Automatic test
The test function allows you to verify LED performance quickly from the control panel. All LEDS are first
set to 100 percent. LEDs are then tested together by color (200 & 210 models), or color temperature (220
model). Finally, each LED is tested individually.
To run the automatic test from the control panel, access the control menu, select AUTOMATIC TEST and
press ENTER. Press MENU to end the test.
Fixture status
LED temperature, hours, and software version are available from the FIXTURE STATUS menu or RDM.
Fixture config
The FIXTURE CONFIG menu contains additional settings for customizing behavior.
Master/slave
Fixtures operating in stand-alone mode can be linked in a chain for master/slave operation. In this mode,
one fixture, the master, controls the other fixtures, the slaves, which fully mimic the master.
Exterior Wash fixtures that use the same color LEDs as their light source can be linked together in
master/slave operation. In other words, Exterior Wash 100, 200 and 300 fixtures can be linked together,
110, 210 and 310 fixtures can be linked together, and 120, 220 and 320 can be linked together.
Set all the fixtures except one as slaves. If more than one fixture acts as master, you may cause damage
that is not covered by the product warranty.
To operate fixtures in master/slave
mode, the fixtures must be connected as described under ‘Control data
link
’ on page 15. The master fixture must be programmed to run a stand-alone routine as described under
‘Programming a standalone show’ on page 17.
Note that if a fixture is set as master it will not respond to DMX and RDM signals. To control the fixture via
DMX or communicate with the fixture via RDM, set the fixture to slave again.
If no controller is connected to the link, performance may be improved by terminating the data input of the
first fixture.
Enable master/slave operation as follows:
1. On each fixture, access the control menu and select FIXTURE CONFIG. Press ENTER.
2. Select DMX STATE and press ENTER.
3. Select SHOW MODE and press ENTER.
4. Select MASTER/SLAVE from FIXTURE CONFIG menu and press ENTER.
5. The default setting is SLAVE. On one fixture only, select MASTER and press ENTER. Press MENU to
exit.
6. On all other fixtures, select MASTER/SLAVE and confirm that they are set to SLAVE. Press MENU to
exit.
7. Verify that no DMX control signal is present.
