DMX CHANNEL ALLOCATION
When using he LRX wi h a ligh ing console or o her device ha offers discre e
con rol over he DMX channels, hey are used by he fix ure as follows:
Where N= [LRX DMX address shown on display]:
N + (0-9) = mo or con rol (depends on MODE)
N+10 = GEL fan ON/OFF (OFF<127<=ON)
N+11 = lamp con rol (unimplemen ed)
N+12 = mo or con rol MODE: N+12<127 = BUMP MODE
N+12>=127 = FADER MODE
N+13 = reserved (fu ure use)
N+14 = reserved (fu ure use)
N+15 = reserved (fu ure use)

If (MODE = BUMP): (n+13<127)
(N+0 > 127) = pan lef
(N+1 > 127) = pan righ
(N+2 > 127) = il up
(N+3 > 127) = il down
(N+4 > 127) = spo
(N+5 > 127) = flood
(N+6 hru 9) = reserved (fu ure use)
If (MODE=FADER): (n+13>=127)
(N+0 < 64) = pan lef
(N+0 > 127) = pan righ
(N+1 < 64) = il up
(N+1 > 127) = il down

(N+2 > 127) = flood
(N+3 hru 9) = reserved (fu ure use); Each mo or above is s opped when he
fader is in he middle of i s range (DMX value 64-127).
FIXTURE ADDRESSING
Lamp addressing is performed a he rear of he hanger assembly. The fix ure can be
programmed o opera e in DMX mode or FIXTURE mode (for use wi h he hand
con roller). Because each LRX fix ure requires six een DMX channels for opera ion,
FIXTURE mode is merely a convenien way of skipping DMX channels in 16 channel
incremen s, beginning wi h DMX channel #001. Addi ionally, fix ure mode provides
power o a connec ed hand con roller, which is also designed o work in 16 channel
incremen s.
The mode (square icon) on he lef is used o oggle be ween DMX mode and FIXTURE
mode. FIXTURE mode is designa ed by a capi al ‘F’ in he lef -mos digi , wi h he
remaining wo digi s indica ing he fix ure number. E.g. F01=fix ure#1, e c. DMX
mode is shown as a hree digi number from 001 o 512. Once he mode is selec ed he
fix ure number or DMX address can be increased or decreased using he up/down
arrows on righ side of he swi ch assembly. When he correc FIXTURE/address has
been selec ed, he s ore (round icon) bu on second from he lef is pressed and held
(un il he display s ops flashing) o s ore ha address. I is impor an o no e ha
he LRX fix ure will no begin responding o a newly selec ed FIXTURE/DMX address
un il i has been s ored by pressing and holding he s ore (round icon) bu on.
If he
display is flashing, his is a warning ha he displayed FIXTURE/DMX address does
no ma ch he address ha fix ure is curren ly responding o. Saving he displayed
address ells he fix ure o begin lis ening and responding o he new address.

IMPORTANT: When he LRX fix ure is in FIXTURE mode, pins 4 & 5 on he DMX IN
connec or become energized o 12VDC o supply power o he hand con roller. No power
is supplied o pins 4 & 5 when in DMX mode. Ensure ha fix ure is in he correc
mode prior o connec ing DMX lines. Always connec he hand con roller o he fix ure
wi h he power off. Damage could resul if a emp ing o connec he hand con roller
o he LRX while he power is on.
Pressing and holding he mode bu on will provide access o he hour me er. Once in
hour me er mode press he up icon o display bulb hours, indica ed as a scrolling
