Page: 24 / 48

In factory state, the device is pre-configured with a virtual dimmer for every [FIXTURE] . This is
useful if you have LED spotlights without their own master dimmer channel and wish to con‐
trol them. In this case, fader 8 [DIMMER] controls the overall intensity of the [RED] , [GREEN] and
[BLUE] channels. You can deactivate this function for every [FIXTURE] and use the fader for
channel 8 as a normal channel fader for a DMX channel of your choice. It is also possible to
change the channel that the virtual dimmer on channel 8 accesses and influences accordingly.
To deactivate the virtual dimmer, proceed as follows:
1.
Hold the [PATCH
½
CLEAR] button down for three seconds.
2.
Select the [FIXTURE] button for fixtures 1 to 8 that you want to deactivate the dimmer
for.
3.
Press and hold the button for fader 8 [DIMMER] for three seconds. To be able to use
channel 8 of this fixture as a regular channel fader, you must now assign it to a DMX
channel. To do this, proceed as described in "Assigning device channels".
ð
In the display, as an example, next to the [FIXTURE] button, the following appears:
‘Fixture01 dimmer Clear ok’ . If the display shows ‘Fixture01 dimmer Set ok’ , the virtual
dimmer for this fixture has already been deactivated. In this case, press and hold the
[DIMMER] button again for three seconds.
4.
Hold the [PATCH
½
CLEAR] button down for three seconds to exit this mode.
