The Pixel Drive 30 will automatically detect the presence of a DMX signal.
IF a DMX signal is present, the front panel LED display will blink.
In order to receive a DMX signal, the Pixel Drive 30 must be attached to a DMX controller by a 3-pin DMX
cable and the DMX controller must be turned on.
To mix RGB color using DMX, Channel 1 (Rainbow) must be off (0).
When programming your own DMX sequences, note that Channel 6 must be off (0) to avoid activating
Sound-active mode during playback.
The Octopod system can operate as a 48-, 24-, 12- or 6- channel DMX fixture.  Select DMX Mode 1, 2, 3 or
