Assuming you mean fixtures 9 - 12:
Light 9 - channel 129 = 1 & 8 ON
Light 10 - channel 145 = 1 & 5 & 8 ON
Light 11 - channel 161 = 1 & 6 & 8 ON
Light 12 - channel 177 = 1 & 5 & 6 & 8 ON
Hope that helps.

This might be of interest to you in the future. Just type in you base address and it tells you what dips to use.

Well, yes, but I didn't like to say. I'm guessing that you've got a controller with eight channels, that double up to 16. That means you can't control twelve fixtures without changing up. Also, I'm assuming you want all cans to do the same at once.
Option one:
All at once, set 'em all to 1, and twelve cans act as one.
Option two:
See above. Eight buttons, twelve lights, eight in pairs, four single.
The explanation's crap, but I know what I mean. :o

Give me a call, if you like. I can probably explain it better verbally, than with a keyboard.
