DMX SETUP

DMX ADDRESSING

All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when operating with a DMX controller, in order to

ensure that the correct fixture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is

the channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control signal sent out from

the DMX controller. This starting DMX address is assigned by setting the correct DMX address on

the digital control display on the fixture.

You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or set different addresses

for each individual fixture. Setting all fixtures to the same DMX address will cause all fixtures to react

in the same way. In this case, please note that changing the settings of one channel will affect all the

fixtures simultaneously.

If you set each fixture to a different DMX address, each unit will start to “listen” to the channel num-

ber you have set, based on the quantity of DMX channels of each fixture. That means changing the

settings of one channel will only affect the selected fixture.

As an example, since this device has 9 DMX channels, you should set the starting DMX address of

the first unit to 1, the second unit to 10 (1 + 9), the third unit to 19 (1+ 9 + 9), and so on. (See the

chart below for more details.)
