Set the product in DMX mode to control with a DMX controller.
1. Connect the product to a suitable power outlet.
2. Turn the product on.
3. Connect a DMX cable from the DMX output of the DMX controller to the DMX input
socket on the product.
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 access to some of the product's channels.
The Freedom™ RGBA series uses up to 5 DMX channels in its 5-CH DMX mode, which
defines the highest configurable address to 508.
