The figure above shows a simple DMX layout which has used three units at each
DMX address. The three units have different ID addresses which allows the user to
collectively control the whole group of units at that DMX address by setting Channel
10 to 0, or to control each unit independently by first selecting the DMX address and
then by using Channel 10 to locate the target ID address. (Note that when using ID
addresses it is also possible to activate ADAS which allows for even more option with
DMX addressing and control.
Set ID addresses as previously explained in ascending numerical order.
Set {ADAS ON/OFF} to ON.
{MENU} {Settings} {ADAS ON/OFF}
