Fail-safe mode enables the LightCorder to be used as a real-time back-up system if
your DMX controller fails. In this configuration the LightCorder is connected on
the data link and is idle until the DMX signal is not present. If this occurs the
LightCorder will start running its default show (see “Setting the default show” on
page 23) until DMX input form the controller is restored.
Note
If you do not set a default show, the LightCorder will run the
first show on the memory card when active.

to confirm. As long as the LightCorder can detect a DMX signal it

show has been set) in a loop.
