MERGE/REPLACE
If the unit is set to merge the selected start address and block length will merge
HTP onto any existing DMX levels coming into the unit.
If set to replace any incoming DMX levels are ignored within the start address and
block length and only the F451 flicker levels are transmitted in that DMX space.
STORE SETTINGS
The F451 retains all the settings on power down but in addition the unit has eight
memories.

UP button will toggle between the two.
Proportional Limit
The maximum random level is proportionally controlled from maximum level – like
a master fader on a lighting desk. So if the maximum level is set for 50% a random
word generated at 100% will be transmitted at 50% and a random word generated
