5.3.2 Setting the start address and
the number of DMX channels
For separate control of all DMX units connected
to the light controller, each unit requires a start
address of its own . Example: If the first DMX
channel of the LED-162RGBW is to be controlled
by DMX address 6, set the start address on the
LED-162RGBW to 6 . The other DMX channels
of the LED-162RGBW will then be automatically
assigned to the subsequent addresses . Examples
with different start addresses:
