1. Make sure the product is plugged into a power source.

DMX Starting
Address
When selecting a starting DMX address, always consider the number of DMX channels
needed for the selected DMX personality. Choosing a starting address that is too high can
restrict access to some of the product’s channels.

either 7 or 14 channels, depending on the
personality. The highest configurable DMX address in 7-channel mode is 506
. The
highest configurable DMX address in 14-channel mode is 499.

6. Press <ENTER> to select the DMX starting address.
DMX
Personalities
The Intimidator™ Wash Zoom 250 IRC has 2 DMX personalities: a 7-channel personality
and a 14-channel personality.
To set the DMX personality, do the following:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until 4 icons show on the display.
2. Use <UP> and <DOWN> to highlight the Run Mode icon.
3. Press <ENTER>. The Run Mode options will show on the display.
4. Use <UP> and <DOWN> to highlight DMX.

After the DMX starting address and personality have been set, there will be a delay
of 30 seconds before the display automatically returns
to showing the current DMX
address and the DMX personality.
If the display goes blank after 30 seconds,
it is because the Display option is set to
OFF. To set the Display option
to ON go to Menu > Setup > Display and change the
