DMX Operation

VL2500 Spot Channel Mapping

These tables assume a DMX start address of 1. When a different starting address is used, this address
becomes channel 1 function and other functions follow in sequence.

*Notes:
Use of Timing Channels: The default value setting in the profile should be 255 (proportional control) to allow smooth movement when using console
timing. The Timing channel data should change as a snap. A zero value will give the fastest move but without any smoothing, this can look steppy in
console timed moves.
To use a timing channel instead of console timing it is necessary to set the timing channel to the desired value and set cue and/or parameter time to zero. A
combination of time controls can produce unexpected results. Refer to
Timing Channel Control: The luminaire uses the timing channel value to calculate a smooth continuous movement for a given time and transition
Console Timing: The Console calculates the time duration between the DMX increments to be sent for a given time and transition.
Timing Channel Mapping:
Focus timing: Pan and Tilt
Color timing: Cyan, Yellow, Magenta, and the Fixed Color Wheel.
Beam timing: Zoom, Edge, and Iris.
Gobo Timing: Gobo Wheels (Rotating and Fixed).
Note, Index/Rotation and wheel spins channels are not mapped to a Timing Channel.
