Running Parameter Tests
The luminaire is capable of running self tests by using the TEST menu functions. For complete details
and values for each test refer to
When running tests on multiple luminaires, a DMX termination connector is required at the last
luminaire in the link. (Refer to
connector.)
Note: There is a known issue with all versions of code for the Series 550 Wash Luminaire concerning
the "Test" menu options. Issues arose when running a test from one Series 550 Wash Luminaire to
multiple Series 550 Wash Luminaires (of a different type) across the VL550 Wash platform. To
alleviate this, when testing in groups, only test same Lamp Type luminaires (for example: VL550 wash
[120V/1200W tungsten] wash with other VL550 wash [120V/1200W tungsten] lights, etc.). The issue,
described above, does not pose any problems when operating Series 550 Wash Luminaires during
normal operation under DMX control.
