DMX (Digital Multiplex) is the standard protocol for controlling lighting fixtures, including hybrid moving headlights. Each hybrid light has DMX channels assigned to functions like pan, tilt, color, gobo, zoom, dimming, and effects. Lighting operators program scenes and effects using DMX controllers or software, which send digital signals to manipulate these parameters in real time. Advanced hybrid fixtures may require multiple DMX modes for simplified or expanded control. RDM (Remote Device Management) can provide feedback and auto-addressing. With DMX, designers choreograph complex movements, transitions, and synchronized lighting cues, making hybrid lights powerful tools in both live and studio environments.
