General notes
Ensure that only one DMX device
•
in the chain is set as master (e.g.
the lighting desk). This fixture is
usually set to slave mode
• This fixture is shipped with the
DMX address set to 001.
• If the fixture is used as a master,
DMX transmission will only occur
when the DMX address is dis-
played (e.g. A001, A002, etc).
• The four digit display can be set to
fade out after 60 seconds, press
to resume. To alter this mode:
PERS > DISP.
Chase effects
This section describes each of the 31 internal chase
effects that are selectable either via the control menu
(PROG > C1/C2 > EFEC) or using DMX values sent
from an external source. To use the internal effects, set
the MODE option either to EF M (to control effects via
the menu) or MAX2 (to control effects externally via
DMX).

the current DMX address e.g. A001

Chase effects and master intensity channel layouts
The table below shows how the chase effects and master intensity controls are
mapped to DMX channels for each mode. Mode DMX does not use chase effects.
The first channel of the fixture occurs at the DMX address selected using ADDR
and successive channels for the fixture follow from there. MAX1, EF D and EX61
are legacy modes which do not provide the best performance. You are recom-
mended to use MAX2 for combined RGB colour mixing and chase effect control.

Note
When using DMX mode for colour mixing (no chase effects possible) and the
MINT option is enabled, ensure that the PERS > RES option is set to 3CH. This
will ensure that the master intensity channel occurs immediately after the red,
green and blue control channels, at channel 4.
