PERSONALITY - Status Settings - Address Via DMX
When enabled, allows the user to define the desired DMX address via an external controller.
NOTE: This explanation below assumes the fixture DMX address is set to 001. If fixture
DMX address is not at 001, you must adjust the channel numbers accordingly in order for
this feature to work. For example: if your fixture address is 010, then Channel 1 becomes
Channel 10, Channel 2 becomes Channel 11, and Channel 3 becomes Channel 12.
1. Connect the fixture to the external controller and power ON.
2. Set the DMX value of Channel 1 on the controller to (7).
3. Set the DMX value of Channel 2 on the controller to (7) or (8). When set to (7), the DMX
address can be set between (1) and (255). When set to (8), the DMX address can be set
between (256) and (511).
4. Using Channel 3 on the controller set the desired DMX address of the fixture. For example:
If the desired DMX address is 57, set Channel 1 to a value of (7), set Channel 2 to a value
of (7), and then set Channel 3 to a value of (57).
5. After setting Channel 3 to the desired DMX address value, wait for approximately 20
seconds (some fixtures may require a longer time) for the fixture to complete the address
reset function.
PERSONALITY – Service Setting - Password (050)
The Service Password MUST be entered in order to access the following menus: RDM PID, Eth-
ernet IP, Ethernet IP Mask, and Clear Err. Info.
PERSONALITY – Service Setting - RDM PID
Select various submenus via RDM. RDM stands for "Remote Device Management", which pro-
vides the ability to control the device remotely while connected to a DMX-bus. ANSI E1.20-
2006 by ESTA specifies the RDM standard as an extension of the DMX512 protocol. Manual
settings, such as adjusting the DMX starting address, are no longer needed. This is especially
useful when the device is installed in a remote area.
RDM ready and conventional DMX devices can be operated in one DMX line. The RDM protocol
sends its own packages in the DMX512 data feed and does not influence conventional devices.
If DMX splitters are used and RDM control is to be used, these splitters must support RDM.
The number and type of RDM parameters depend on the RDM controller being used.
PERSONALITY - Display Setting – Key Lock
When ON, Control Panel buttons lock automatically after exiting main menu for 15 seconds.
To unlock, keep MODE/ESC button pressed for 3 seconds.
PERSONALITY - Select Signal – Art-Net on IP2/IP10

range address or Art-Net on IP10 for a unique 010 IP range address.
