For operation via a light control unit with DMX512 protocol, simply connect
RA3000PROFILE to the controller. The projector has a DMX channel configuration that can be accessed
from the control panel. In order to control RA3000PROFILE with a light control unit, the DMX start address
must be set for the first DMX channel.
If, for example, address 33 is provided on the control unit to control the function of the first one
DMX channel, the start address 33 must be set on the RA3000PROFILE. The other panel functions will be
automatically assigned to the following addresses.
