Chauvet DMX512 Stereo System User Manual


 
PHYSICAL FADER ASSIGNMENT (OPTIONAL SETUP)
Use this feature to combine or unify fixture control attributes for different fixtures. For example; if you
were controlling 4 moving mirrors and 4 moving yokes, the color, gobo and dimmer channels may not
line up ideally on the physical faders. Use this function to re-assign the dimmer, color and gobo
channels to faders 1, 2 and 3. From now on you will be able to control the same attributes on all
fixtures using the same fader location.
Action

buttons together (1) time to access the
channel assignment mode.
2) Press a FIXTURE button that represents
the fixture whose faders you would like to
re-assign.
3) Move the SPEED fader until you arrive at

DMX channel.
