Just change the DMX base address.

Remember that light channels are patched to DMX addresses (Slots). 
Light channels should never be changed once you created cues, so you 
must change the 1:1 patching into DMX slots.

Larger fixtures are also handled this way. BTW You can also use the 
Patch Editor, but there you connect one or more DMX address(es) 
(slot) to -a- light channel.
