6.2.1 Overview of individual menu items
For separate control of all DMX-controlled units,
each spotlight must have its own start address.
Example: If the first DMX channel of the spotlight is
to be controlled by the DMX controller via DMX
address 17, set the start address on the spotlight
to 17. All other DMX channels of the spotlight will
be automatically assigned to the subsequent ad -
dresses.
For operation via the DMX controller, call up the
menu item
so that the address adjusted will be
indicated when the display is switched on. The indi-
cation of the address adjusted will change when a
DMX signal is received, e. g. for address 1, the indi-
cation will change from
to
when a DMX
signal is present at the DMX input.
Select one of the 9 programs available. For the pro-
grams 1 to 8, use the menu item
to adjust the
speed (program 9 = light output always white).
Note:
When the menu item
is set to
, the pro-
gram selected will not start.
When this menu item is called up, the program cur-
rently selected in the mode “Automatic” will start.

Call up this menu item when the spotlight is to be
controlled as a slave unit via the master unit
(
chapter 1, step 5).
The number of DMX channels depends on the
functions required; it may also depend on the num-
ber of control channels available on the light con-
troller. The functions available in the five channel
modes can be found in chapter 8.
When this menu item is called up, the program cur-
rently selected in the mode “Sound” will start. The
higher the value, the higher the sensitivity of the
spotlight to sound. When
is adjusted, the pro-
gram will stop or fail to start.
In the mode “Sound”, the spotlight will respond to
sound picked up by the microphone (13). Select
one of the two programs available. To adjust the
sensitivity, use the menu item
.
Note:
When the menu item
is set to
, the pro-
gram selected will not start.
In the master/ slave mode, set the master unit to
; otherwise, no control signals will be sent to
the slave units.
