ZyLink Operation: To enable ZyLink control, push & quickly release the
Mode knob, then turn the knob to select the desired wireless channel
(1-10). A wireless symbol will appear in the display when ZyLink is
enabled. To disable ZyLink turn the knob until the display shows OFF.

About DMX

DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures
fixtures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as
all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. A DMX controller sends DMX
data instructions from the controller to the instrument. DMX is the control data
from the DMX controller sent via 5 pin DMX cable to a single fixture, multiple
lighting fixtures or instruments utilizing the DMX Data IN and DMX Data OUT
jacks located on all DMX enabled instruments.

To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures, try
to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are
connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX channel addressing. For
example; a fixture assigned to a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere
in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a
fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, it will “listen” for any DATA command
sent by the DMX controller to channel 1 and respond accordingly no matter
where it is located in the DMX chain.
