SETTING THE AUTOMATION FEATURES (PHOTOCELL) VIA RDM
The fixture includes two related features that allow you to automate standalone operation:
• The in-built photocell can enable fixture output (at 100%) when the ambient light level
falls below a pre-determined level.
• The auto shutoff timer determines how long the fixture should remain outputting after it
has been triggered by the photocell.
These automated features operate only in standalone mode, i.e. with no external DMX
control input.

• PHOTO SENS. ON/OFF - enables/disables the photocell system.
• PHOTO SENS. VALUE - determines the required ambient light level at which the fixture
should begin outputting (100 is the most sensitive to light). Some experimentation will
be required to determine the optimum setting (the default is 70).
• LED ON TIME ON LIGHT - determines the number of hours (starting from the photocell
trigger) that light output should continue before being extinguished. The options
range from 1 to 24 hours (the default is 10 hours).
