DMX Loss Behavior
DMX Loss Behavior may be set to either Hold Last Look, Fade to Preset, or Wait and Fade
Out.
• Hold Last Look - holds any active dimmers at whatever levels they were receiving
when the data was lost. The dimmers will remain on until data is restored or the
SmartPack is reset.
• Wait and Fade - holds any active dimmers at whatever levels they were receiving when
the data was lost for a user-defined amount of time and then fade those dimmers to
zero in a user-defined fade time. The maximum wait and fade time is 59min:59sec.
• Fade to Preset - plays a user-defined preset when data is lost.

the mode selected.

SmartPack features up to 32 built-in presets which can be recalled without the need of any
external control system. For SmartLink enabled systems with a LinkPower supply installed,
up to four 5 or 10 button preset stations may be used for remote recall of the built in presets
and sequence.
N o t e :
When you record a preset, SmartPack will snapshot any level whether set in the test menu
or by a DMX input. If both levels are present it will record all levels. When a new preset is
recorded using the same preset number, SmartPack will record over the previous levels.
Unless preset timing is configured otherwise, presets are activated in the default fade up
and fade down time of 3 seconds.
