Operating Guide

Dimmer Operation

After unpacking, check for any obvious faults or defects. If any are apparent, return the unit to the place of
purchase.

Unwrap the power cord and plug into a GPO. Plug four lamps into the four output sockets and switch the
power on at the wall and the rear panel. Advance the 

Master

 fader and a channel fader. The mimic LED

for that channel will light, at an intensity corresponding to the lamp connected to that channel.

The 

Master

 fader provides overall control over all four output channels, and also provides level control for

the chaser.

The 

Flash

 buttons below the channel faders will always flash to full irrespective of the 

Master

 level.

To operate the chaser, advance the 

Master

 fader, and press the 

Chaser On

 switch. The Chase rate is

adjustable from zero to maximum by the 

Rate

 fader on the left. To disable the chaser, press 

Chaser On

again.

If desired, the chaser can be triggered by audio sound levels at the 

. With the chaser on, press

the 

Audio

 switch. In the absence of any sound, the chaser will now step at a rate determined by the rate

control as before. Any loud sounds will be detected by the internal microphone and advance the chaser
accordingly.

Both the 

Chaser

 and 

Audio

 functions have LED indicators showing when each function is on.

Note that at no time should the total load on the 

 exceed 2400Watts. If this occurs, the overload

circuit breaker will trip. Take the 

Master

 to zero before resetting the overload circuit breaker. This

maximum power (2400W at 240V AC) may be supplied by one channel, or any combination of channels.

For example: If four 2400W lamps were connected to the four outputs, only one could ever be fully on at
any one time. Eight 300W lights (such as PAR 56s) may be run continuously at "full" without risk of
overload.

Maintenance

With care, the 

 will require little or no maintenance. Covering the unit while not in use prevents

entry of dust into the faders, increasing their useful life. This also minimises the risk of entry of liquids inside
the chassis, which would be both damaging to the unit and dangerous to the operator. During cleaning, do
not spray directly onto the unit, but onto a rag and wipe clean.
