Page 7 Accessory Mounting Spigots The three spigots on the front face of ANOVA are used to mount the ‘Gel Frame Holder’ (lower position) using three ‘Ball Lock Pins’ , and the upper mounting position is used to mount optional accessories for the ANOVA, e.g. Honeycomb Louver, SoftBox, Focussing Fresnel Filter (Available separately).

Page 9 Control Mode Anova offers a range of control methods: Local Control Displayed as LOCL, this mode allows control via the backplate encoder knob and switch. DMX Control This mode allows control via a DMX device wired through the DMX input. In addition, ANOVA can be set to act as a DMX Master Controller and convert incoming wireless signals to DMX via the selected DMX -bri (brightness channel #) and –col (colour channel #).
Page 10
Page 10 To operate the ANOVA via the selected DMX channels you must also select CNTL – dmx from the control menu. To summarise, you can set the channels for DMX control of brightness and colour in the DMX Menu. You can also activate DMX Master Mode, which in turn will automatically activate the WIFI system.

Page 11 We apologise if this PIN process seems a little complicated, but a lot is happening here, e.g., you are setting a specific wifi channel for your ANOVA network, by setting the same PIN you are identifying which lights will be networked together, the WEP is protecting you from unwanted interference from Audiences/Hackers, and finally if you need to have multiple ANOVA networks this is easily possible using the PIN system.
