Learn how to set up the HolidayCoro HinksPix Pro v1, v2, or v3 with xLights using the RS485 / DMX190 output port for DMX devices like smoke machines, moving heads, and other serial-controlled effects.
This video shows how to configure DMX output in xLights, create channel blocks, assign them to the HinksPix Pro serial port, and map multiple DMX devices to the correct channel ranges within a single universe. It also covers basic RS485 wiring, explains how the controller outputs up to 510 DMX channels on one universe, and shows how xLights automatically increments channel assignments when you chain multiple devices.
If you are using HolidayCoro controllers for DMX or RS485 effects, this tutorial helps you understand how to connect your devices, place them correctly in xLights, and assign the right channel ranges for reliable control. It also explains that universe assignment happens at the controller level, while the DMX device itself only needs the correct start address set locally.
