SCENE BANKS 

 

The  SR616  can  store  16  operator  created  scenes  and 
activate  them  with  the  push  of  a  button.    Scenes  are 
organized  in  two  banks  (A  and  B).    A  bank  switch 
button  and  indicator  are  provided  for  switching 
between  banks.    Bank  "B"  is  active  when  the 

BANK 

A/B

 light is on.

 

 

TO RECORD A SCENE 

 

A DMX control device must be connected and used to 
create the scene to be stored in the SR616. 

 

Check that Scene Record Lockout is OFF. 

 

1.  Create a scene using the control console faders to 
 

set dimmer channels to the desired levels. 

 

2.  Select the bank where you want to store the scene. 

 

3.  Hold down 

REC

 on the SR616 until its LED  and 

the scene lights begin to flash (about 2 sec.).  

 

4.  Push the button for the scene you want recorded. 

 

 

The 

REC

 and scene lights will go 

OFF

 which 

 

shows that recording was completed. 

 

 

The 

REC

 and scene lights will stop flashing after 

 

about 20 seconds if you do not select a scene. 

 

5.  Repeat steps 1 through 4 to record other scenes. 

 

SCENE ACTIVATION 

 

Playback  of  scenes  stored  in  the  SR616  will  occur 
regardless of control console operation or status.  This 
means  that  scenes  activated  from  the  unit  will  add  to 
or “pile on” to the channel data from a DMX console. 

 

TO ACTIVATE A SCENE 

 

1.  Set the SR616 to the desired scene bank. 

 

2.  Push the button associated with the desired scene.
 

The scene will fade in according to the fade time 

 

function settings. 

 

 

The scene light will blink until the scene reaches 

 

its full level. It will then be ON.  The blink 

 

action can be disabled by a configuration option. 

 

The scene activation buttons are toggles.  To turn off 
an active scene – push its associated button. 

 

Scene  activation  can  be  either  "exclusive"  (only  one 
scene  may  be  active  at  a  time)  or  "pile  on"  (multiple 
scenes  on  at  the  same  time)  depending  on  setup 
function  selections.    During  "pile  on"  operation  - 
multiple active scenes will combine in a "greatest of" 
fashion with respect to channel intensity.  

 

THE OFF BUTTON 

 

The 

OFF

  button  blacks  out  or  turns  off  all  active 

scenes.  Its indicator is on when active. 

 

RECALL LAST SCENE 

 

The 

RECALL 

button  can  be  used  to  reactivate  the 

scene  or  scenes  which  were  on  prior  to  an  OFF 
condition.    The 

RECALL

  indicator  will  light  when  a 

recall  is  in  effect.    It  will  not  step  back  through  a 
series of previous scenes. 

 

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR 

 

TROUBLESHOOTING 

 

1.  A valid DMX control signal must be present to 
 

record a scene. 

 

2.  If a scene does not activate correctly – it may have 
 

been overwritten without your knowledge. 

 

3.  If you cannot record scenes – check that the 
 

record lockout option is not on. 

 

4.  Check that the DMX cables and/or remote wiring 
 

are not defective.  A MOST COMMON 

 

PROBLEM  SOURCE. 

 

5.  Make sure the fixture or dimmer addresses are  
 

set to the  desired channels. 

 

6.  Check that the controller softpatch (if applicable) 
 

is set correctly. 

 

OWNER MAINTENANCE

 

 

CLEANING 

 

The best way to prolong the life of your SR616 is to 
keep it dry, cool, and clean. 

 

COMPLETELY DISCONNECT THE UNIT BEFORE 
CLEANING AND MAKE SURE IT IS COMPLETELY 
DRY BEFORE RECONNECTING.
