Setting The Dmx Address; Control Panel Functions; Password Menu Lockout - Chauvet COLORdash Par User Manual

Setting the DMX address

Each fixture requires a "start address" from 1 to 512. A fixture requiring one or more channels for
control begins to read the data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture
that occupies or uses 7 channels of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would
read data from channels: 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105 and 106. Choose start addresses so that the
channels used do not overlap and note the start address selected for future reference. The
COLORado™ Panel uses up to 9 channels of DMX. If this is your first time using DMX, we
recommend reading the DMX Primer in the Appendix Section.

Control Panel Functions

All fixture functions and settings are accessible via the built-in control panel interface.
