manuals for more information. In short, a DMX address is the first DMX channel of a fixture. In the
case of a DJScan250 (which uses 6 channels), assigning for example 1 as its DMX address,
reserves channels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 for the fixture. The next fixture must then be assigned to
DMX address 7 to prevent channel overlapping.
Adding a generic dimmer
Dimmers are somewhat special devices, since all they can usually do is to adjust the intensities
of their channels (which usually drive PAR cans and the like). If you wish to add such a device,
select the Generic dimmer fixture from the list and specify the number of channels you wish the
device to employ in the Channels box. Note that you cannot adjust the mode for dimmers and the
channel list stays empty all the time.
Back to the fixture manager
Click OK to close the dialog and add the selected fixture(s) to the workspace.
On the left side of the fixture manager you can now see the fixture(s) that you just added. On the
right side, you can see information on the currently selected fixture. You can edit the fixture's
name, address and universe by clicking the Configure button. You can also change the fixture
definition by using the configuration dialog.
