Output Channels:
The “Output Channels” parameter allows the

Output PWM Resolution:
The Bit Depth setting controls the DMX output smoothing resolution, either
“08” for
8-bit or
“16” for
16-bit. The decoder provides
output smoothing in 16-bit mode (default and recommended). The setting helps to reduce visible steps in brightness when dimming
through DMX. This setting is different from a true 16-bit DMX input. 16-bit DMX input that uses two DMX channels for each output
channel is set through the Decoding Mode.
