DMX ADDRESS CALCULATION
In DMX mode, the DIP switch from # 1 to # 9 should be set to record a DMX address. The address ranges from 1-511. Each dipswitch
represents a binary value. Please refer to table below.

＃5
Each unit has 12 channels. So each product may be receiving a 12-channel DMX address at least. If you assign an address on 16
channels, the DMX address is: 16*N +1, N=0, 1, 2, 3....
One loop address=1, two loop address=17, three loop address=33, four loop address=49
