Patch Settings:
 This function allows you to overlap DMX channels 
together, giving you up to 96 DMX channels to work with. This function 
is useful if you would like several channels on one DMX pack to turn at 
once. For example, say you have a 4 channel DMX pack with 5 amps 
maximum load per a channel and you want to turn on four 500 watt 
lamps on DMX channel one.  Your DMX pack is automatically going to 
assign one 4 DMX channels to your pack one for one. To reduce the 
risk of constantly blowing your pack you can plug each lamp into all 
four (4) of your packs channels.  Then you can patch these channels 
to be triggered all at once. Since each of the 16 channels of the Light 
Station™ represent a DMX channel you would only have 16 to work 
with. However, if you patch your DMX channels, you could have a 
maximum of six DMX channels triggered per a channel on the controller. 
So, you could tell your controller to trigger DMX channels 1-4 by slider 
1 on the board. This would then activate all four channels on your 
DMX pack, allowing all four lamps to be turned on at once, therefore 
eliminating the possibility of blowing you pack channels due to excessive 
load per a channel, because now your lamps are spread out through 
your pack. To patch channels:
     1.Press and hold down the PATCH BUTTON (27) until the red 
 
  indicator LED turns on.
     2.The LCD DISPLAY (6) will read “01:01.” The left two digits 
 
  represent the controllers 16 channels (1-8 faders and 9-16 Latch 
 
  Buttons). The right two digits represent the 96 available DMX 
 
  channels.
  3. Use the STEP up and DOWN BUTTONS (20 & 21) to adjust the 
 
  DMX channels you wish to patch.
  4. Use the PATTERN UP and DOWN BUTTONS (18 & 19) to select 
 
  the controller channel (1-16) you wish to patch the DMX channel 
 
  too. 
  5. Be sure to select your DMX channel before you select your 
 
  controller  channel to complete this function properly.
  6. After you have completed your adjustments, hold down the PATCH 
 
  BUTTON (27) until the red indicator LED shuts off, to exit this 
 
  function.
Manual Mode: 
This function shuts off all other functions and allow 
you to use the controller as a basic on/off dimmer. To activate this mode

SHIFT BUTTON (16).
