HYDRA PLUS – LT LIGHT
Example : A console is controlling channels (1-200), and other console ( Hydra Plus ) is
controlling spots and some channels (201-350). If the output of the first console is
connected to Hydra Plus, and
ADD TO DMX 1
is selected, all the channels (1-350) are
sent by the DMX-1 output.
5: RUN MACROS
The channels of the DMX input execute macros (maximum 512). When the input
channel exceeds its 5%, the corresponding macro is executed (the correspondence
between channels and macros is 1 to 1, channel 1-macro 1, channel 2-macro2, and so on).
6: ADD TO STAGE (Spots)
Permits us to use the DMX input to control a maximum of 512 spot parameters (the first
512 system parameters). The parameters values that be read from the DMX input are
presented in a blue filed. To capture their levels in the editor, press
CALL CALL
(also
it’s possible to use
CALL REC
).
Note: Also the parameters at 0% are captured from the DMX input in this mode. Tip:
Use the
SM
as control of
DMX IN
when this mode is selected.
SM
Allows you to configure the behavior of
SM
that can work as masters-control or as DMX input-
control. Also
SM
is configured.
To configure
SM
enter the index number of the appropriate option.
CONVERT
Allows you set the conversion type to use with the levels of the Dmx Input.
0: (0-255)->(0-255)
It is a lineal conversion, 1:1.
1: (0-1, 2-255)->(0, 2-255)
It is a special conversion where the levels received as 01 as
translated as 00. This conversion allows the compatibility with some consoles that send the level
of 01 for the inactive channels (conceptually at 0%).
