mode or can provide 24 preset scenes organized in 2 banks of 12 scenes each. Twelve user defined chase patterns
are always available. Scene fade rate, chase rate and chase fade rate are user controlled. Audio may also be used

control.
INSTALLATION
The TL - 112 control console should be kept away from moisture and direct sources of heat. The unit is intended for
indoor use only.
Connect the unit to a Lightronics (or compatible) dimmer using a multiplex control cable with 3 pin XLR connectors.
The TL - 112 is powered by the dimmer which it is connected to. It may also be powered via an optional external
power 13 VAC supply. If you are using audio for chase control - ensure that the microphone holes on the back of the
