wireless communication, please look at the green LED indicator light on the right-hand side of the display.
Note: When the Helix receives a wireless DMX signal, then this signal will also be present at its 5-pin DMX
output (05). However, the Helix has not been designed to send wireless signals. Therefore, always
connect the Helix devices to each other using a DMX cable.
