5.4 DMX Connection

Connect a DMX cable from your DMX controller to the DMX IN port of the first fixture. For multiple fixtures, daisy-chain them by connecting the DMX OUT of the first fixture to the DMX IN of the next, and so on. Terminate the last fixture in the chain with a DMX terminator.

6. Operation

6.1 Control Panel

The control panel on the base of the fixture allows for addressing, mode selection, and basic parameter adjustments. Refer to the specific DMX channel chart for detailed control via a DMX controller.

6.2 DMX Control

Set the DMX address for each fixture using the control panel. Ensure each fixture has a unique starting address to avoid conflicts. Consult the DMX channel chart (typically provided separately or on the manufacturer's website) for a complete list of functions controllable via DMX.

6.3 Light Effects

Utilize the color wheel, pattern gobos, and prism effects to create dynamic lighting displays. The atomization function can soften the beam for atmospheric effects. Adjust the beam angle for narrow, sharp beams or wider washes.
