addressing also allows the fixture to ignore any DMX information coming from the

controller that is not meant specifically for the fixture. Because each fixture is connected

in a daisy-chain fashion it is imperative to assign a proper and unique starting DMX

address to each and every fixture. The DMX address is non-destructive and will remain

in the fixture's memory even when the power to the unit is switched off. Memory is

backed-up and retain by an internal power source that should last about five years. For

proper DMX addressing see "DMX Addressing" on page 23 of this user manual.

"VALU" - Display the DMX 512 value of each channel

With this function you can display the DMX 512 value of each channel. The display

will automatically detail the changing DMX values as they are received from the

controller.

"SLAV" - Slave setting for Master/Slave Operation

With this function, you can define the device as slave for operation in Master/Slave

mode. Each slave setting will have a different function for a dynamic lightshow

without a controller.

"RDMX" - Address via DMX - This function allows the DMX address to

remotely be adjusted from a DMX console. This setting requires special settings for

both the controller and the fixture. RDMX is on by default. For operational

instructions please see Section 9/Page 23 of this manual "Remote DMX

addressing."

<RUN> - Internal Program Settings

This function allows the internal programs to run in either stand-alone or master/salve

mode. In "Master" mode the fixture will send DMX data to other fixtures connect via the

DMX chain. In "Alone" mode the fixture will operate as a single fixture. The program for

this mode is selected in the "Select program" section of the control menu. You can set

the number of steps under "Edit program". You can edit the individual scenes under

"Edit scenes". With this function, you can run the individual scenes either automatically,

i.e. with the adjusted Step-Time.
