DMX-512 addressing
This mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a "start address" from 1 to 511. A fixture
requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a
fixture that occupies or uses 6 channels of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels:
100, 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105. Choose start addresses so that the channels used do not overlap and notate the start address selected
for future reference. The Legend 250RX operates using 16 channels of DMX control.

If this is your first time addressing a fixture using the DMX-512 control protocol than I suggest jumping to the Appendix Section and
read the heading “DMX Primer”. It contains very useful information that will help you understand its use.

After this initial power-up sequence, if the fixture receives no DMX signal, it w ill enter into a stand alone mode. Be sure to power up
your DMX controller device before the lighting fixture to avoid unwanted auto mode operation.
