Running Parameter Tests

The luminaire is capable of running self tests by using the TEST menu functions.
When running tests on multiple luminaires, a loopback connector is required at the
master luminaire (first in link) and a male termination connector is required at the last
luminaire in the link. Refer to the VL1000 ERS User's Manual for more information
regarding these connectors.
Note: After 10 seconds of inactivity, the menu display will change to the default state
showing the address.
To connect luminaires for simultaneous testing:
Step 1. At first luminaire in link, install loopback connector into DATA IN XLR
Step 2. At last luminaire, install male termination connector into DATA THRU XLR

Step 3. At master luminaire Menu Display, press [Menu].
Movement Disable
The Movement option has been added to the configuration menu. This allows for
pan/tilt functions to be disabled so that the luminaire can be placed in any position for
testing without movement occurring. In order to regain full control of the luminaire,
Movement will need to be enabled after testing.
Note: When setting the Movement option to disable, luminaires linked by a
loopback connector will have pan and tilt disabled for all the luminaires that are
linked.
