Dmx Addressing - ADJ ELEMENT HEX User Manual

All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX controller, so the correct
fixture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the channel number from
which the fixture starts to "listen" to the digital control signal sent out from the DMX controller. The
assignment of this starting DMX address is achieved by setting the correct DMX address on the digital
control display on the fixture.
You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or set different addresses
for each individual fixture. Setting all fixtures to the same DMX address will cause all fixtures to
react in the same way, in other words, changing the settings of one channel will affect all the fixtures
simultaneously.
If you set each fixture to a different DMX address, each unit will start to "listen" to the channel number
you have set, based on the quantity of DMX channels of each fixture. That means changing the settings
of one channel will only affect the selected fixture.
In the case of the Element Hex, when in 6 channel mode you should set the starting DMX address of
the first unit to 1, the second unit to 7 (6 + 1), the third unit to 13 (7 + 6), and so on.
