About DMX

DMX data is a value that is sent on a specific channel to a specific Artnet address. Only the device with that specific address will recognize the command and will execute that command.

Some adjustments consist out of 2 channels to update a setting. The first channel of the pair provides coarse control changes, the second channel provides fine control changes. Some examples are 'pan' and 'tilt'.
