22 General operation
Automatic lamp-on
When enabled, this will strike the lamp automatically within 90 seconds of
applying power to the fixture. By default this is set to
O f f .
Display
Turn off the display 2 minutes after the last key press or leave it on. This
setting will be overridden by error and warning messages. By default this
option is on.
Store remote status (SrS)
This SRS option is only relevant when you are using the optional infrared
remote control and receiver. If SRS is:
• On (default), and you start or stop the programmed show using the IR
remote control, the fixture will additionally be set to automatically start or
stop the show next time it is powered on.
• Off, the IR remote control has no influence over the automatic starting of a
programmed show at power-on. This is controlled by the S A / R u n
menu (see “Starting show playback” on page 33).
Enable lamp off control from an MC-X
When using an MC-X control device to select and run scenes, button 7 can
be used to turn the lamp off. By default this option is off.
The lamp must be allowed to cool for at least 6 minutes after turning it off
before it can be re-struck. A 6-minute hot-restrike delay is programmed into
the Imager software from the time that the light is extinguished, or the power
is switched off, to ensure that this occurs. If you attempt to strike the lamp
and do not succeed the fixture will reattempt to strike itself after 6 minutes
(and a hot lamp warning/error will appear in the display), unless you issue
the lamp off command. If the fixture fails these two attempts to strike, the
lamp will be assumed to be defective and the LE (lamp error) message will
appear.
Errors and warnings message toggle
This enables error and warning messages to be suppressed. This enables,
for example, the continued programming of a fixture that has a non-critical
error. The default setting is On, which means that errors messages will not
be suppressed and can be seen, when active, at the top level of the control
menu structure.
