Control Channel Functions
Control channel functions allow special actions such as reset, lamp on/off and partial recalibration.
These must be executed with zero time transition or with timing disabled. Discrete values must be
used; not manual controls such as faders or encoders (see chart below for values).
WARNING:
Light Beam Projects Intense Heat
Do not illuminate objects within 3.5 m (11.5 feet) of the VL3500™ Wash Luminaire. Objects within
this range can scorch, melt, or ignite from the heat projected by the light beam.
Reset
- resets all luminaire mechanisms.
Lamp On or Lamp Off
- switches lamp on or off.
Partial Recalibration
- resets only the target mechanism (color, zoom, etc.) without affecting others.
* These functions do not require the 3 second rule to execute. Simply set to the desired function value.
