Separating The CMB24D Channels

[Jason Bailey]

Hi, 

I just added a CMB24D DMX to my residential controller however I cant seem to separate the channels ie channel 1 on means that Red LED is on as well as a set as lights from my original residential controller. 

Can anyone help my split the channels up please?

 

Thanks

Jason

Sounds like you are running these on a single network (ie, 1 USB adapter) and both have the address of 01.

See page 8 of the CMB24D documentation to set the address of the CMB

You need to change the board ID.  LOR ships all boards as #1  (they even include a piece of paper with that on it)

On the CMB24: Turn OFF sw 9, Turn OFF sw 8   The chart is in the back of the CMB24 book.

If you run 2 networks (Regular and AuxA), technically, each is allowed to have a ID of 1. BUT IMHO it is a lot simpllat for us Humans to spot a 1 appearing on the wrong network if there is only One 1 in your show
