DMX Protocol
The City Painter 150 can be operated with a controller in
control mode
or without the controller in
stand-
alone mode.
Control Mode
DMX 512 Mode
When you want to use DMX mode set the “2P” dip switch 1 to “OFF” and 2 to “OFF”, as below:
DMX Addressing
The control panel on the front side of the base allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is the
first channel from which the City Painter will respond to the controller.
Please note when you use the controller, the unit has
6
channels.
When using multiple City Painters, make sure you set the DMX addresses right.
Therefore, the DMX address of the first City Painter should be
1(001)
; the DMX address of the second City
Painter should be
1+6=7 (007
); the DMX address of the third City Painter should be
7+6=13(013)
, the DMX
address of the fourth City Painter should be
13+6=19(019)
, etc.

Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each City Painter correctly.
If two or more City Painters are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.
For address settings, please refer to the instructions under ”DMX 512 Mode”.
Controlling:
After having addressed all City Painter fixtures, you may now start operating these via your lighting
controller.
Note:
After switching on, and switching both “2P” Dip switches to OFF, the City Painter will work with DMX
512 data.
If the device doesn’t work with DMX, the problem may be:
- The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the City Painter.
- The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is detective, or the signal wires are
swapped in the input connector.
Note:
It’s necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure
proper transmission on the DMX data link.
