Fixture Addressing:

Dip switch setting: Each Dip Switch has an address based on binary code. Please observe table
below:
Dip No 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Value 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 n/a

Dip switch 10 is not used with DMX but used normally to select some functions on your fixture such
as Master/Slave/ Auto Run / Sound Active etc. Each fixture is different so please refer to your fixture
manual for more info.

If your fixture has a digital display, you simply work out what the start channel is of that fixture and
simply select the display to that number. For Example. Fixture 1 starts at channel 1, so your display
will be 001. If you are assigning it as fixture 2, then the start address on 2 is 17, so set your display
to 017 - Please see table on the next page for a better understanding of Start addresses.
