Calculating The Drive Time; Transferring The Show To Your Devices; Control Via Dmx 512 - Explo X2 Wave Flamer Manual

10.8 CALCULATING THE DRIVE TIME

If a music synchronous flame show is to be created, the drive time between the single ignitions must
be calculated. With the V1 version (unidirectional radio control) the drive time to the next position is
entered as the rise time. With the X2 version (bidirectional radio control) the device will automatically
move to the next ignitions angle and wait for the time to fire. Between ignition a larger amount of time
must be chosen as the drive time.
If the Wave Flamer can't end an effect before the start of the
following ignitions back. This can lead to a nonsynchronous

10.9 TRANSFERRING THE SHOW TO YOUR DEVICES

A detailed guide on how to transfer a show to your transmitters and receivers can be found in the X2-
series manual. Note: A show created in the ShowCreator must be transferred to the transmitter via the
AutoShow X2.
The AutoShow allows you to have a quick look over the ignition cues and their opening times for the
Wave Flamer sequences, as well as changing them if needed.

11 CONTROL VIA DMX 512

The X2 Wave Flamer can be controlled via DMX 512 as a standard feature. This is done with 6 DMX
channels. A simplified version of the DMX control (the Easy DMX mode) uses only 2 channels (ignition
variants and safety channel). This chapter describes the standard DMX control. A guide for the Easy
DMX mode can be found in the next part of this manual.

Even though calculating the drive time for the X2 series is
done automatically, it is still neccessary to leave enough
distance between single ignitions (minimum drive time +
next ignition, it will still make it, and simply move all
