CONFIGURATION
The AL Driver 4 is configured using its 12 way switch block. The three modes of operation
are external DMX control, standalone color mixing or standalone chases.
Note: Numerous apps
are available to assist
you with configuring
the correct switch
combinations for a
given DMX address.
STANDALONE
COLOR MIXING
To select standalone
color mixing, ensure that
switch 11 is ON, while 10
and 12 are OFF. Switches
1 to 8 are then used to
set the overall color mix.
If both the 25% and 75%
switches for any one
color are set to ON, that
color will be shown at
100%:
STANDALONE
CHASES
To select standalone
chases, ensure that switch
12 is ON, while 10 and
11 are OFF. Switches 1 to
3 select the
Fade time
(0
to 100%); switches 4 to
6 adjust the
Speed
(0 to
30s) and 7 to 9 select the
Chase program
(9 chases).
DMX CONTROL
To select DMX control, ensure that switch 10 is ON, while 11 and 12
are OFF. Switches 1 to 9 are then used to set the DMX start address.
Switches 1 to 9 are ‘weighted’ with a value as shown here:
