The 4BAR™ Flex has a single 15-channel personality.

the highest configurable address to 498.
When selecting a starting DMX address, always consider the number of DMX channels
the selected DMX mode uses. If you choose a starting address that is too high, you could
restrict the access to some of the product's channels.
