SELF TEST MODE (
Shxx
)
This menu option provides self test routines designed to help check for stuck or failed
emitters within an installation. No DMX input is required to run these tests.
TO RUN A SELF TEST
1 Configure the required segment grouping and pixel range settings for the installed Flex
Tube Pixel strip.
2 Use the
DOWN
button repeatedly until the display shows
Shxx
(where xx is a value
between 01 and 04)
.
3 Press and hold the
MENU
button for roughly two seconds until the bar and dot on the left
side of the display start flashing.
4 Use the
UP/DOWN
buttons to choose any of the four test sequences:
•
Sh01
- Shows a rapid sequential strobing through all red, green and blue¹ emitters,
•
Sh02
- Slowly fades between all red, green and blue¹ emitters,
•
Sh03
- Shows a band of pixels which scroll from end to end and back again, alternately
using the red, green and blue¹ emitters²,
•
Sh04
- Shows two separate slow fades in each half of the strip, alternately using the red,
green and blue¹ emitters².
¹ Plus white for RGBW versions.
² The exact manner in which the Flex Tube Pixel strip responds to these tests is determined by
the 9rxx and Pxxx menu settings, see page 14.
5 Press and hold the
MENU
button for roughly two seconds until the bar and dot on the left
side of the display stop flashing.
Note: The last state of the test pattern will remain until either a DMX input is applied or the
power input is cycled.
CHANNELS PER SEGMENT (
CH0x
)
Determines how many DMX channels are required to control each segment. Valid settings
are:
•
CH03
for RGB strips, or
•
CH04
for RGBW (QS or QW4) strips.
INTEGRATED CIRCUIT (
IC01
)
Determines the type of addressable driver ICs used within the connected Flex Tube Pixel.
Currently the only valid option is
IC01
and this setting should not be changed.
