Section 1: General introduction  
Thank you for choosing the Elation DMX Operator Pro. The DMX Operator Pro is a 136 channel hybrid  
lighting control device designed for DJ’s, clubs and small touring applications. This controller allows  
operators to easily manipulate conventional and moving lights via simple to use buttons and faders. The  
DMX Operator Pro puts programming, playback and live manipulation of Scenes and Shows at your  
fingertips.  
The DMX Operator Pro can control up to 8 moving lights, each consisting up to 16 channels- max 128  
channels. Up to 96 programmable Scenes and 8 programmable Shows can be recorded for the moving  
light section. Up to 96 programmable Scenes and 6 programmable Shows can be recorded for the  
conventional Par Can section. There is also a compact flash slot on the rear for an optional 32MB card so  
programs and setting can be saved. The compact flash card is NOT universal- it is a proprietary card that  
you must buy from the dealer where you purchased your console. The model number for the optional card  
is “32MB CARD”.  
Also incorporated are 14 quick access scene buttons, 8 for moving lights and 6 for Par Cans, 8 quick  
access Show buttons for moving lights and 6 Show buttons for Par Cans. The DMX Operator Pro also  
incorporates an assignable joystick- ideal for pan/tilt control of scanners and moving heads. A master  
fader shall be used to control the overall intensity for all 8 Par Can channels. A separate section of 8  
independent faders are included so the lighting operator can easily control Par Cans on the fly. Other  
features include a Tap Sync button for manual Show override, Step/Mix/Sequence button for Show  
playback, Audio button for music trigger (via internal microphone or line level input), Group button to  
control more than 1 fixture at a time and four speed and fade faders for manual override of Shows.

Section: 7 Set Up  
7.1 Connections  
It is strongly recommended that you use shielded twisted-pair cable for your data runs.  
Microphone cable cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long runs. Never use a “Y” connector or  
any other means to split the link. If you need to branch out in different directions, use a dedicated  
Opto-isolated splitter such as the Elation Opto Branch-4 or DMX Branch-4. It is also important to  
not overload a link. For best results, it is suggested that you run up to 32 fixtures on a single link.  
Always, terminate the link by installing a termination plug into the output socket of the last fixture  
in line. In most cases, a terminator consist of a male 3 pin XLR connector with a quarter watt 120  
ohm resistor soldered across pins 2 & 3. Ask your local Elation dealer for DMX compliant cables,  
branches and terminators designed for lighting control.  
(1) With an XLR male to female cable, connect the XLR male end into the DMX Operator  
Pros output socket.  
(2) With the opposite end of the same cable, connect the female XLR end into the input of  
your first moving light fixture or dimmer pack in the link.  
(3) With another XLR cable, connect the male XLR end into the output of your first moving  
light or dimmer pack and the female XLR end into the input of your second moving light or  
dimmer pack in the link.  
(4) In a daisy chain manner, continue to connect the remainder of your moving lights and  
dimmer packs and install a terminator into the output of the last fixture in the link.

DMX OPERATOR PRO  
7.1.1 Setting DMX Address Channels for Moving Lights  
Every fixture in the link must be assigned a DMX address channel, also known as a start channel,  
which is the first channel the controller uses to send information to the fixtures. The DMX  
Operator Pro allows for control of up to 8 individual fixtures each occupying 16 DMX channels.  
Fixtures of the same type can share the same address and will mimic each others behavior. There  
is no fixture library incorporated into the DMX Operator Pro. Each fixture is automatically  
assigned sixteen DMX channels regardless of how may channels it uses. Therefore, the starting  
address channel for each fixture has been predefined. Please see below for additional  
instructions on assigning your fixtures.  
(1) Set the starting DMX address channel on your first moving light fixture to one (1).  
(2) Set the DMX channel on your second moving light fixture to seventeen (17).  
(3) Set the DMX channel on your third fixture to thirty three (33).  
(4) Set the DMX channel on your fourth fixture to forty nine (49).  
(5) Continue to address the remainder of your fixtures according to the chart below.

7.1.2 Setting DMX Address Channels for Dimmer Packs (Par Cans)  
The DMX Operator Pro allows for control of up to eight independent dimmer channels via two  
channel dimmer packs such as the Elation DP-415 or DP-DMX20L. Dimmer packs can share the  
same address and will mimic each others behavior. The eight dimmer channels shall be  
controlled via eight independent channel faders. The DMX Operator Pro reserves DMX channels  
129 to 136 for the par section. To set two four channel dimmer packs for operation with the DMX  
Operator Pro, follow these steps:  
(1) Set the starting DMX address channel on your first dimmer pack in the link to (129)- dip  
switches 1 & 8 ON.  
(2) Set the DMX channel on your second dimmer pack in the link to (133)- dip switches 1,3 &  
8 ON.  
(3) Additional packs may be linked and assigned to these address settings- 129 or 136. All  
packs assigned the same address channels will mimic each other.

DMX OPERATOR PRO  
7.3.2 Record a Moving Light Show (Cont.)  
(4) Next, set your desired hold and fade time for your first Show step by using the  
“SPEED” fader for your HOLD time and the “FADE” fader for your FADE time. The  
hold and fade time range is five tenths of a second to ten minutes. Therefore, the  
maximum times that can be set to hold or fade a selected scene step is 10 minutes  
and the minimum time is .5 second. Note: When adjusting the speed fader, “S”  
represents “Speed” followed by the set hold time- .05 to 59.00S (Seconds), after 59  
seconds, the LCD will display “1M00S”, “M” represents minutes and can be adjusted  
up to 10M00S (10 minutes and 0 seconds). “F” represents Fade time.  
(5) Once your scene is selected and your speed and fade times have been set, press the  
“RECORD” button, all of the LED’s will flash one (1) time and your Show step will  
advance one (1) time as well. The LCD will display the following:

Par Can Chases can be played back in ONE, MIXED or SEQUENCE modes. On the console  
MIXED is abbreviated by “MIX” and SEQUENCE by “SEQ”. In ONE mode, Chases playback one  
at a time. Each selected Chase will over ride a previously selected Chase. In MIXED mode, all  
selected Chase LED’s will flash simultaneously and all selected Chases will run at the same time.  
If a channel, 129-136, is included into more than one (1) Chase, the last selected Chase will be  
the one to take precedence. In SEQUENCE mode, selected Chases will playback one at a time in  
the order they were selected. The relevant Chase LED’s will flash when running while the other  
Chase LED’s remain steadily ON in stand by.  
(1) Select the desired playback mode by pressing the “One/Mix/SEQ” button. When the  
One/Mix/SEQ LED is OFF, you are in “One” mode. When the LED above the

the LED above the One/Mix/SEQ button is flashing, playback will take place in  
SEQUENCE mode.  
(2) Select the “CHASE” button that you wish to playback. The selected Chase or  
Chases will begin to run immediately at the set speed of your “SPEED” fader. At this  
time, you may adjust the “SPEED” fader to your desired setting, use the “TAP SYNC”  
button by manually tapping on the button two (2) times- the Chase rate will then  
change according to the timing between each tap, or press the “FADE+SPEED” to
