After creating a scene with your DMX controller, follow the instructions below for each fixture on which you want to capture preset scenes:

1. Press and hold the <Menu> button until “ADDR” appears on the LED display.

2.Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “PRST” menu

and press the <Enter> button to select the “PRST” menu.

3.Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the “CAPT” menu

and press the <Enter> button to select the “CAPT” menu.

 

4. Using the <Up> and <Down> arrow buttons, scroll to the scene you

to

want to copy the preset scene to (destination scene) and press the

<Enter> button.

Pressing the <Enter> button will copy the DMX-512 controller’s preset scene to the selected scene on your fixture’s on-board 16 scene memory. When the fixture finishes the capture successfully, “DONE” will appear briefly in the fixture’s LED display.

Note

manually select values for the XFAD, DLAY, and TIME

 

constructs, since a DMX controller will not transmit

 

those construct values. For more information on using

 

the fixture’s on-board scene memory, refer to the

 

Technobeam® User Manual.
