Reply to "Dimmer packs do NOT need a profile."

I am setting up my first MyDMX project and have a question regarding dimmer pack assignment. I did do a search, but did not find anything specific to my question.

Anyway...

I am running 4 movers and 16 par cans. The par cans are split up among 4-4 channel Dimmer packs. They are Elation DP_DMX4B's.

My question is, when placing the par's on the MyDMX grid, I am given a new DMX address for each light. But the dimmer, looks like it uses one address for all 4 lights. What am I missing?

I am a sound guy and very new to lighting - still trying to get my head around all of this DMX stuff.

Thanks in advance.
