OK, well besides using the analog inputs for triggers:

Go .xx if input n is within 0-512

It can also be used directly as DMX values, since firmware v2.09:

LCX only: Analog channels 1-8 are now also visible as light channels 
3061-3068, but scaled to 8 bit. We choose the high channel numbers in 
order to prevent conflicts with current cues. You can map the 
channels to any DMX address you want, and when using a curve you have 
a 256 step lookup table.
