DMX’ light will come on depending on the
setting of the Mode Switch on the rear panel.
If a DMX signal is present, the Contour will
output the preheat levels for 2 seconds and
then jump to the levels set by the DMX signal.
If no DMX input signal is present:
In DMX ONLY mode, the DMX ONLY light
flashes slowly, and the Contour will output the
pre programmed preheat levels only.

output the higher of any analogue inputs or the
pre programmed preheat levels.
The green lights above each channel button
vary in brightness to indicate the channel level.
