Configuration with Composer Pro
We recommend that you take the Control4 Vibrant Linear Lighting
Micro-Certification at http://ctrl4.co/certification-vibrant. It provides
detailed explanations and video procedures for setting up DMX-
controlled lighting.
Perform the following procedure to configure your DMX gateway
and decoder in Composer Pro:
1.
Open Composer Pro and connect to the project.
2.
Add gateway drivers.
a. In the Items pane > Discovered tab > Manufacturer, find
"CONTROLFREAK" and double-click to add driver. Repeat this
for each gateway in the project.
b. The gateway will reboot and may install updates. While
updating, the driver will not respond. Do not remove power
during this process.
c. You may track progress on the gateway's Properties tab.
Give each gateway in the project a descriptive name.
3.
Add DMX drivers.
a. For each zone of LED tape light, add one instance of the DMX
light driver.
b. In the Items pane > Search tab, type "DMX Light", press Enter.
Find and double-click "DMX Light Driver" to add.
c. Name the zone after the area it's illuminating (unless the
customer has a preference).
4.
Connect DMX Light drivers to the Lights
a. Click Connections > Control/AV tab. Select a gateway.
b. DMX devices have automatically connected to the first
gateway added to the project.
i If there is more than one gateway in the project, reconnect
the DMX devices to the correct gateways.
ii Select a gateway. From the Control Outputs pane, drag
the output to the DMX device it will control. Do this for all
gateways in the project.
Display
The gateway has a 128 x 96-pixel display that shows the time, status,
and other useful information.
Home Screen
The home screen displays the time and date, as well as battery,
temperature, and connection status icons. The battery icon appears
when the PCB battery is below its recommended voltage, the
temperature icon displays when over 50 degrees, and the connection
status icon displays when a valid Ethernet connection is accepted.
An information line is available at the bottom of the display which
provides status updates on schedules, burn-in, or current profile. The
default is schedule status and is settable using the keypad menu.
Pressing any button opens the menu. With no user interaction after 10
seconds, the display automatically returns to the home screen.
Main Menu and 1, 2, 3 Buttons
The main menu shows options for Installation, Testing, and Settings.
Button 1 moves the cursor up, button 3 moves the cursor down, and
button 2 confirms selection.
Installation
The installation allows for random addressing of DALI fittings.
Testing
The testing screen allows for DALI and DMX512-A Min/Max
commands, displaying of inputs, and counting devices. The Min/Max
testing command is one of the best troubleshooting processes that you
can use to test the DMX and DALI buses before commissioning and
programming the system.
Settings
The settings screen lets you choose between various options, such as
status information display and muting/unmuting sensors.
Troubleshooting
Device not found by discovery: Check the connections and make
sure the network symbol is present on the gateway OLED.
Using the keypad menu, check in Settings > Device Status
to see if an IP has been set. If it is 0.0.0.0, check the router's
network settings to make sure it supports DHCP.
Device fails to select appropriate version: Reset power to the
controller and make sure network is not affected by other devices.
Startup system check: On startup, various systems are checked.
They will display on the screen for 5 seconds after the standard
boot sequence.
To easily verify your wiring and system setup, press any button on
the gateway. From the main menu, go down to Testing > Min/
Max DMX or DALI (depending on the device). Press 2 to confirm.
The lights will cycle full on and off. If your lights do not turn on,
you may have a wiring problem.
