ADDRESS menu.
Press ENT.
4. The screen shows:
GENERAL
DMX MODE [SINGLE]
5. Use Ï or Ð to select either SINGLE (for
different individual DMX addresses) or
JOINED (if the dimmers are numbered
sequentially from the start address).
6. Press ENT (to record the changes) or

6.5.2 To set up DMX addresses
1. First set the DMX scheme as described
above (either individual or start
address).
2. Press DMX, and the screen displays:
DMX ADDRESS
ENTER
3. Press ENT, and the screen displays:
DMX: [001] 002
CHAN.: 1 2
4. If SINGLE has been selected, two
channels are displayed at a time, with
their relevant DMX address. Use Ï and
Ð
to select the address needed for the
first dimmer channel and move to other
channels by pressing Í and Î and
continue adjusting each DMX address
by pressing Ï and Ð as before.
5. If JOINED has been selected, only one
DMX number line is entered which is the
number for dimmer 1. The remaining
dimmers are automatically addressed in
sequential order.
6. Press ENT to store the settings and to
return to the previous menu.
Note: DMX address 000 deselects the channel
from operation. Valid DMX numbers are
between 001 - 512. If higher dimmer
numbers are used by the control desk,
the number has to be rationalised to a
base of 512 for the dimmer address.

You can now set each channel to a
different DMX universe. For most
applications it is advisable to use only
one universe for each dimmer pack.
Alternatively, you could use one
universe for DMX-A (internal dimmers
and DMX-A output) and one for DMX-B
(DMX-B output).
4. Press ENT to store the settings and to
return to the previous menu.
6.5.4 To set up a DMX backup condition
The PowerModule is equipped with a choice of

options available:
RESET: sets all dimmers to zero after 5
seconds
HOLD: maintains the last valid DMX
levels until DMX is restored
BACKUP: selects dimmer levels
programmed with the
PRESETS memory function
6. Press ENT to leave the menu and
record the changes or EXIT (to leave
the previous settings unchanged).
