For channels - The first channel fixture is patched to the first DMX start address, the second
fixture to the next DMX address., etc.
For spots - The first spot is patched to the DMX start address. Dlite automatically patches the
next spot to the next available DMX address. The interval depends how many DMX channels
are used by the type of spot.
