Source Four LED Profile v1.6.0 User Manual

DMX Profile

Addressing

Addresses must be set between 1 and 510.

Each Source Four LED Profile fixture must be considered a separate DMX device for

the purpose of DMX line-loading calculations.

DMX line-loading practice dictates that no more than 32 devices can be daisy-chained

together. Consequently, no combination of Source Four LED Profile fixtures totaling more

than 32 DMX devices should be configured in one DMX line. For runs of fixtures totaling

more than 32 DMX devices, split the DMX runs by using a DMX splitter.

Profiles

Source Four LED Profile fixtures occupy 1 to 15 DMX channels depending on the profile

and which features are turned on. The tables below describe the order and function of each

channel.

Lustr+, Series 2 Lustr, and Studio HD Profile

Direct Control

Direct Control uses one DMX channel per individual color within the LED array for a total of

seven color channels, arranged according to the

Color Mixes

table. Each controls the

intensity of the color from 0 to 100%. An additional, 8th DMX channel is used as a master

intensity fader for controlling the brightness of the overall fixture. Channel 9 is for strobe

when enabled.

N o t e :

Depending on the selected fixture profile and activated features, a fixture with a

starting address higher than 499 may not have control of all parameters, even though

the highest address shown on the user interface is 512.
Addressing is not required for standalone operation.
