Depending on the device you can adjust PAN, TILT, GOBO's, color filters. But as said depends on the device. for a smoke machine it probably just on and off. Scanners can use a couple of DMX channels, so 1 for tilt, 1 for pan, 1 for colorfilter etc...

And no I don't mean the rapper.

I have a few DMX lasers, some par cans and a dmx smoke machine.

My experience of DMX is just slide faders, up for on etc

Is that all you can do?
