c. DMX Mode
This mode allows you to control the fixture by any universal DMX controller.
•
All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the signals.
This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to “listen” to the DMX
controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole group of devices or an individual address can
be set for every device.
•
When all devices have the same address, all the units will “listen” to the control signal on one particular
channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices simultaneously. If you
set individual addresses, each device will “listen” to a separate channel number. Changing the settings of
one channel will only affect the device in question.
•
In case of the 12-channel VDPL501MHS10, you will have to set the start address of the first unit to 1
(CH1~12), the second unit to 13 (1 + 12) (CH13~24), the third to 25 (13 + 12) (CH25~36), and so on.
•
Press <MODE> until <Addr> is displayed.
•
Use <UP> or <DOWN> to set the DMX starting address (A001~A512). Press <Enter> to confirm.
