Stand Alone programming
In permanent installations for architectural use, it may be necessary to use Genio Mobile fixtures in Stand-
Alone mode (with independent operation). This is very useful when the fixture has to run relatively simple
scenes over a period of time, without the aid of an external DMX controller, which could be difficult for
inexperienced staff to operate. The simplification of Genio Mobile’s operation ensures greater flexibility of
use, even with important installations of a decorative-architectural nature. Each Genio Mobile can therefore
be programmed by means of 2 Programs, each with 10 scenes which are completely adjustable as far as
times and modes are concerned.
The “Scheduler” section also allows to organize the playback of programs already prepared on a weekly
basis (day by day from Monday to Sunday), deciding the start and finish time of playback of the Program.
Each day can obviously contain several events, for a maximum of 48 per week.
Should the installation involve a large number of fixtures, it’s possible to create a completely independent
programmable MASTER-SLAVE type system, which can involve a maximum of 30 fixtures. In this case, it
will only be necessary to program the MASTER (main) fixture, and all the fixtures connected to it will ruin
the same program if configured as SLAVES. During Master programming, it’s also possible to store various
luminous statuses for several fixtures within each scene of the program. Each on-board Master program is
therefore also able to individually control all the SLAVE fixtures scene by scene.
Everything is obviously controllable by means of the Scheduler, which enables the system controller to
automate all the events as required over a period of time without having to resort to external controllers
every time.

Progamming Genio Mobile
ATTENTION
:
Genio Mobile programming is possible if the fixture isn’t receiving a DMX 512 or RS 232
signal.
Make certain that the fixture is not receiving DMX 512 or RS 232 signals and configure Genio Mobile as a
“MASTER” (see.
“Master Configuration“
in the previous chapter).
Follow the steps described now for the programming:
Once Master status is enabled, “MASTER” appears on the display.
Step 1 – CHOOSING THE PROGRAM NUMBER
1.
Use the UP/DOWN keys to find the “PROGRAMMER” menu
2.
Press “Enter” for a few seconds, until the following appears: “PROGRAM=1”
3.
If it is necessary to create a program other than number 1, press “Enter”
again and “PROGRAM=” will begin to flash
4.
Use the UP/DOWN keys to choose the required program number from 1 to 2,
then Press “Enter” to exit the PROGRAM menu and confirm.
Step 2 – CHOOSING THE SCENE NUMBER
1.
Use the UP key to pass to the “SCENE=1” menu
2.
If it is necessary to create a program other than number 1, press “Enter”
again and “SCENE=” will begin to flash
3.
Use the UP/DOWN keys to choose the required scene number from 1 to 10,
then Press “Enter” to exit the SCENE menu and confirm.
