CHOOSING A CONTROL MODE
AL Drivers have six control modes:
• DMX512
- Port output levels are determined by the signal received at the DMX/RDM IN
connector.
• DALI
- Port output levels are determined by the signal received at the DALI IN
connector.
•
1-10V
- Outputs (for all ports combined) are determined by the 1-10V signal received at
the ANALOG IN connector.
• 0-10V
- Outputs (for all ports combined) are determined by the 0-10V signal received at
the ANALOG IN connector.
• MANUAL
- Allows you to mix emitter intensities (for all ports combined) directly from
the menu, independently of any external control input. See page 23.
•
AUTO
- Allows you to choose from ten pre-programmed chase routines (for all ports
combined) directly from the menu, independently of any external control input. See
page 23.
Note: The control mode and the DMX address can optionally be configured remotely using the
RDM (Remote Device Management) protocol via a DMX connection.
