6.1 Powering on the DigitalSpot 3000 DT
When the fixture is connected to the AC mains supply and the power switch is on, it automatically begins a homing
procedure to verify that all functions of the fixture and its internal projector are in good order.
6.2 Power down mode
This mode omits fixture reset after switching the fixture on and deactivates all motors. The "Power down mode" is
useful in special events e. g. if the fixture is placed in a flight case and you want to set its DMX address without
taking it out from the case.To enter the "Power down mode",press and hold the [ENTER] button and at the same
time switch on the Power switch. Press the [ESC] button to see a notice "Power Down Mode."
Now you can use the fixture menu to set desired behaviour of the unit. If you want to go to the standard
operation mode without switching the fixture off, run total reset of the fixture (menu item
Reset all Systems
).
7. Shutting down the DigitalSpot 3000 DT
There are two recommended ways how to shutdown the fixture:
1
. A DMX controller can switch off the projector lamp and shut down the fixture with the "Lamp Off, Fixture
Off" option on the control channel 8 (see DMX protocol).
2
. The option "Fixture Off" in main menu of DigitalSpot 3000 DT switches off the projector´s lamp and shuts
down the fixture.
After shutting down the fixture switch the power switch on the rear side of the fixture base to the off position in
order to save energy.
Removing power directly without the shutdown procedure
can reduce fixture reliability!
