DMX pixel mapping personalities assign individual DMX control to each orb in the MotionOrb™.
A MotionOrb™ in DMX pixel mapping personality and a DMX controller with pixel mapping
capability are the tools for creating complex and eye catching light shows. Chauvet's
ShowXpress PC-based controller has pixel mapping.
The pixel mapping personality to select depends on the length of the MotionOrb™ and the
personality works with the length setting. For example, if there are 4 orb strings on the
MotionOrb™ the length setting must be 4M for the DMX_315CH personality to work properly.
To put the MotionOrb™ into a pixel mapping personality simply select one of the following DMX
personalities.
For a 2 m MotionOrb™ with 11 orbs per string
DMX_165CH
(1 standard orb string and 1 bottom orb string; no extensions)
For a 3 m MotionOrb™ with 16 orbs per string
DMX_240CH
(1 standard orb string plus 1 orb string extension, and 1 bottom orb string)
For a 4 m MotionOrb™ with 21 orbs per string
DMX_315CH (1 standard orb string plus 2 orb string extensions, and
1 bottom orb string)
For information about setting the DMX personality, see
The Length setting must be set properly for pixel mapping to work. For instructions
about setting the length see
