DMX Control Mode
The fixtures are individually addressed on a data-link and connected to the
controller.
The fixtures respond to the DMX signal from the controller. (When you select the DMX address and save it,
the controller will display the saved DMX address the next time.)
DMX Addressing
The control panel on the front side of the Compact Power Lightset allows you to assign the DMX fixture
address, which is the first channel from which the Compact Power Lightset will respond to the controller.
Please note when you use the controller, the unit has 15 channels.
When using multiple Compact Power Lightsets, make sure you set the DMX addresses right.
Therefore, the DMX address of the first Compact Power Lightset should be 1(A001); the DMX address of
the second Compact Power Lightset should be 1+15=16 (A016); the DMX address of the third Compact
Power Lightset should be 16+15=31 (A011), etc. Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping
channels in order to control each Compact Power Lightset correctly.
If two or more Compact Power Lightsets are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.
For address settings, please refer to the instructions under ”Addressing’ (menu )
Controlling:
After having addressed all Compact Power Lightset fixtures, you may now start operating these via your
lighting controller.
Note: After switching on, the Compact Power Lightset will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is
received or not. If there is no data received at the DMX-input, the “LED “ on the control panel will not
flash.
The problem may be:
- The XLR cable from the controller is not connected with the input of the Compact Power Lightset.
- The controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is detective, or the signal wires are
swapped in the input connector.
Note: It’s necessary to insert a XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last fixture in order to ensure
proper transmission on the DMX data link.
