DMX Modes and Configuration
The TX-6 Z has multiple DMX modes, sometimes called “personalities”, “profiles”, or as we
will use here “modes”.
In general, modes with more DMX channels offer a greater level of control or options but
take up more of your output channels on your lighting console or software.
Modes with less DMX channels often offer less control, but may be plenty for your needs.
Depending on your needs and control solution, you may not need channels for auto-
mated programs, strobes, or macros – your console may have great effects! In this case,
you can use a lesser channel mode and fit more lights per DMX universe.
The TX-6 Z offers a 22 and 26 channel mode.
The 26 channel mode features 16-bit control for more parameters and a PT speed control,
while still not taking many more channels.
We recommend using the 26 channel mode for best results.
