General Instructions:
The Aviator-SP8 is a 8 channel DMX switch pack, consisting of
a Segment Display and several push buttons that can be used
easily. The Aviator-SP8 is controlled via a standard DMX con-
troller, which allows you to control special affect lighting.
The Aviator-SP8 has two different operating modes: Self Test
mode and DMX mode. Please follow the instructions below to
operate the unit in your desired mode.
Self Test Mode:
This function serves two functions. This function can be used
to run the Aviator SP-8™ as a simple 8 channel chaser. You can
also use this mode to perform a unit self test. This function will
run through a simple progressive eight channel chase. You may
only control the speed of the chase, there no built-in patterns.
2. Use the Edit button to increase the speed.
Each tap will change the speed by a value
of one. Pressing and holding down the Edit
button will increase the speed value rapidly.
1. Turn the unit’s main power on , the LCD will
detail the last adjusted speed setting. Speed
is indicated by “SP” followed by a number
value of 1-9. A value of 1 will give the slow-
est speed (a chase interval of 10 minutes),
and the value of 9 will give the fastest speed
(a chase interval of 1/10th of a second).
