9 MENU FUNCTIONS:

9.1 Function Mode

9.1.1. DMX address setting

This function is used to set or adjust the fixture’s starting DMX address. Every device controlled by DMX has to have a unique starting address. The addressing feature is what allows DMX to function properly. The DMX address of a fixture is what allows it to communicate with a controller properly. The DMX addressing also allows the fixture to ignore any DMX information coming from the controller that is not meant specifically for the fixture. Because each fixture is connected in a daisy-chain fashion it is imperative to assign a proper and unique starting DMX address to each and every fixture. The DMX address is non-destructive and will remain in the fixture’s memory even when the power to the unit is switched off. Memory is backed-up and retain by an internal power source that should last about five years. For proper DMX addressing see Section 10/Page 32 of this user manual.

9.1.2. Display the DMX 512 value of each channel

With this function you can display the DMX 512 value of each channel. The display will automatically readout the changing DMX values as they are received.

9.1.3. Slave setting

With this function, you can define the device as slave for operation in Master/Slave mode.

9.1.4. Auto Program

This function allows the internal programs to run. The desired program is selected in the “Select program” section of the control menu. You can set the number of steps under “Edit program”. You can edit the individual scenes under “Edit scenes”. With this function, you can run the individual scenes either automatically, i.e. with the adjusted Step-Time.
