Set the product in DMX mode to control with a DMX controller.
1. Connect the product to a suitable power outlet.
2. Turn the product on.
3. Connect a DMX cable from the DMX output of the DMX controller to the DMX input
socket on the product.
When selecting a starting DMX address, always consider the number of DMX channels
the selected DMX mode uses. If you choose a starting address that is too high, you could
restrict the access to some of the product's channels.
The Freedom™ series uses up to four (4) DMX channels in 4-channel DMX mode, which
defines the highest configurable address to 509.
If you are not familiar with the DMX protocol, download the DMX Primer from
www.chauvetlighting.com.
