5. Setting up the control protocol
The impression X5 can be controlled via:
● USITT512 DMX over a standard DMX cable link using the fixture’s 5-pin XLR
connectors,
● wireless CRMX if a CRMX module is installed in the fixture, or
● GLP’s wireless iQ.Mesh technology (in preparation).
This section explains how to configure the fixture to use one of these control data
protocols.
Note
The Protocol Setup settings are not affected if you apply a Fixture Settings → Load User
Settings → Setting Defaults command in the fixture’s control panel, but they are
returned to factory defaults if you apply a Load Factory Defaults command in the main
menu.
DMX
The fixture is set up for control via a standard DMX cable link by default.
If the control data protocol has been changed and you want to return to DMX control
over a standard DMX cable link, open the menus in the fixture’s control panel and
make the following adjustments:
1. In the main menu, open DMX Address and give the fixture a suitable DMX address.
2. In the Protocol Setup → Data In menu, set the control protocol to DMX.
