Operation
Each decoder will occupy 3 address codes. The rst character on the display will be A, H, or S to display the function setting.
The remaining three characters will be the DMX address (001–512) or the mode selection.
When in mode ‘A’, the decoder is being controlled by the DMX console. The digital display will show the rst DMX address
with the next two consecutive numbers being the remaining channels the decoder will use. So if the display shows ‘A001’,
this means that the rst channel is 001 and the other three channels are 002 and 003 respectively. When connecting
to an additional decoder, the default value of the next decoder’s rst channel would be 004 and the others two channels
of it would be 005 and 006 in this example.
When in mode ‘H’, the decoder is using the built-in test mode programs. The remaining three character spots will display the
below codes to indicate which program is currently selected.

-01 Static Red -06 Static Cyan
-02 Static Green -07 Static White

When in mode “S”, press the SET button to enter the speed adjustment setting for H-08 and H-09, then press the +/- buttons
to adjust pattern speed.
