f. Projector Start Address Selection
All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the signals. This start
address is the channel number from which the device starts to “listen” to the DMX controller. Enter the correct
number and read it from the display located on the base of the VDP575MHS20FL.
You can use the same starting address for a whole group of devices or enter an individual one for every device.
When all devices have the same address, all the VDP575MHS20FLs 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 different addresses, each device will “listen” to a separate channel number. Changing the settings of one channel
will only affect the device in question.
In the case of the 20-channel VDP575MHS20FL, you will have to set the start address of the first VDP575MHS20FL
to 1, the second VDP575MHS20FL to 21 (1 + 20), the third to 41 (21 + 20) and so on.
