PROGRAMMING OF INDIVIDUAL PARAMETERS

The programming of individual parameters allows for assigning any DMX address to each output 

channel. The simplest example is to control the lightness of LEDs of the same colour plugged into 

all output channels of the driver.

In this situation, assign the same address (e.g. 1) to channels from 1 to 3, and now using one 

slider on the control panel or changing one DMX value we will trigger a reaction on each of the 

three channels.

To program individual settings:
1. Go to the 

Ind

 tab.

2. Go to the settings of the first output marked as 

Ad1

.

3. Use the "next" or "previous" buttons to set a value from 1 up to 512.
4. Set the address for the remaining outputs (by default successive 

values are set from value 1 for the first output to value 7 for the 
seventh).

9. LIGHT CONTROL FREQUENCY

The 

Frq

 function allows for setting the base control frequency for the LEDs. This function is 

extremely useful in applications for the television industry. The use of "flicker free" technology 
enables you to avoid an unpleasant effect of screen flickering caused by too low frequency of the 
PWM signal that controls the LEDs.

The user has access to a frequency range of 366 Hz up to 1.5 kHz.
The  frequency  value  in  the  upper  range  (i.e.  1.50  =  1.5  kHz)  makes  it  possible  to  avoid  the 
flickering effect visible in the video image.

ENTER

To set the selected range of base frequencies:

1. Go to the 

Frq

 tab.

2. Using the "next" or "previous" buttons set the selected value.

3. Confirm your selection by pressing "enter".

SCREEN TIMEOUT

The device has been equipped with an option to turn off the LED display backlight. If the 

SCr

 

option is activated, the display will be turned off after 1 minute of idle work (keys are not used). 
The device continues to work without interfering with other parameters. To restore backlight, use 
any key.

If a mode which does not use all channels is set, the unused channels have 
addresses equal to
