Fixture Addressing

The Obey™ 8 is programmed to control eight channels of DMX per fixture. Therefore, the fixtures you
wish to control with the corresponding <FIXTURES> on the unit must be spaced eight channels apart
(check the respective fixture's manual for how to enter the information into the fixture).

Failure to use these DMX assignments may cause a lack of control of the fixtures.

Physical Fader Assignment (optional setup)

Use this feature to combine or unify fixture control attributes for different fixtures. For example, if you
were controlling four fixtures, each with their own different channel configurations, you could combine
the channels to work with the same faders. Therefore, channels 1, 2, and 3 could control red, green,
and blue, respectively.

the surface of the controller as such.
You may assign multiple DMX channels to a
single fader.
You may select the <PAGE> button to select a
fader from a different page.
You may assign a fader to a channel from
