2. On each slave unit, press until

7.4 DMX Mode
This mode allows you to control the fixture by any universal DMX controller.
 All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the
signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to “listen” to
the DMX controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole group of devices or an
individual address can be set for every device.
 When all devices have the same address, all the units will “listen” to the control signal on one
particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices
simultaneously. If you set individual addresses, each device will “listen” to a separate channel
number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the device in question.
Example:
o In case of the 5-channel LX104/LX105, you will have to set the start address of the first unit
to 1 (CH1~5), the second unit to 6 (1 + 5) (CH6~10), the third to 11 (6 + 5) (CH11~15), and
so on.
o In case of the 12-channel LX104/LX105, you will have to set the start address of the first unit
to 1 (CH1~12), the second unit to 13 (1 + 12) (CH13~24), the third to 25 (13 + 12)
(CH25~36), and so on.
