4-2 DMX Programming DL.1 User Manual

DMX Output Displays

Although all lighting consoles output the same 512 channels of DMX per link, the on-

screen labeling often differs. Parameter functions are displayed in either alpha-numeric

descriptions (strobe 1), percentage (0-100%) or decimal (0-255 for 8-bit and 0-65535 for

16-bit). Consult your lighting console manual for further information.

16-bit DMX

Individual access of the two DMX channels used with 16-bit parameters varies by lighting

console. Consult your lighting console manual for further information.
