The projector will perform a reset function on all the internal and external motors. This will last some few seconds, after which it will be
subject to the external signal from the controller. The display will remain fixed on indicating correct
DMX 512
signal reception.
If the display flashed, there is no DMX signal being received.
Check your cabling and your controller.
7.1. DMX addressing
Each projector utilises
14
channels of
DMX 512
for complete control.
For further information, see section
7.2. DMX functions
.
DMX addresses
To ensure that each projector accesses the correct signal, it is necessary to correctly address each fixture. This procedure must be carried
out on every projector being used. When powered up initially, each projector will show
A001
which indicates
DMX address 001
; a
projector thus addressed will respond to commands on channel
1
to
14
from your
DMX controller
. A second unit should be address-
es as
A015
, a third as
A029
and so on until the final projector has been addressed.
Altering DMX addresses
1.
Press the
+
or
-
buttons until the display shows the required
DMX
address. The characters in the display will flash to indicate that the
selection is not yet stored in memory.
2.
Press the
enter
button to confirm your selection. The display panel will cease to flash and the projector will now respond to the new
DMX 512 address
.
Important Note
: holding down the
+
or
-
buttons will cause the display to alter at an increased speed, allowing a faster selection to be made.
ATTENTION!!
If you alter the DMX with no DMX controller connected, the characters in the display panel will continue to flash
even after you have pressed the ENTER button.
