General Overview
The DMX-55 is a universal intelligent lighting controller. It allows the control of 12 fixtures composed
of 16 channels each and up to 240 programmable scenes. Six chase banks can contain up to 240
steps composed of the saved scenes and in any order. Programs can be triggered by music, midi,
automatically or manually.
On the surface you will find various programming tools such as 8 universal channel sliders, a joystick
and LED display indicators for easier navigation of controls and menu functions. You can control the

of a programmable joystick. This joystick allows the user to assign individual pan and tilt channels for
every fixture. Integrated fog and strobe controller simplifies setup and eliminates multiple control
