Operating Modes:

The first five DipSwitches are used to set the mode
of operation for the

Sd-25

when it isn

t set to receive

DMX-512. The remaining five DipSwitches set the

options

. The

off

after each

mode

shows

which of the first five DipSwitches need to be turned

off

to select that mode. As an example; to

select

mode B

, you would turn

switches one,

two and four. Switches three and five would be
turned

off

Sometimes when the operating mode is switched,
you may need to cycle power to the

Sd-25

to assure

it operates as expected.

If you need your SoundFiles(s) to just loop:

use mode 0.

DipSwitches one though five = off/off/off/off/off

If you need to trigger one or more Sound-

Files(s): use mode C.

DipSwitches one though five = off/off/on/on/off

Mode 0 / off/off/off/off/off:

Loops with Mutes
Fade to -3dB on

Mode 1 / on/off/off/off/off:

Loops with Mutes
Fade to -6dB on

Mode 2 / off/on/off/off/off:
