Setting the DMX Start Channel

Each standard configuration x.Spot fixture requires a block of 38
consecutive channels on a 512-Channel DMX link.
Customized x.Spot fixtures may have modules with a different number of
channels required. Use that range in calculating the Start channels on
the link for those fixtures.
Up to thirteen 38-channel standard x.Spot fixtures can be assigned to a
single 512-Channel DMX link.
For more information on Start Channels, see "Determining DMX Start
Channel Assignment" on page 3-6.
To Set the Start Channel on an x.Spot Fixture:
1. Access the fixture's menu system via the dot matrix display on the fixture's front
panel. For a detailed description of the menu system, see Chapter 3.
