Super User Operation
Introduction
The Lightmaster XLS desk has a range of options
which are accessed in Super User mode.
Whilst in Super User, Presets A and B work
normally; Memory, Sequence and Midi functions
are disabled.
The principal options are:
Memory Card Storage
Set individual channels for Strobe operation
Set individual channels for Full Level
operation
Setting 1990 DMX / original DMX
Setting DMX for 96 or 512 channels
Inverting Master B fader
Clearing all the memories
Resetting DMX, Midi and channel settings
To access Super User:
1
Turn Mode switch to Preset.
2
Press and hold down the Memory Page + and
- buttons together, then turn the Mode switch
to Run; release both buttons.
The Memory Page display shows SU; the
Step No display shows the software version
number.
To exit Super User:
Turn Mode switch back to Preset.
Memory Card Storage
The Zero 88 Memory Card may be inserted at
any time in the slot at the back of the desk in the
middle.
The Card will store all the memories of a
Lightmaster XLS. It should NOT be left in the
desk when the desk is switched off as there is a
risk that the battery in the card will run down
more quickly.
The same card is used for the Sirius 24, Sirius 48
and Lightmaster XL but the information stored is
NOT interchangeable.
