Tegra 4Bank DMX Lamp Sequence
If a fixture loses its DMX signal, it will hold its last DMX command.
For this reason, it is important to turn a fixture off using the DMX commands.
For example, if you try to turn off the lights by turning off the dimmer board,
the lights will remember their last DMX command and stay on. The fixtures
require a DMX “Off” or “Black-Out” command in order to turn off.
Note:
The Tegra ballast board incorporates a preheat circuit when striking
the lamps. Therefore, when fading up from black, there will be a 2-3 second
response delay. One way to avoid this issue is to lower the light level to
approximately 7-10% on the DMX console, then fade up from that point.
