5.3.3 Setting the DMX start address
For separate control of all DMX units connected to
the light controller, each unit must have its own start
address. If the first DMX channel of the spotlight
is to be controlled by the light controller via DMX
address 17, for example, set the start address on the
spotlight to 17. All other DMX channels of the spot-
light will be automatically assigned to the following
addresses. The following table is an example with
the start address 17:
