  • Page 50: Implementing Dmx/Lwr Control

    • Cyberlight fixtures have the largest number and variety of effects to control; therfore, putting only Cyberlight fixtures on a link saves you the trouble of having to remember which fixtures respond to which commands. • Intellabeam fixtures, Emulator fixtures and AF1000 fixtures will stop software uploads to Cyberlight fixtures farther down the link.

  • Page 51: Figure 2-1. The Address Switch Block Allows You To Select The Control Protocol (Dmx 1, Dmx 2, Dmx 3, Or Lwr) And The Fixture Number

    For example, suppose you have 12 Cyberlight fixtures on one link. You want six of them to operate independently of each other and the other six to operate in exactly the same way. You need to assign each of the six independently-operating Cyberlight fixtures a unique fixture number, but you can assign a single fixture number to the other six, for a total of seven fixture numbers.

  • Page 52: Table 2-1: Protocol Mode Switch Settings

    This means you must use a controller that supports LWR protocol. The Status Cue system and the Cyberlight LCD controller (both manufactured by High End Systems) support LWR protocol. In addition, other vendors have controllers that support LWR; consult the documentation provided with your controller for more information.

  • Page 56: Mounting The Fixture

    Mounting the Fixture Cyberlight is designed to be mounted in any orientation; you can even stand the fixture on its end handles. However you wish to mount the fixture, you must follow the precautions and suggestions below: • Verify the input voltage you are using matches the Cyberlight fixture’s voltage selection jumpers (see the section titled “Electrical Specifications”...

  • Page 57: Mounting The Fixture On A Truss Or Other Support System

    Attach a suitable clamp through one of the holes on top of the Cyberlight fixture yoke. If you are attaching one clamp, use the middle hole on the yoke. If you are attaching two clamps (as shown in Figure 2-5), attach one clamp to each of the holes on either side of the center hole.

  • Page 58: Figure 2-5. Attaching Two C-Clamps To The Cyberlight Yoke

    The safety cable can be looped around the support and the Cyberlight yoke once or twice; loop it twice if this will help prevent the fixture from rotating, thus possibly loosening the clamp mounting bolt.

  • Page 94: Appendix Admx Control Of Cyberlight

    Use this appendix to control your Cyberlight fixtures using DMX 512 modes 1, 2, and 3. Overview The Cyberlight is a block-addressed fixture; that is, you do not address it at an arbitrary DMX start channel, but rather at a channel boundary. There are two channel boundaries you can select: 15-channel and 20- channel.

  • Page 95: Address Dip Switches

    Address DIP Switches Figure A-1 below shows a functional breakdown of the eight DMX address DIP switches, located on the Cyberlight fixture’s rear panel. (Review “Identifying Rear Panel Components” on page 1-8 for the location of the switches). Figure A-1. The DMX address switch block allows you to select the control protocol (DMX 1, DMX 2, DMX 3, or LWR) and the fixture number.

    Each Cyberlight fixture in DMX mode 1 uses 20 channels of the DMX 512 protocol thus providing control for up to 25 fixtures (512 / 20 = 25.6 fixtures). Use the procedure below to control your Cyberlight with DMX mode 1: Set the fixture to DMX mode 1 by setting address switch 7 to OFF and address switch 8 to ON.

    The block of channels assigned to each address defines its channel boundary. Channel boundaries can start at any address, even or odd. The exact address depends on the fixture’s addressing scheme. Cyberlight DMX modes 1 and 2 are each on 20-channel boundaries while mode 3 is on a 15-channel boundary.
