Setting the DMX Start Address
Once you have selected the required fixture type (eg MARTIN MAC 500 Mode 4), you then
have the option of selecting the DMX start address for the fixture(s):
The desk has 4 DMX universes available for patching, so the first thing you need to do is
to select the DMX universe (1 to 4) you wish to work on. Next enter the required start
address using the MFKs or directly into the field on the popup window on the monitor.
To patch to the next available address in the selected universe use the [Next Address]
button. Once you have set the DMX address required, press the ENTER button to confirm.
Assigning Fixture Type to MFKs
Having selected the required fixture type specified a DMX start address, you can now
assign your fixtures to the Fixture MFKs. There are 10 pages of 20 MFKs available, giving
a total of 200 fixtures patchable.
First use the PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN keys to select the required page of MFKs, then
press an MFK to assign the fixture type to that key. The LED in the MFK is lit to indicate
that the key is now assigned. The fixture type and DMX address is displayed in the LCD
above the MFK. Repeat this process for each fixture to be assigned.
Press the same MFK again to remove the fixture type assigned to that key.
When you have assigned the fixture type to the required fixture selection key(s), press
ENTER to return to the Patch options.
Notes – Assigning Fixture Types to MFKs
Several MFKs may be assigned at the same time by holding down the first MFK in the
required range and then pressing the last MFK in the range, eg hold down MFK 1 and
press MFK 10 – the selected fixture type is assigned to MFKs 1-10 inclusive.
