A channel must be set to the “NonDim” curve before “Auto Power” can be selected as
the “Source”.
If a channel is set to “NonDim” then the Min and Max settings are not available and
any Min or Max settings that may have been made are ignored.
Each parameter setting is described below and on screen
?
(Help) also explains each
parameter.
3.7.1
Min Level
“Min” sets the level of the channel output when the control signal is set to minimum. For
example, setting this value slightly above zero is useful to “Pre-Heat” lamp filaments.
3.7.2
Max Level
“Max” sets the level of the dimmer output when its control signal is set to maximum. For
example, setting this value to 90% will extend the life of a lamp as it never operates on full
voltage or setting it to 50% provides 115 volt output.
3.7.3
Curve
Fade Curve is the curve or “transfer characteristic” between input control signal and dimmer
output. The following curves are available;
S curve
Linear curve
Non Dim
When a channel is set to “Non Dim”, the channel will switch from OFF to full ON when the
control signal is raised above 60% and when the level drops below 40%, the channel will
switch OFF. “NonDim” is used for devices that do not fade, but need to be switched OFF or
ON such as motors or discharge lamps. Min and Max level are not available when Non Dim is
selected. GenVI “Non Dim” output provides direct power by utilising relays guaranteeing there
are absolutely no electronics in the circuit to interfere with connected loads.
3.7.4
Source
The GenVI channels can be
individually configured
to be controlled by either:
DMX only
. When configured for “DMX Only” a channel is controlled from a DMX
lighting controller.
Auto Power
. Channels configured for “Auto Power” are used to provide power to non-
dimmable fixtures whenever the lighting controller is switched on and hence a DMX
signal is detected on the input to the GenVI. When “Auto Power” is enabled (see section
3.8.4), channels configured for “Auto Power” will be
automatically
switched ON at full
