The Backup Scenes - Leviton i Series e User Manual

To disable the scene from being re-recorded accidentally, disconnect the T/C termination between the
analog station(s) and the dimmer rack(s). The wire can be moved from T/C to the blank termination next
to T/C. It's a good idea to put a T/C label on the wire.
When any analog input is active [ above 6% ], the ANALOG LED on the control module will light up.

The Backup Scenes

Recording and Activating backup scenes requires a Hand Held Remote. 100 timed backup scenes (00
through 99) can be recorded and activated using the Hand Held Remote connected to the HHR remote port
on TB2 of the backplane. Refer to section 4 for more HHT remote mode operational details.
To record backup looks:
All 6 of the HHR connections on TB2 (HHTXD,HHTXD-,HHRXD,HHRXD-,HH+12V,GND) need to be
daisy chained between racks before they are run to the remote receptacle location(s). Only one HHR
may be plugged into the system at a time.
Each of the control modules first needs to have a unique rack and control module position identity
assigned to it. This is accomplished by plugging into each control module, which places the control
module in LOCAL mode. Then press [CONFIG RACK],[RACK],[CONFIG RACK], and enter in the
associated rack and control module locations in the system. Rack #'s must begin at rack 1 upper (^)
control module. The [UP] keyswitch selects the upper or "^" control module and the [DOWN]
keyswitch selects the lower or "v" control module.
You must have a rack 1 upper control module assigned in the system as this is the module that does
most of the talking in the REMOTE mode.
It is a good idea at this point to check and/or edit the other parameters within the Rack Configuration
menu like the DMX dropout hold time.
When all the settings have been completed, plug into a remote receptacle location. The best location
would be at the control booth.
Bring up the desired scene on the console.
Press [REC LOOK] twice on the HHR.
Enter the look number and fade time for the true dipless cross fade.
Press [ENTER] twice.
The [UP] key will increment to the next look #.
The [DOWN] will decrement to the previous look #.
The [ENTER] key will step through entry fields.
The [BACK] softkey will escape back to the previous entry field or menu.
Press the [BACK] softkey as many times as necessary to return to the main menu when complete.
To play backup looks:
Plug the HHR into a remote receptacle location.
From the main menu, or after plugging the HHR into the receptacle station and after HHR boot, press
the [GO TO LOOK] key twice.
Enter the # of the desired look you wish to fade to. Note that the backup looks will HTP pile-onto all the
active analog scenes, the panic scene if activated, and the active DMX-512 scene.
Press [GO] to begin the true dipless crossfade sequence.
During the crossfade, if the [STOP/REV] is pressed once, the cross fade will pause (stop).
To continue the crossfade press [GO].
To reverse the crossfade press [STOP/REV].
The control modules will auto-increment to the next scene on completion of the cross fade.
Press [GO] to execute the next crossfade, or [ENTER] to change the next scenes fade time, or completely
change the next backup look # .
