:hurt:

 

ok... im one of the old schoolers who like to plug things in and just have them work..... :spin:

 

I have just taken delivery of a DMX512 desk with all sorts of sliders and buttons on it..

 

I have 4 par cans with dip switches on the back...

 

i have a single acme miracled with digital readout on the back. :toot:

 

I count myself on the plus side of the average IQ :pro:

 

I can't figure it out :wall:

 

:shrug: help!!!

 

edit... reverse polarity swotch has cured most of my woe's!!!!! I have assigned miracled as number 1 (7chanels) and the par cans as 8, 12, 16 and 20 as they have 4 chanells easch.. is that right?

There are a few decent "How to" vids on you tube.

Agreed, head to You Tube for advice on DMX controllers.
