The menu selection 'Output Programming'
The next activation of 'Mode' leads to the menu section 'Output Programming'. You can select one of
the following choices by activating 'Up' and 'Down':
Output Programming: Keep up & Exit / Edit / Delete / Consecutive Channels
4.1.4.1 The menu item 'Output Programming: Keep up & Exit'
This option is preselected after entering the menu 'Output Programming'.
4.1.4.2 The menu item 'Output Programming: Edit', without stepping
function
The following section describes the editing of the channel programming assuming that the device has
not been equipped with the optional stepping function. Therefore, this section is applicable for all
devices even if the stepping function is present.
Which output is being programmed right now is being displayed in red color by the output LED. The
measured resistance value of the selected output is being displayed in the left corner on the bottom.
The two horizontal bars inform you that the resistance is higher than the maximum measurable
resistance of 99 Ohms.
firing line which is 12 Ohms in this example. You can rotate through the whole output programming
simply by short activations of 'Mode'. If you want to select a certain output you can always position the
arrow symbol next to the parameter 'output' and then activate 'Up' or 'Down'. Longer activations of 'Up'
or 'Down' lead to an automatic changing of the current parameter with increasing speed.
To quit the edit function, activate 'Mode' for approx. one second. You will reach the menu selection
'Output Programming' again and by selecting 'Keep up & Exit' you may exit this part of the main menu.
You will leave this menu without changes to the output programming of the
device if you are activating 'Mode' here. Use this selection also after
previously choosing another option to exit the menu 'Output Programming'.
Activating 'Mode' here will lead you to the editing menu of the channel
programming.
An example of the editing menu is shown on the left. The double-headed
arrow indicates which parameter is currently being changed with 'Up' and
'Down'. The output to be programmed can be selected in this example.
The required firing channel can be selected after a short activation of
'Mode'. The arrows are next to the channel value. '-' means that no firing
channel (i.e. cue number) has been assigned yet.
In this example the firing channel 53 has been assigned to output 1. If this
channel will be fired later this output will fire immediately.
By another short activation of 'Mode' you can select the output again. The
output number has been incremented automatically. Therefore, you are now
editing output 2. Again, you see the current resistance of the connected
These two question marks ('??') are being displayed if the output number
has just been changed because the receiver needs some time to measure
the resistance of the output. If you are changing the output all the time the
two question marks are being displayed constantly.
