8. DEVICE DMX START ADDRESS SELECTION
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so that the
correct fixture responds to the correct control signals. This digital starting address is the
channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent out
from the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the
correct address number on the display located on the base of the device.
You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or set different
addresses for each fixture individually.
If you set the same address on all devices, all the devices will start to“listen”to the same control
signal from the same channel number. In other words, changing the settings of one channel will
affect all the fixtures simultaneously.
If you set a different address, each unit will start to“listen”to the channel number you have set,
based on the quantity of control channels of the unit. That means changing the settings of one
channel will affect only the selected device.
In the case of the LED moving head, in 39 channel mode, you should set the starting address
of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 40 (39 + 1), the third unit to 79 (39 + 40), and so on.

For installations where the DMX cable has to run over a long
distance or is in an electrically noisy environment, such as in a
discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This
helps in preventing corruption of the digital control signal
caused by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is an XLR plug
with a 120 Ω resistor connected between pins 2 and 3, which is
then plugged into the output (female) XLR socket of the last
fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.
