The OVATION™ FD-165WW may be plugged into and controlled using a regular dimmer
or by being plugged into constant power and using DMX control. By default the product
is set to SENS which automatically senses the type of power/control being used and sets
the product to react accordingly. The product may also be set to DMMR mode which
turns off the DMX control and only allows exclusive control of the product via the dimmer.
1. Go to the RUN main level.
2. Select the DMMR.
When SENS and DMMR modes are active, the only control panel button that will
work will be the <ENTER> button which will allow you to change modes.
