One Dmx Universe universe contains a maximum of 512 Channels. Note these are channels not fixtures. Each fixture (Lighting unit) may use multiple channels.
For example a common fixture could use four channels the function of these channels could be :
If you had five of the same fixtures as an example you would need to use 20 channels to have independent control of all five fixtures. you would then need to set the address on each fixture. It does not matter in the order you number your fixtures address, you could make fixture ones address as 5 , fixture two as 9, three as 13, four as17, then the last address 1.
if you wanted all the the fixtures to be in sync and controlled by just four channels, you can set all five of these lights to the same channel number.
Wiring DMX is very simple using a 3 pin XLR cable you wire from one fixture to the next, Note the need to use DMX cable not a microphone cable, which has a different impedance (110 ohms vs between 45 and 75 ohms on standard microphone cable).
Using the wrong cable can result in light flickering and not acting as they should. The end fixture in the chain should also have an end terminator plug inserted in the “out connection”
The maximum distance permissible for a DMX signal is 300m. If you need longer distances, DMX Splitters are required, The maximum number of 32 DMX fixtures per DMX daisy-chain, Before a splitter is used

We had a great Turn out for this years Halloween disco at Callington Town Hall on a very wet October evening. The Kids and Parents all had a good time. It was good to see so many in their costumes dancing the night away.
The event was Arranged by Callington Town Council and with Callington Lions club Helping on the Door. Many thanks to Councillor Karen Gold of Callington Town Council for booking us again this year. Karen is the main person who keeps these community events going.
This event is always popular with the Children of Callington, But I think this may be the best we have seen in a few years.
Its always a pleasure to do a children’s event, seeing so many happy little faces.
The Town Hall in Callington has plenty of space to dance and a nice stage for us to setup our equipment.
Thank you to all who helped in anyway with the Halloween Disco last night. It was a huge success – through the door were 76 adults and 85 youngsters!  At times it was very busy and a little noisy!!  It was thoroughly enjoyed by all who came. Although it is a lot of work before the event and on the night it is well worth doing it as a community event for youngsters.
The disco was fantastic – can recommend them if you have any event coming up. Also the hall looked very effective with the decorations. It is all about working together for the benefit of our community.
Thank you to all – your support is very much appreciated.
We hired these guys for our daughters engagement party. They were lovely and they played a great mix of music. It was great that you could request songs through a link that they provided. Would recommend these guys to anyone.
We will be back at Callington Town Hall for the Family Halloween disco in just over a weeks time.
