must be on the same universe.
The fixtures are lettered A-D with the selected fixture shown on both the Main menu and the Config menu:
The fixture being controlled by the arm can be changed in three different ways:

Using the bottom four Preset buttons.
+ Using the DMX control channel, values 171-174 selecting A-D.

Step 1. At Main menu, press CONFIG panel.
Step 2. At Config menu, press SWITCHER panel.
Step 3. At Switcher menu, select fixture to be controlled.
