The fixtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller. (When you select the DMX address and save it,
the controller will display the saved DMX address the next time.)

DMX Addressing

The control panel on the front side of the Inferno allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is the
first channel from which the Inferno will respond to the controller.
Please note when you use the controller, the unit has 1 channel.
When using multiple Inferno's, make sure you set the DMX addresses right.
Therefore, the DMX address of the first Inferno should be 1 (A001); the DMX address of the second Inferno
should be 1+1=2 (A002); the DMX address of the third Inferno should be 2+1=3 (A003), etc. Please, be
sure that you don't have any overlapping channels in order to control each Inferno correctly.
If two or more Inferno's are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.
For address settings, please refer to the instructions under "Addressing' (menu
Controlling:
After having addressed all Inferno fixtures, you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.
Note: After switching on, the Inferno will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.
there is
no data received at the DMX-input, the "LED " on the control panel will not flash.
The problem may be:
- The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the Inferno.
- The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is detective, or the signal wires are
swapped in the input connector.
Note: It's necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure
proper transmission on the DMX data link.
For synchronous operation of multiple fixtures the fixtures must all be connected on a data-link and be
given the same DMX address.
Note: Disconnect the fixtures from the DMX controller before master/slave operating, otherwise data
collisions can occur and the fixtures will not work properly!
