Address selection
A control address must be set using the DIP-switch on the rear panel. The control
address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive
instructions from the controller.
Each converter must be assigned its own address and non-overlapping control
channels for individual control. The 516-II DMX to 0-10 V Converter uses 2 or 16
DMX channels, depending on mode, or 1 Martin channel.
1 Disconnect the converter from AC power.
2 Select an address for the converter on your controller. The highest allowable
address is 497 in DMX mode 1, 511 in DMX mode 2, and 32 in Martin mode.
3 Look up the DIP-switch setting for the address on page 8.
4 Set pins 1 through 10 to the ON (1) or OFF (0) position as listed in the table.
