DMX Mode
Allows the unit to be controlled by any universal DMX controller.
1.) Depending on what channel mode you would like to use, you first need to
choose one of the four DMX channel mode configurations:
Nod1 - To choose 4 channel DMX mode
Nod2 - To choose 7 channel DMX mode
Nod3 - To choose 16 channel DMX mode
Nod4 - To choose 34 channel DMX mode
Use the <UP/DOWN> buttons to scroll to Nod - and push the <ENTER>
button. Then use the <UP/DOWN> buttons to scroll to your choice of 4/7/16
or 31 channel mode, then hit the <ENTER> button.
2.) Then depending on which DMX channel mode you entered, you can set the
DMX starting address. You’ll notice that the first letter in this setting changes
per mode:
C001 - C512 - To set the starting address of Mode 1 (4ch)
d001 - d512 - To set the starting address of Mode 2 (7ch)
E001 - E512 - To set the starting address of Mode 3 (16ch)
F001 - F512 - To set the starting address of Mode 4 (34ch)
Use the <UP/DOWN> buttons to scroll to C ---, d ---, E ---, or F --- and push
the <ENTER> button. Then use the <UP/DOWN> buttons to scroll to your
choice (1-512), then hit the <ENTER> button.
Master/Slave Modes:
Allows a single or Master/Slaved units to run factory installed programs at user
selectable speeds.
1. The first fixture in the DMX chain will serve as the master unit. To set other
fixtures in line to slave mode, make sure these fixtures have a starting DMX
address that is set to match that of the master unit.
For example, if your master fixture has the DMX starting address of C001, all
other fixtures linked in the DMX chain must match that DMX starting address of
C001 . These fixtures will now function exactly as the master does.
