MedeaWiz® Hydra™
.
Mode 91
DMX input, 1 channel, trigger up to 200 files, safe mode
Mode 91 controls one Sprite on Port 1 from DMX512 control.
Safe mode only passes file number to play data to the Sprite.
No control codes are passed.
The Sprite will loop circular the file 000 until it receives a command.
You must set a DMX address from 1 to 512 in the Hydra. See pages 33 to 37.
This is the DMX "channel" that the Hydra will select from the 512 channels received.
This "channel" will contain a single byte of data that your DMX controller sends.
Byte values of 1 – 200 Decimal (01 to C8 Hex) will play files 1 to 200.
A byte value of 255 (FF Hex) will force the Sprite back to the looping file 000.
It is ok if your controller continuously sends the channel data as normal.
The Hydra will ignore repeated data and act on new data values only.
Use a controller that can send a single value "level" command / queue.
A fader will cause the Sprite to try to play every file as the fader moves.
Using a fader may cause unexpected results of video output or freezing.
Mode 92
DMX input, 1 channel, trigger up to 200 files, full mode
Mode 92 is the same as Mode 91, but will pass all codes to the Sprite
Download the Sprite manual for a list of all possible command codes.
Mode 95
DMX input, 1 channel, trigger up to 200 files, plus DMX control of up to 8 outputs, safe mode
Mode 95 controls 1 Sprite on Port 1 plus 8 sinking outputs from DMX512 control.
This mode is exactly the same as Mode 91 except it will grab 9 DMX channels.
The DMX address you set in the Hydra is the first channel and for the Sprite.
The following 8 channels will map to the 8 sinking outputs.
Outputs may be on or off. There is no provision for "dimming".
Values 0 to 127 (7F Hex) will turn off an output.
Values of 128 (80 Hex) and higher will turn on an output.
It is possible to turn all outputs on at once. Beware of overheating and damage.
The Hydra sinking outputs are intended for small LED lamps or small relays.
Consider using SSR solid state relays to switch higher power loads.
See page 26 for more information about the sinking outputs.
Mode 96
DMX input, 1 channel, trigger up to 200 files, plus DMX control of up to 8 outputs, safe mode
Mode 96 is the same as Mode 95, except it will pass all control codes to the Sprite.
Download the Sprite manual for a list of all possible command codes.
