DMX Operation

DMX Addressing

Push the tabs above or below the number window to set

the address. (Valid addresses range from 001 to 512.)

The yellow light above the address block will illuminate

if a DMX signal is present.

Each 4Bank DMX ballast operates on 5 addresses.

This is useful in achieving light effects like flickering,

chasing or creating light patterns.

After the DMX address is entered, the ballast automatically

assigns the first 4 addresses to control lamps 1-4 and the

5th address controls the

4ft/2ft setting.

The

4ft/2ft setting is defaulted to 4ft.

To activate the

2ft lamp setting on address 5, set dimmer

slider to full. Setting the dimmer value under 49% or

not programming address 5 will restore the

4ft setting.

Note: The 4ft/2ft select setting controls all 4 lamps equally.

Individual settings per lamp are not possible.

IMPORTANT!
The dimmer board/

light console should

have its channel

set to LINEAR light

output response.

(LINEAR response

is the default setting

on most dimmer

boards.)

For example: If the 4Bank DMX base address is set at 001 for Ballast 1, and Ballast 2

is set at 006, the configuration below will provide 8 lamps individually addressable through

DMX 512.
