To chase one lamp through multiple fixtures:
1) Set each ballast with its own address: 001, 006, 011, 016 and so on.
2) Program address 005, 010, 015, etc. for 2ft operation.
3) Program lamp sequence to chase from 001 through 004, 006-009,
011-014 and so on.
To chase same lamp position simultaneously through multiple fixtures:
1) Set each ballast address to 001 (or a common address).
2) Program address 005, 010, 015, etc. for 2ft operation.
3) Program lamps to chase from address 001-004.
Note: Each ballast is automatically “terminated” for proper DMX
signals.
Auto Terminate Feature
Select/DMX 4Bank ballasts (455 Series)
have an “
AUTO TERMINATE” feature.
The last ballast that does not have an
XLR cable attached to the DMX “Out” port
will automatically terminate.
Any theatrical lighting board with DMX 512
protocol can be used to individually turn on/off
lamps in a fixture.
Select/DMX 4Bank ballasts can be jumpered
using the IN and OUT ports. As many as 100
ballasts can be jumpered on one chain as
long as the DMX cable run remains under
1000 feet or 40 x 25ft DMX cables.
Note: When operating ballasts at great distances from the dimmer board,
it is recommended to use Opto-Isolators to provide DMX signal amplification.
