PROLIGHTS - EclFresnel TW / PTW12
DMX ADDRESSING
In order to start controlling the product via DMX, the rst step is to select a DMX address, also known
as the start channel, this is the rst channel used to receive instructions from a DMX controller. If you
wish to control the product individually, it is necessary to assign a different starting address channel to
each xture.
The number of channels occupied from the product depends on the DMX mode selected, so always
verify the DMX Mode in the MENU before start addressing.
If you assign two xtures the same address, they will be executing the same behaviour. Selecting the
same address to multiple xtures can be useful for diagnostic purposes and symmetrical control.
DMX addressing is limited to make it impossible to set the DMX address so high that you are left with-
out enough control channels for the product.
To set the xture’s DMX address:
1. Press MENU to open the main menu.
2. Reach the addressing menu, then select the DMX ADDRESS settings.
3. Select the address from 1 to 512 using the navigation arrows/buttons and conrm by pressing
ENTER.
4. Press Menu to exit and return to the Home screen.
CONSTRUCTION OF THE DMX TERMINATION
The termination is prepared by soldering a 120Ω 1/4 W resistor between pins 2 and 3 of the male XLR
connector, as shown in gure.
