Battery Install
The unit comes ready to go with an installed 9v battery, our compliments. If it is
dead, then it may have turned ON in transit and you will need to replace it. Our
apologies if this is the case. To replace, turn it over, unscrew the four corner screws
on the backplate and carefully replace. BE CAREFUL...IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE
JUST THE AC/DC POWER ADAPTER WITHOUT THE BATTERY INSTALLED, BE
SURE TO TAPE OVER THE TERMINALS SO AS NOT TO CAUSE A SHORT
CIRCUIT TO THE MOTHERBOARD FROM THE BATTERY LEADS. We recommend
keeping a new battery in the unit at all times or regardless of charge, unless the
battery is too old and leaks, of course. Also, be very careful with the backplate and
the DATA cord during this procedure. The Battery lives in a clip on the backplate.
Patch
Turn the unit ON. Switch into PATCH mode. Display will read Dimmer 001. Using the
NEXT or LAST buttons, choose the dimmer you wish to patch. Press one of the
chosen BUMP buttons under a slider and you have now patched that dimmer to that
slider. Continue the process as much as you like. All 512 dimmers could go to one
slider, if you choose. Also,
holding down
the NEXT or LAST button will stream
through the dimmers. Holding down UNPATCH or holding down a BUMP button
simultaneously, will PATCH or UNPATCH thru all selected dimmers as long as you
hold down the buttons.
When in PATCH mode, the LED under the slider will only light if the selected
dimmer is patched to that slider. This is all the LED indicators are for. THEY ARE
NOT SLIDER LEVEL OR BUMP INDICATORS.
When in PATCH mode, the unit will still send DMX and the changes will be
instantaneous if you have sliders up on the panel. Holding down the NEXT or LAST
buttons will stream through the dimmers slowly at first and then VERY QUICKLY,
just like on an LED based alarm clock.
