Pixel Mapping Personalities

DMX pixel mapping personalities assign individual DMX control to each bulb in the Festoon string/s. The Pixel Mode will allow for custom color selection for each bulb. The Pixel+ Mode allows for custom color control, dimmer control, strobe control, and auto/sound program control. Select Pixel or Pixel+ under the Channel setting to use the Pixel Mapping Personalities. The pixel mapping personalities depends on the number of festoon strings you have connected. Every 20 bulbs is considered one LED string.

Up to 2 Festoon EXT strings can be connected to the first string of 20 bulbs. Set the quantity of EXT strings under the Led Strg setting.

For example, if there is 1 Festoon string of 20 bulbs and 1 Festoon EXT string of 20 bulbs connected, the Led Strg setting in the menu must have “2 strg” selected.
