Set the product in DMX mode to control with a DMX controller.

1.Connect the product to a suitable power outlet.

2.Turn the product on.

3.Connect a DMX cable from the DMX output of the DMX controller to the DMX input socket on the product.

The 4BAR™ Flex has a single 15-channel personality.

The 4BAR™ Flex uses up to 15 DMX channels in its highest DMX mode, which defines the highest configurable address to 498.

When selecting a starting DMX address, always consider the number of DMX channels the selected DMX mode uses. If you choose a starting address that is too high, you could restrict the access to some of the product’s channels.

If you are not familiar with the DMX protocol, download the DMX Primer from www.chauvetlighting.com.

To choose your starting address:

1.Press <MENU> repeatedly until 512 shows on the display.

2.Press <ENTER>

3.Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the starting address.

1.Press <ENTER>.
