Using Rdm - ETC ColorSource Linear Installation Manual

ETC Installation Guide
ColorSource Linear v1.7

Using RDM

RDM and Grouping modes
Linear 2 and Linear 4 fixtures in Cell mode contain 2 sub-devices (Linear 2) or
4 sub-devices (Linear 4). Use DMX_BLOCK_ADDRESS to set the DMX address
of the first cell, and the remaining cells will be numbered sequentially from
that starting value.
RDM also allows you to use nonsequential DMX addresses, if desired. The
fixture displays "---" for the DMX address to indicate nonsequential DMX
addressing. If you set up nonsequential DMX addresses and then change the
DMX address at the fixture, however, the fixture will return to sequential
DMX addressing.
Linear 2 and Linear 4 fixtures in Group mode do not use sub-devices.
