Other LCD Display Features
LCD Menu Battery Operation
The LCD menu system utilizes a battery powered system for operation when the luminaire is not connected to power. The primary purpose of
this mode is to allow basic setup and configuration of the luminaire.
To enable the battery operation of the menu system:
Step 1. Press and hold [ESC] and [OK] for two seconds.
Step 2. Once enabled, the menu will function as normal with only the following sub-menu sections active:
• Address
• Configure
• Setup
• DMX
• Fixture
Note: Any commands that require full power (calibrate, lamp strike, etc.) will be ignored while the menu system is in battery operation
mode.
Step 3. To exit battery mode, press and hold [ESC] and [OK] for two seconds. Note, luminaire will automatically exit this mode after
one minute of inactivity .
Status Bar
The Status Bar (as illustrated in Figure 13 ) is present at all times and displays luminaire
operational information of the luminaire. The Status Bar contains the following
information:
•
LAMP – indicates current lamp state - ON or OFF.
• SHDN – indicates shutdown time in hours. NO indicates no shutdown time.
ERRORS – Displays a number indicating the total amount of current errors; can
cycle through short text descriptions of each error. Example: “Pan” or “Gobo1”.
When errors are present, messages will appear in red text. When no errors are
present, NO will display.
• ADDR – Displays the current DMX address for the fixture. NOTE, when the
fixture does not detect a DMX input signal, the DMX address text will display in
red text.
LCD Menu Proximity Sensor
The LCD menu system uses a proximity sensor to automatically enable the menu display (turn on the backlight) as you reach for the front
panel. If the display is off, it will turn on when your hand is within a few inches of the display. Note, when the luminaire is not connected to
power and the LCD menu is operating on battery, this proximity sensor is disabled.
