6.1 Service menu
RESET FIXTURE
This menu offers the command to reset the JBLED A7 and can be used as a first remedy
if an error occurs.
Important!
The JBLED A7 features a colour wheel channel, RGB colour mixing channels and a CTC
channel. The colour wheel channel has priority. Only if the colour wheel channel is set to
DMX value 000-001 it is possible to operate the RGB channels. The CTC channel can be
combined with both the RGB channels and the colour wheel channel.
If the fixture is set to compressed mode, there are only the RGB colour channels active.
The control channel (channel 5) offers additional control over the RGB-channels. It is
useful to adjust the white balance when units are being used in rental business and a
variety of fixtures are supposed to offer a even colour mixing.
DMX 000-007 : no white balance active.
DMX 008-015 : White balance to 8500K. Marginal reduced intensity of the RGB strings
DMX 016-023 : White balance to 6500K. Reduced intensity in blue.Possible reduction in
intensity of green and red. If fixtures are set to this DMX value a white similar to HMI
is achieved if all RGB channels are set to 100%
DMX 024-031: White balance similar to DMX 016-023. Plus the RGB curves are working
in linear mode so it is possible to use the colour picker function of various lighting control
desks.

ERROR LIST
The ERROR LIST command displays a list of any errors detected. An error can simply be
a harmless and isolated incident, but if repeated errors occur, the JBLED A7 may require
service or repair.
FUNCTION TEST
This menu provides a general test of all effects. It allows testing without controller. The
find back function of pan/tilt is disabled.
INIT PAN TILT
The
feature reinitializes pan and tilt relative to their end stops. Use it if pan
and tilt appear to have lost calibration. That means if the pan or tilt beat the reset point or
loose the find back position.

FINE ADJUST - white balance
The colour of the LEDs might vary due to the process of manufacturing. In generally LED
manufacturer select their products to so-called binnings. All JBLED A7 are being adjusted
to a reference product before they will be delivered, to make sure that there are no colour
variations.
DMX TEST
This menu lets you view the DMX values received on each channel. If the JBLED A7
does not behave as expected, reading the DMX values can help you troubleshoot the
problem.
