Element QA has 5 DMX modes: 4 channel mode, 5 channel mode,
6 channel mode, 9 channel mode, and 10 channel mode. See pages

Operating Instructions Element QA

DMX State:

This mode can be used as a precaution mode, that in case the DMX
signal is lost, the operating mode chosen in the setup is the running
mode the fixture will go into when the DMX signal is lost. You can also
set this as the operating mode you would like the unit to return to when
power is applied.
1. Plug the fixture in and press the MODE button until "d.XXX" is dis-
played. "XXX" represents the current displayed DMX address.
2. Press the SET UP button so that "nodn" is displayed. Use the UP
and DOWN buttons to scroll through the DMX states.
• "bLAC" (Blackout) - If the DMX signal is lost or interrupted,
the unit will automatically go into stand by mode.
• "LASt" (Last State) - If the DMX signal is lost or interrupted,
the fixture will stay in the last DMX set up. If power is applied and
this mode is set, the unit will automatically go into the last DMX set
up.

the unit will automatically go into Auto Run mode.
