In a stand-alone operation mode the fixture is not running connected to a control device, but it is pre-programmed with a series of up
to 24 scenes, playing continuously in a loop. This program can be set up to run by default whenever the fixture is powered on.
Manual control / Internal sequence editor
The editor option offers the ability to adjust all DMX parameters of the fixture. Each scene has its own DMX settings with the possibility
to define a fade-in time for the transition from the previous scene, and a
wait (static) time, each with a fade time up to 4000 seconds and a wait
time up to 4000 seconds.
The 24 scenes can be preset directly from the control menu of the fixture
by using the editor.
Locate the editor by pressing 'OK' in the menu and selecting 'MANUAL'.
The following option will be available:
• Editor
• Run Program
•
Stop Program
•
Run on power on
•
Capture DMX
The editor of the fixture can also capture capture live DMX values, or
the DMX values can be captured from the controller when using the
‘Control Channel’. The 'Control Channel' can be found in the DMX
charts table, available at http://www.sgmlight.com, or upon request via
[email protected].
To set a single static scene, set the fade time of scene 2 to 0.0 seconds,
this will keep the fixture running scene 1.
To make a sequence of up to 24 scenes, set the fade time of the scene following the last one to 0.0 seconds. This will keep the fixture
looping between scene 1 to the scene before the scene with 0.0 seconds fade time.
The copy/paste function offers the ability to create replicas of a previous created scenes.
