and brief
explanations of their purposes can be found in ’Control menus’ on page 35.

DMX function settings
DMX function settings include the DMX address and a DMX value viewer.
DMX addressing
The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to
receive instructions from a DMX controller. The fixture can be controlled using
signals sent by a DMX controller over 16 channels. Each DMX controlled
fixture must have a DMX address set. For example, if a fixture has a DMX
address of 10, then it uses channels 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20,
21, 22, 23, 24 and 25. The following fixture in the DMX chain can then be set
to a DMX address of 26.
