LCD Backlight On/Off:
To set the LCD backlight to turn off after 20 seconds, press the
MODE button until “OTHER” is displayed, press the SET UP button
until “OTHER BLGT:XX” is displayed. “XX” represents the current
state. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the backlight to turn
“OFF” after 20 seconds or “ON” to stay on at all times.
Operating Modes:
The Encore Profile 1000 WW has three operating modes:
• Dimmer Mode - Adjust the intensity of the white color.
• Fade Mode - The unit will fade in and out.
• DMX control mode - This function will allow you to control each
individual fixtures traits with a standard DMX 512 controller.
Dimmer Mode:
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until “MANUAL
WHIT:XXX” is displayed.
2. Press the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust intensity.
3. After you have adjusted the output intensity you can then activate
strobing by pressing the SET UP button to enter strobing.
4. “STRO” will be displayed, this is strobing mode. The strobing can
be adjusted between “00” (strobing off) to “15” (fastest strobing).
DMX Mode:
Operating through a DMX controller gives the user the freedom to
create their own programs tailored to their own individual needs. The
Encore Profile 1000 WW has 3 DMX modes: 1 channel mode, 2 chan-
nel mode, and 3 channel mode. See page 15 for each mode’s DMX
traits.
1. This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s
traits with a standard DMX 512 controller.
2. To run your fixture in DMX mode press the MODE button until
“DMX MODE ADDR:XXX” is displayed. “XXX” represents the cur
rent displayed DMX address. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to
select your desired DMX address, then press the SETUP button
to select your DMX Channel mode.
3. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to scroll through the DMX Channel
modes. The Channel modes are listed below:
• “CHAN: 01” is 1 Channel DMX Mode.

Notice:
Be sure to follow figures two and three when making your own
cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not con-
nect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield
conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding
the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note: Line Termination.
When longer runs of cable are
used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic
behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is con-
nected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and
DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last
unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator
(ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic
behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors.
Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-
512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX
fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting stan-
dard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used,
these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart
below details a proper cable conversion.
