6 Submenu 2 – Merge Modus
After entering the Submenu 2 (MERGE MODE), the following display
appears:
MERGING-MODE:
HTP
Mode 1,
or
MERGING-MODE:
LOW
Mode 2,
or
MERGING-MODE:
LTP
Mode 3
Changes, selections and cancel are performing as described in the
chapter "submenu 1" above.
This configuration can be used to set the standard operating mode of the
device. There are currently 3 different types of functions (MODI)
available:
MODE 0: HTP – HIGHEST TAKES PRECEDENCE
This is the most frequently used mode in practice. Each output channel
receives the value which is the highest of all three inputs. Thus each
input (in each channel) can increase the value up to 100 percent, but a
complete dark regulation is only possible if all input values = 0. In
practice, this allows parallel operation, while simultaneously ensuring a
possible minimum level for each input channel (safety function,
emergency light, through-light, etc.).
MODE 1: LoTP
(display shows: LOW) – LOWEST TAKES
PRECEDENCE
The opposite is of course also possible. This also allows parallel
operation. In this case maximum values can be specified for individual or
all channels, which then cannot be exceeded.
Applications could be for example lamp protection, energy saving as well
as the protection of sensitive art objects from excessive lighting intensity.
MODE 2: LTP
- LATEST TAKES PRECEDENCE
The channel value that was last modified on all 3 inputs always passes to
the output channel. This allows parallel operation WITHOUT a single
input being able to permanently block or restrict the values. This means
that every source has the possibility of sole control. Unfortunately,
lighting jumps may occasionally occur during transfer in this mode.
