DMX Protocol
Introduction
The Action panel Full Color can be used with 8 bit or 16 bit DMX control.
(See DMX OPERATION – advanced settings in the user’s manual).
When used in 8 bit mode the Action panel Full Color uses one channel for each
function. DMX values for each channel are in the range of 0 to 255.
When used in 16 bit mode the Action panel Full Color uses two channels for
each function. The increased resolution offers a smooth dimming and a more
accurate color adjustment. DMX values for the first channel (byte
- are in the range of 256 to 65535 while for the second channel (byte 2) they are in the range of 0 to 255.
The fixture use the number of channels required based on the light mode
selected CCT / HSI / RGBW /PRESET / PARTY / COPCAR / DISCO 1 / DISCO2 /
TELEVISION 1 / TELEVISION 2 / PAPARAZZI / LIGHTNING /EXPLOSION / FIREWORKS /
FIRE.
The Action panel Full Color uses consecutive channels starting from the DMX
channel set on the panel (DMX address) used as reference for the connection to
the control desk. Please take the above into consideration when using many
units of Action panel Full Color to avoid overlaps.
**ATTENTION:** The symbol – ! – on the display indicates that there is no
DMX signal.
