IMPORTANT: 1’ fixtures require a different drive
current setting to the longer 4’ fixtures - it is vitally
important to select the correct setting to avoid
damage to the fixtures. The drive current setting
affects all outputs equally, so it is not possible to mix
the two sizes on the same driver unit.
See “Fixture drive
current selection” on page 9.
