Table 5: Number of DMX channels required per Exterior PixLine fixture
Different modes can be mixed freely in an installation. For example, some Exterior PixLine fixtures can be
set to RGB mode, some set to Basic mode and others to Pixel mode. All you need to do is set up fixtures,
DMX addresses and DMX channel allocation correctly.
DMX addresses
To prepare an installation for DMX control, you set it up using an RDM-compliant DMX controller so that
fixtures or pixels receive instructions from the controller on their own DMX channels. The DMX address
(also known as the control address or start channel) is the first of these channels. An Exterior PixLine fixture
or pixel uses more than one channel, so it uses the DMX address channel and the channels immediately
above it. For example, one Exterior PixLine fixture set to RGB mode and set to DMX address 1 will use DMX
channels 1 - 3. Channel 4 will be available for use as a DMX address for the next device.
