How to get started
1.
Place / Rig the winch in something high with minimum 2-3 meter below.
2.
Put on counterweight on the winch, minimum 2.5 kg (5.5 lb).
3.
Set the DMX start address to 001, and the MODE to 2.
4.

Make sure that the 7 channels are patched from DMX channel 1 to 7. Pull all channels on to 0%
5.
Apply power to the winch.

6.
Pull channel 6 to 20% - the winch starts pulling the wire.
When the wire is at the hard TOP limit (pulled into the winch), stop the winch (pull channel 6 to 0%)
NOW the winch has found its TOP position and is ready to drive with position control.

Pull channel 1 (position) to 95%. Pull channel 3 (speed) to 20%
Now the winch start to move down, with 20% speed, to the 95% up-position.
