DMX Filter
In order to minimise the possibility of incorrect triggering of the Salamander through DMX, the
software contains a DMX data filter. This will cause a small delay in the unit’s response to DMX
commands (approximately 75ms.) In practical terms, this delay should be too short to have any
effect on functionality, however it is possible to disable the DMX filter if this is desired.
Warning:
If the Salamander is operated with the DMX filter disabled, the manufacturer will
not be held responsible for any unexpected behaviour under DMX control.
To disable the DMX filter:
1.
With all DMX cables unplugged, press SELECT until
doF
is displayed.
2.
Press STORE / VIEW and UP at the same time.

While

Tilt Switch
The Salamander contains a safety tilt switch that will disable the unit if it is tipped beyond 40
degrees from vertical. This will prevent the unit from operating should it be knocked over. It is
possible to disable this tilt-switch if desired.
Warning:
The Salamander is only designed to be used in a vertical position. If the unit is to
be used in any other position, it is the sole responsibility of the user to ensure safe
operation.
To disable the tilt switch:
1.
With all DMX cables unplugged, press SELECT until
doF
is displayed.

Press STORE / VIEW and UP at the same time.
