6.2. Powering up
Panorama Power MK2
is supplied with a 4 leaf barndoor which is generally in the closed position when shipping.
After having completed all the operations discussed up to this point, turn on mains power to the fixture.
The display will come on and show the software version currently installed in the internal microprocessor.
For example, upon turning on power, the
Panorama Power MK2
may show:
V1.00
( pcb software version )
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.
6.3. DMX addressing
Each projector utilises
6
channels of
DMX 512
for complete control (for further information, see section
6.4 DMX functions
).
DMX addresses
Upon first powering up, the display will show
A001
indicating
DMX address 001
; a projector thus addressed will respond to com-
mands on channel 1 to 6 from your DMX controller. A second unit should be addresses as A007, a third as A013 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.
ATTENTION!!
The barndoors should always be in an open position prior to turning on the lamp.
This will avoid the possiblity of the lamp and projector being damaged through overheating.
