Waring Diagram
Up, Down button is for menu selection.After power on the decoder, if keep on clicking Up button, you will find below menu on display:
DMX signal indicator 
When DMX signal input is detected, the indicator on the display following after 
turns on red 
.
 | Means DMX address. fa ctory defaults setting is 001. |
 | Means DMX channels quantity. |
 | Means Bit (8bit or 16bit). factory defaults setting is 16bit |
 | Means output PWM frequency. factory defaults setting is 1K HZ |
 | Means output dimming curve gamma value, factory defaults setting is ga 1.5 |
 | Means Decoding mode, factory defaults setting is dp1.1 |
By holding button Back + Enter together at the same time over 5 seconds until the display go off, it will restore default settings .
- DMX address setting:
select menu
, click button “Enter”, display flashes,then click or hold button “Up” I “Down” to set DMX address (click is slow, hold is fast.), then click button”Back” to confirm.
2. DMX channel quantity setting:
Select menu
, click button “Enter”, display flashes, then click button “Up” I “Down” to set DMX channel quantity , then click button”Back” to confirm.
For example the DMX address is already set 001.
CH01=1 DMX address for all the output channels, which are all address 001.
CH02=2 DMX addresses , output 1 &3 is address 001, output 2,4 is address 002
CH03=3 DMX addresses, output 1, 2 is address 001,002, output 3,4 is address 003
CH04=4 DMX addresses, output 1,2,3,4 is address 001,002,003,004
DMX address is 001, CH01

3. PWM output resolution Bit setting:
select menu , click button “Enter”,display flashes, then click button “Up” / “Down” to choose 08 or 16 bit, then click button”Back” to confirm.
4. output PWM frequency setting:
select menu , click button “Enter”, display flashes,then click button “Up” / “Down”to choose 00-30, then click button”Back” to confirm. 00=500HZ, 01=1kHZ, 02=2kHZ 30=30kHZ.
5. output dimming curve gamma value setting:
select menu , click button “Enter”, display flashes, then click or hold button “Up” / “Down” to choose 0.1-9.9, then click button”Back” to confirm.
6. DMX decoding mode setting:
Select menud , click button “Enter”, display flashes, then click or hold button “Up” /town” to choose the decoding mode, then click button”Back” to confirm. -dPxx” means the DMX address quantity used for control of corresponding PWM output channel quantity. 1st “x” is DMX address quantity, 2nd “x” is PWM channel quantity.
Micro dimming: the micro dimming effect can only be visible when the dimming curve gamma value is set lower than 1.4, and the lower the value is, the more visible the micro dimming effect will be.
The data definitions for strobe channel are as follows:
{0, 7})/undefined
{8, 65},//slow strobe–>fast strobe
{66, 71},//undefined
{72, 127},//slow push fast close
{128, 133},//undefined
{134, 189},//slow close fast push
{190, 195},//undefined
{196, 250},//random strobe
{251, 255},//undefined
