Chauvet ECH-621 - HELP!

[StokeBloke]

Hi guys, I have just bought a lighting set up for our new venture. I wanted DMX for expandability reasons. I got my hands on someone else's set up that they were flogging as they were getting out of the mobile disco business.

The controller looks great, but I have no idea how to make it work properly as there are no instructions! :eek: Does anyone have instructions for this (or similar) controller?

The controller has eight buttons on the front plate C1-C6, auto/audio mode button and a blackout button. On the back there's DMX in and out sockets, a mic hole, a 1/4" headphone socket marked AUDIO and the 240V input socket.

The fixtures that I currently have to run from this controller are:
2 x ECH620 Micro-Barrels
2 x JBSystem Atlas LED lights
1 x SoundLab Water Wash

Over the length of time I will be running our freestyles (six hours) I want to be able to change the lighting from red/yellow/orange to dimmed blues and purples.

Cheers :beer1:

OK - no problems. It's just been manic setting up this new venture and I've been hitting millions of forums with all sorts of problems and questions. Sorry I didn't say 'hi' properly. :)

Yeah, I checked that out before I posted. I also found THIS (http://www.ukslc.org/articles/lighting/how_to_set_up_and_address_dmx_lighting.html) to be quite a help too. I was hoping that someone would be able to explain the C1-C6 buttons on the controller a bit. Just to save the 'hit-and-hope' technique I am currently using :p
