SCENE 7
CONTINUOUS DMX TRANSMISSION
SR516 will continue to send DMX string at 0 values
with no DMX input or no scenes active rather than no
DMX signal output
SCENE 8
DMX FAST TRANSMIT
Reduces the DMX interslot time to increase the DMX
transmission rate.
CONTROLLING EXCLUSIVE SCENE ACTIVATION
During normal operation multiple scenes can be active
at the same time. Channel intensities for multiple
scenes will combine in a "greatest of" manner.
You can cause a scene or multiple scenes to operate in
an exclusive manner by making them part of a
mutually exclusive group.
There are four groups which can be set. If scenes are
part of a group then only one scene in the group can
be active at any given time.
Other scenes (not part of that group) can be on at the
same time as scenes in a group.
Unless you are going to set one or two simple groups
of non-overlapping scenes you may want to
experiment with the settings to get different effects.

routed to the DMX OUT connector.
