DMX Personality
and Starting
Address
When selecting a DMX starting address, always consider the number of DMX channels used by
the fixture. If you choose a starting address that is too high, you could restrict the access to
some of the product’s channels.
The Swarm 4 FX uses up to 12 DMX channels in the 12-channel mode, 12CH , which means the
highest recommended DMX address for that personality is 501 .
The Swarm 4 FX uses 2 DMX channels in the 2-channel mode, 02CH , which means the highest
recommended DMX address for that personality is 511 .
