The Status LED will blink rapidly notifying you the desired bit setting has been
saved.
Filament Fade:
An incandescent lamp has a slight delay, or lag with changing intensities,
whereas an LED responds instantly. The difference is most noticeable during a
theatrical black out. The Pica CUBE™ can emulate an incandescent lamp by
selecting one of the FIlament Fade settings.
To change the Filament Fade Setting switch the mode to SERIAL mode. Once
in Serial Mode you will hold the
TOGGLE
button until the status LED blinks
rapidly. Then rotate the KNOB to desired Filament Fade setting as follows
(0 = off, 1 = low, 2 = medium, 3 = high). Press
MODE
to save and exit. Then
change back to DMX Mode.
