6.2.1 Automatic address adjustment
This method is recommended when several CPL-
3DMX units are used and the first unit is to receive
start address 1:
1) On all CPL-3DMX units, set all DIP switches (2)
to the lower position (OFF)
Fig. 4 Automatic adjustment: all switches set to OFF
2) Interconnect all CPL-3DMX units via the DMX
INPUT (5) and the DMX OUTPUT (6) (
ter 6 .1) and switch them on .
3) On the first CPL-3DMX unit (directly connected
to the light controller), keep the button AUTO
DMX ADDRESS (3) pressed for five seconds until
the LEDs connected are extinguished .
After a while, the LEDs will light up again . The start
address of the first CPL-3DMX unit is now set to
1 . The start addresses of the following CPL-3DMX
units are respectively set to the next DMX address
that is free:
2
unit to address 5
nd
3
unit to address 9
rd
4
unit to address 13
th
5
unit to address 17, etc .

6.2.2 Manual address adjustment
The start address is adjusted as a binary number
with the DIP switches Nos . 1 – 9 (2) . It will result
by adding the place values of the switches set to
"ON" . (Switch No . 10 is without function .)
Examples of the start addresses 1, 6 and 104:
ON
OFF
Fig. 5 Start address 1: switch No. 1 set to ON

The easiest way is to start from the highest possible
place value and to add the smaller values until the
start address will result .
6.3 Control with the LED-4C
The unit LED-4C from IMG STAGE LINE is an easy-
to-use controller which also allows to control the
CPL-3DMX . The LED-4C is equipped with 4 chan-
nels so that all units connected to it can only be
controlled synchronously .
Set the start address of the CPL-3DMX to 1
or to a multiple of 4 + 1 (5, 9, 13, ..., 61 max .),
