PRELIMINARY
K-CTRL
The pre-programmed soft fade or hard
switching patterns can be chosen by
means of CH1 whilst CH2 is used as a
level channel. CH3 allows to set the fade
time or pattern speed from slow (value
50) to very fast (value 255). If channel 4
reaches a DMX value of 50 or above a
tact function will be added to the chases.
The tact speed can be adjusted from slow
(value 50) to 23 pulses per second (value
255).
In this mode the potentiometer (1) is
disabled.
Note:
Whether the unit works in static mix
mode or pattern mode depends on the
value of channel 3. Set the value of
channel 3 below 50 to be in static mix
mode. Otherwise you will be in pattern
mode.
Addressing has to be done as follows:
001 first device
(CH 1-4) *factory default*
005 second device
(CH 5-8)
009 third device
(CH 9-12)
013 fourth device
(CH 13-16)
and so on.
This setting is stored even if the device is
switched off.
9.6 Display on/off
9.10 Key lock
If you wish the display to be lit only when
a change in operation is made, the DIP
switch (17) should be in the position off.
Now if any of the buttons is not pressed
for more than approximately 25 seconds
the display is switched off. As soon as
one of the buttons is pressed again, the
display switches on immediately. In this
case the first touch of the button is ignored
in respect to the normal function of that
button.
Pressing the MODE button (5) for longer
than 3 seconds locks all the buttons (5-
7) and the potentiometer (1). The display
shows “LOC” in alteration to the mode
(changing every 2 seconds). Pressing
the MODE button again for more than
3 seconds unlocks the button and
potentiometer functions. Please note:
If the display is in OFF-mode it will take
approximately 25 seconds before the
display switches off. It will be switched on
again if any key is touched and will switch
off again after 25 seconds if the keys are
not unlocked by the procedure mentioned
above.
