Control panel
You can configure individual fixture settings (such as the ERA 800 Performance’s DMX address), read out
data, execute service operations and view error messages using the fixture’s backlit graphic display and
control panel.
When the ERA 800 Performance is powered on, it boots and carries out a reset. Then it shows the default
information display shown in Figure 5:
• Fixture’s DMX address
• ‘No data’ mode setting (in Figure 5 it is set to HOLD)
• Current LED temperature sensor reading.
• DMX channels occupied by the fixture. If the DMX address is set to 001, for example, the fixture will
occupy channels 001–042.
Display appearance
The display flashes if no DMX signal is being received.
The display enters sleep mode and blacks out after 60 seconds with no activity. If you want to see the
display of a fixture that is hanging in a rig, for example, you can bring it out of sleep mode remotely by
sending a ‘Display ON’ command on the Control / Settings DMX channel.
The display can be rotated to match standing or hanging fixture orientation in the PERSONALITY

DISPLAY menu.
