Leviton MC 7500 Series Memory Lighting Controllers
PROGRAMMING
General
To initiate programming, first tap the
RECORD
button. This will light the RECORD LED indicating that the program
mode is active. Then tap the function button to be programmed. All programming is stored in nonvolatile memory,
which retains information for at least 10 years, even when power is removed.
Memory Pages
Depending on how the memory is configured, there are 8 or 16 pages of memory. A
page
consists of lighting levels
for all available submasters. The number of pages depends on whether or not the memory is setup to record normal
channels or wide mode channels.
Pages are changed by pressing the LCD function button marked
Page
on the LCD main menu to advance the page,
or by pressing and holding this button while rotating the encoder wheel to change page number up or down. If the
page is changed while a submaster is above minimum or a Submaster Bump button is active, the scene from the
previous page will remain and the Submaster Bump LED will flash amber. The new scene from the new page will
load and the LED will stop flashing when the submaster is reduced to minimum or the bump button is deactivated.
Recording Submasters (memory scenes)
Submasters and Submaster Bump buttons provide access to memory scenes. Recording lighting levels from stage
into Submasters is easy. Press the
RECORD
button followed by pressing the bump button of the Submaster to
record. A memory of what was on stage (minus any levels from chases) will now be stored in that submaster on the
current page.
EXAMPLE: Program the Submaster 1 with channels 1 and 6 at full, and 7 and 8 at 50%
(assumes controller in Submaster Mode (SUBS)).

the LED will stop flashing when the Submaster is reduced to minimum or the bump button is deactivated.
