Set DMX Mode
The VL2000 Series luminaires provide four modes for DMX operation. The mode is
set using the luminaire’s Menu Display.
• 8-bit Standard - provides one 8-bit DMX channel for control of each luminaire
function.
• 8-bit Enhanced - provides additional channels for timing control.
• 16-bit Standard - provides 16-bit control for pan/tilt.
• 16-bit Enhanced (default) - provides 16-bit control for pan/tilt and additional
channels for timing control.
To set the mode:
1. Press [Menu].
2. Press [Up] or [Down] button until
DMX
appears. Press [Enter].
3. Press [Up] or [Down] to until desired mode is reached (

. Press [Enter] to set mode.
See “DMX Modes” on page 29 for more information.
Note: Which mode is used may also be determined by the profile available in the
DMX control console. For best control, response, smoothest movement and transi-
tions, the 16-bit Enhanced mode is recommended. The 8-bit modes are supported for
older style consoles with a limited number of DMX channels available, and if profiles
are not supported. The 16-bit mode is supported for DMX consoles that do not provide
access to the timing channels through either their architecture or their profiles. For
more information see
“Luminaire Timing Channel Information” on page 36 .
