Display
The illuminated graphic LCD display with self-charging battery lets you change fixture
settings even when the power is off. See Chapters 7 and 8 for more details.
Using the
Control / Settings DMX channel or the fixture’s control panel you can:
•
Change the display orientation from Normal to Inverted for easier reading if the
fixture is flown upside-down in a rig.
•
Choose between three different display modes:
-
Auto : The display will automatically switch off after a few seconds if the fixture is
receiving a valid control signal and has not detected an error. If the fixture is not
receiving a valid control signal the display will flash. If the fixture has detected an
error, the display will remain constantly on and show the error.
-
On : The display stays on constantly. This setting can be useful when you are
configuring or servicing the fixture.
-
Off : The display will automatically switch off after a few seconds even if the fixture is
not receiving a valid control signal or if it has detected an error.
Fan modes
Four different cooling fan modes are available on the Control / Settings DMX channel
and in the fixture’s control panel. The modes let you choose cooling fan operation
options depending on how you want to allocate priority between light output and fan
noise:
•
Regulated mode gives priority to light output and only operates fans as necessary. If
the fixture is blacked out, fans run at minimum speed. When light output intensity is
increased, temperature regulation increases fan speed to the level necessary to
keep the fixture at optimum temperature.
If light output is set to maximum intensity but the fans can keep the fixture at
optimum temperature, there will be no regulation of light intensity. If the fixture
begins to exceed optimum temperature, light intensity will be reduced until
optimum temperature can be maintained.
•
High mode sets fans to constant high speed. This mode is optimized for maximum
light output and suits operation in high ambient temperatures and/or where fan
noise is not a critical issue. Light output intensity is smoothly reduced if it becomes
necessary in order to keep fixture temperature at optimum level.
Besides maximizing light output in high ambient temperatures, you can use
high
mode to cool down a fixture quickly or to remove dust from cooling fans.
•
Medium mode sets fans to constant medium speed. Light output intensity is
smoothly reduced if it becomes necessary in order to keep fixture temperature at
optimum level.
If you want to avoid any automatic reductions in output intensity that may occur in
regulated mode (see above) or if fixture temperature exceeds optimum level, we
recommend that you use medium mode in combination with one of the Output
limitation levels available via DMX and in the fixture’s control panel to keep the
fixture in output/temperature balance.
