Section 1: General introduction Thank you for choosing the Elation DMX Operator Pro. The DMX Operator Pro is a 136 channel hybrid
lighting control device designed for DJ’s, clubs and small touring applications. This controller allows
operators to easily manipulate conventional and moving lights via simple to use buttons and faders. The
DMX Operator Pro puts programming, playback and live manipulation of Scenes and Shows at your
fingertips.
The DMX Operator Pro can control up to 8 moving lights, each consisting up to 16 channels- max 128
channels. Up to 96 programmable Scenes and 8 programmable Shows can be recorded for the moving
light section. Up to 96 programmable Scenes and 6 programmable Shows can be recorded for the
conventional Par Can section. There is also a c ompact flash slot on the rear for an optional 32 MB card so
programs and setting can be saved. The compact flash card is NOT universal- it is a proprietary card that
you must buy from the dealer where you purchased your console. The model number for the optional card
is “32MB CARD”.
Also incorporated are 14 quick access scene buttons, 8 for moving lights and 6 for Par Cans, 8 quick
access Show buttons for moving lights and 6 Show buttons for Par Cans. The DMX Operator Pro also
incorporates an assignable joystick- ideal for pan/tilt control of scanners and moving heads. A master
fader shall be used to control the overall intensity for all 8 Par Can channels. A separate section of 8
independent faders are included so the lighting operator can easily control Par Cans on the fly. Other
features include a Tap Sync button for manual Show override, Step/Mix/Sequence button for Show
playback, Audio button for music trigger (via internal microphone or line level input), Group button to
control more than 1 fixture at a time and four speed and fade faders for manual override of Shows.
