Description 

4.1 Operating 

mode 

The 3 possible operating modes are described below: 

 

 

4.1.1 

Analog input mode  

DIP1=OFF / DIP2=OFF 

All LEDs of a spotlights are controlled with the same intensity. The intensity can be set 

via the standard signal input 

. They are enabled via the "START/STOP" input 

according to the setting on dip switch 3 (latching/momentarily).  
 

4.1.2 

DMX mode  DIP1=ON / DIP2=OFF 

RGBW LEDs of a spotlights are controlled according to DMX. They are enabled via the 
"START/STOP" input according to the setting on dip switch 3 (latching/momentarily).  
 

4.1.3 

Piezo mode  

DIP1=OFF / DIP2=OFF 

RGBW-LEDs of a spotlights are controlled according to the program selection. They are 
enabled via the "START/STOP" input according to the setting on dip switch 3 
(latching/momentarily). 

The program is selected via the keying pulse at the "COLOR" input. 
The following programs are stored: 

 

Program 

2 3 4 5 6 7 

Colour Turquoise 

Red  Yellow 

Green 

 

Light 
blue 

Dark 
blue  

Colour 
gradient 

 

For the colour gradient, the colours are selected in sequence 1-6 one after the other.  
The idle time per colour is 120 sec and the fade time is 20 sec. 

 

The RGB lighting of the sensor button connected to connection 8 shows the currently 
selected colour. In this case, the RGB lighting of the button flashes to indicate the 
selection of the colour gradient program.  
For a sensor button with single-colour lighting, the button lighting is briefly dimmed when 
the colour change button is pressed if the dip switch is set accordingly. 

 

Notice:

 Rotary and dip switches 12 and 13 are read in once when the device is started. 

A change of switch positions during operation is therefore not accepted until the next 
device start.
