Dimmer Operation 4-1
Revision 0.1 – 3 June 1999 FP12 DIMMER USER MANUAL
4.0 Dimmer Operation
This section assumes the dimmer has been correctly connected to three phase power and
a source of DMX-512 control signal.
4.1 Operating modes
The FP12 has two operating modes:
1. DMX mode: the dimmer is controlled from an external DMX-512 control
console,
2. Test mode: the dimmer is controlled by the internal microprocessor.
4.1.1 DMX mode
In this mode, the DMX Bank Select switches are used to select which bank of 12
channels from the 43 possible DMX-512 banks will control the FP12.
See Table 4.1 (below) for a list of banks and their corresponding Channels.
Decide which bank of channels is required, and rotate the selector switches to the
desired setting. For example, if DMX Channels 25 to 36 are desired (ie. bank 3), set
selectors to “03”. FP12 Channel #1 is now DMX Channel #25. A FP12 with this
setting ignores DMX Channels 1 to 24 and 37 to 512, and only decodes Channels 25 to
36 as it’s dimmer information.
Setting the Selectors to “00” puts the dimmer in a standby state, with all channels off.

4.1.2 Test mode
In this mode, the FP12’s internal controller is used to drive the dimmer channels. It is
accessed by setting the Selector switches to banks between “44” and “99”. No DMX
control is necessary, but a control signal may be left connected if desired.
