Chase effects
This section describes each of the 31 internal chase
effects that are selectable either via the control menu
(
PROG
>
C1
/
C2
>
EFEC
) or using DMX values sent
from an external source. To use the internal effects, set
the
MODE
option either to
EF M
(to control effects via
the menu) or

Chase effects and master intensity channel layouts
The table below shows how the chase effects and master intensity controls are
mapped to DMX channels for each mode. Mode
DMX
does not use chase effects.
The first channel of the fixture occurs at the DMX address selected using
ADDR
and successive channels for the fixture follow from there.
MAX1
,
EF D
and
EX61
are legacy modes which do not provide the best performance. You are recom-
mended to use
MAX2
for combined RGB colour mixing and chase effect control.

Note
When using
DMX
mode for colour mixing (no chase effects possible) and the
MINT
option is enabled, ensure that the
PERS
>
RES
option is set to
3CH
. This
will ensure that the master intensity channel occurs immediately after the red,
green and blue control channels, at channel 4.
Using the control menu
•
When not in the menu, the four digit display shows
the current DMX address e.g.
A001
• Press to enter the menu. The four digit display will
show
ADDR
.
• Use and to move between menu options (or to
change a value within an option).
• Press to enter an option (or to fix a changed value
within an option and return to the previous option level).
Note: If you do not press to fix a value, operation will
revert to the previously set mode at the next power on.
• Press to exit from a menu option (and eventually
exit the menu completely).
General notes
•
Ensure that only one DMX device
in the chain is set as master (e.g.
the lighting desk). This fixture is
usually set to slave mode
• This fixture is shipped with the
DMX address set to
001
.
• If the fixture is used as a master,
DMX transmission will only occur
when the DMX address is dis-
played (e.g.
A001
,
A002
, etc).
• The four digit display can be set to
fade out after 60 seconds, press
to resume. To alter this mode:
