The DIP-switch must be set to the start channel, also known as the address, which is the
first of the six channels the controller uses to send instructions to the switch pack. Any
channel between 1 and 512 may be selected as long as the last channel (6) is within the con-
troller's range. The 2518 DMX Controller has 72 channels; the highest useful start channel
is 67.
Set the DIP-switch by switching ON one or more of the pins until their total value equals
the start channel. Each ON pin adds the value listed below; OFF pins add no value.
The setting can be found by subtracting pin values, starting from the highest value that is
less than or equal to the start channel, until the total of the values subtracted equals the
channel number. See the examples below.
