The control address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to
receive instructions from the controller. The total number of channels used depends
on the control mode.
Be sure to allow adequate channels when setting the control address. If control
channels for one fixture overlap control channels for another fixture, then one of the
fixtures will receive the wrong commands. To find the highest usable address
channel, subtract the number of channels required from the last controller channel
and add 1.
Two MiniMACs of the same type, and operating in the same control mode, may
share the same address if they are to respond identically. They will receive the same
commands and individual control will be impossible.

The following settings are available to modify fixture behavior.
Pan/tilt swap: Map pan to the tilt channel and tilt to the pan channel to provide
more intuitive control of fixtures mounted sideways.
Inverse pan: Flip pan movement to right-to-left instead of left-to-right.
Inverse tilt: Flip tilt movement to down-to-up instead of up-to-down.
Pan/tilt speed: Optimize motor control for speed or smoothness.
Profile/Wash: For service use only - initializes software for fixture type.
DMX lamp-off: Disable the lamp-off command unless channel 2 is set to color 12.
This helps prevent accidentally turning lamps off during a show.
DMX reset: Disable the reset command unless channel 2 is set to color 12. This
helps prevent accidentally resetting fixtures during a show.
Automatic lamp-on: Strike lamps automatically within 90 seconds of applying
power to the fixture. Timing is staggered to prevent excessive current draw.
Display: Turn off the display 2 minutes after the last key press or leave it on.
