USER'S MANUAL
and connect the signal from DMX controller to control
the various functions of the projector.
When the projector is receiving a DMX frame, if the si
gnal is lost (or the cable is disconnected) the projector
holds the current levels of DMX channels and the LED
source is still driven with the levels sent in the last valid
DMX frame.
Then, if the projector is turned off and on, and it is not
connected to a valid DMX signal, the light intensity is
brought to 0% (unless you changed the option menu
"manual" prior to switch off, see later in option settings).
Should the temperature of the LED board increase over
85°C, the electronic management automatically redu
ces the light intensity in order to bring the temperature
back to acceptable values.
In addition, the brightness of the light is brought to zero
when the temperature on the LED board rises above
100°C.
OPTION MENU
To activate the display press any button. Then to
access the options of the projector press the MENU
button. The display shows the name of the option
starting from option 1, the base DMX address. Press
again the MENU button to scroll through the list of
options. Adjust the value with UP or DOWN buttons,
then confirm your choice with ENTER (the display sho
ws
-STORED-
).
If you don't press ENTER, all your changes will be lost:
after 20 seconds of inactivity inside the options menu,
the display returns back to the idle state.
Option 1
DMX address
When the display shows
DMX ADDR
with the current
DMX address, press the UP or DOWN buttons as ma
ny times as required to display the number of the desi
red channel. To fast forward press and hold the button.
Remember that you can quickly jump to the minimum
value (001) or the maximum possible value. To set the
minimum, press UP while pressing DOWN; to set the
maximum, press DOWN while pressing UP.
Press ENTER to store or MENU to go back.
Option 2
Manual level settings
Manual settings are only effective when there is no
DMX signal connected, instead they have no effect
when the DMX signal is present (message
-ERROR-
shown).
When the display shows
MANUAL
, in the second row it
shows the channel number (starting from 1) and the
current manually set level in DMX units, for example
CH1: 255
.
The channel number is blinking, while the channel level
is steady. Use the UP or DOWN button to switch to the
desired channel (1 to 2), then press ENTER: now the
channel number is steady and the channel level is
blinking, indicating that you can modify its value. Use
UP or DOWN to adjust the channel level; for fast
forward press and hold the button. Then press MENU
to return to the channel selection.
Remember that you can quickly jump to the minimum
value (001) or the maximum value (255). To set the mi
nimum, press UP while pressing DOWN; to set the ma
ximum, press DOWN while pressing UP.
Repeat the above steps until you finish your manual
settings. Finally press ENTER to save your job, the
display shows
-STORED-
.
The values are stored into the permanent memory, and
will be reproduced until you connect the DMX signal.
Note:
After you set the manual values, when the projector is
turned off and on, and it is not connected to a valid
DMX signal, the channels levels for ch.1, ch.2 are auto
matically recalled from memory and the LED source will
behave accordingly.
If you connect a DMX signal and then remove it, the
stored values become "disabled" and at the next igni
tion (without DMX) the manual values will be ignored;
the light intensity is brought to 0%, while ch.2 is set to 0.
In all cases, if you switch on the projector with a valid
DMX signal connected, the manual settings are igno
red.
Remember that if you don't press ENTER to save in
memory, the manual settings will be lost and won't be
recalled at the next power on.
