Network settings
The PERSONALITY
→
NET ADDRESS menu lets you manually set the fixture’s DMX universe, IP
address and subnet mask.
PERSONALITY
→
NET SWITCH lets you set the fixture to automatically detect and respond to any
compatible data signal protocol (sACN or Art-Net) received at one of its Ethernet ports. This function is
enabled by default.
Pan/tilt inversion
The PERSONALITY
→
PAN INVERSE and TILT INVERSE menus let you reverse the direction of pan
and tilt. This can be useful if you want to create symmetrical effects with multiple fixtures, or if you want
to coordinate the movement of fixtures that are standing on the floor with fixtures that are being flown
upside down in a rig.
To adjust the pan inversion settings:
1.
Select PAN INVERSE and press ENTER to confirm. The currently set mode will blink in the
display.
2.
Use the DOWN and UP buttons to select YES (pan inversion) or NO (normal) mode.
3.
Press ENTER to save your selection.
You can adjust the tilt inversion settings in the same way in the TILT INVERSE menu.
Pan/tilt speed
The PAN / TILT SPEED command lets you choose between two settings:
•
FAST optimizes pan and tilt movement for speed. Slow pan and tilt movement may be less
smooth.
•
SMOOTH optimizes pan and tilt movement for smoothness. Slow pan and tilt movement will be
smoother than at the FAST setting, but maximum pan and tilt movement speed will be reduced.
Dimming curves
Four dimming curves are available:
•
LINEAR
– The increase in light intensity appears to be linear as DMX value is increased.
•
SQUARE LAW
– light intensity control is finer at low levels and coarser at high levels.
•
INVERSE SQUARE LAW
– light intensity control is coarser at low levels and finer at high levels.
•
S-CURVE
– light intensity control is finer at low levels and high levels and coarser at medium
levels.
To set the fixture’s dimming curve:
1.
Select DIMMER CURVE and press ENTER. The currently set dimming curve mode will blink in the
display.
2.
Use the DOWN and UP buttons to select LINEAR, SQUARE LAW, INV SQ LAW, or S-CURVE.
3.
Press ENTER to confirm your choice (or press MENU to exit without making a change).
