Universe: Each DMX universe holds 512
channels or addresses.
When using wired DMX 512 the Universe
number in the DS ADDR menu is read-
only and corresponds to the last byte of the
full DMX universe (512). This value must
be bound to the universe number in the
transmitter (for example, using a macro or
a script). This can be used to visually identify
the correct DMX daisy-chain.
When using wireless Art-Net the universe
can be changed from the PSU with a turn of
the knob. When the knob is pushed down on
the universe variable, the Net, Subnet and
Universe variables can all be modified.
Channel: This selector is for changing the
DMX address of a light module. The basic
principles are the same as with the DS mode
turned on, although with a few exceptions:
• When the DS mode is turned off, the
default channel for a module will be 1
instead of 0, and channels go from 1 to
512.
• Using the twist knob will result in the
movement of numbers in intervals de-
pendant on the amount of channels your
selected DMX profile uses.
• Using the left or right arrows when high-
lighted will change the DMX address by
single digit. This is good if there is a need
to dial in an exact DMX channel.
