There are 4 possible parameter menus: Min Level, Max level, Curve and Source. Use the

and

“Parameter Selector” buttons to scroll through the parameter settings for the selected channel(s).
Min Level Max level
Curve Source
•
A channel
s “Curve” must be set to “TruPower” before “Auto Power” can be selected as the
“Source”
•
If a channel is set to “TruPower” then the Min and Max settings are not available and any Min
or Max settings that may have been made are ignored
Each parameter setting is described below and on screen help also explains each
parameter.
5.10.1 Min Level
Select Config , Channels , select the channel number(s) then Edit and select the Min Level
parameter.
“Min” sets the level of the channel output when the control signal is set to minimum. For example,
setting this value slightly above zero is useful to “Pre-Heat” lamp filaments.
“Min level” is disabled in “Tru Power” mode.
5.10.2 Max Level
Select Config , Channels , select the channel number(s) then Edit and select the Max Level
parameter.
“Max” sets the level of the dimmer output when its control signal is set to maximum. For example,
setting this value to 90% will extend the life of a lamp as it never operates on full voltage or setting it
to 50% provides 115 volt output.
Note: The actual output voltage is dependent upon the dimmer curve. LSC recommends that you
measure the output voltage (with a 240 volt load connected)
to determine the “Max” level setting you
require for a specific maximum voltage. This procedure should only be carried out by suitably
qualified personnel.
“Max level” is disabled in “Tru Power” mode.
5.10.3 Curve
Select Config , Channels , select the channel number(s) then Edit and select the Curve parameter.
Fade Curve
is the curve or “transfer characteristic” between input control signal and dimmer output.
