DMX Lines” option in Patch mode.
9. Fader ON > x (vv) - Sets the level of the fader at which LTP
channels turn on when fading in a memory or chase. X is the
percentage value, vv is the raw DMX value
10. Fader OFF < x (vv) - Sets the level of the fader at which LTP
channels turn off when fading out a memory or chase. This has to
be at least 2 values below the “on” value. The DLC-C003 will not
let you set an incorrect value.
11. Grand Master OK / Broken - Allows you to disable (fix at full) the
Grand Master fader should it happen to get broken by oiks being
careless with the desk case lid.
12. TC Check On / Off – Turns MIDI timecode checking on or off. If
turned on, the DLC-C003 will sample the incoming timecode, and
if it is corrupted will substitute internal timecode until the external
timecode is OK again.
13. xxx mcS - Sets the DMX idle time (the delay between the end of
one packet and the start of the next). This allows you to slow
down the DMX refresh rate if you have some equipment that can’t
keep up. Increasing the delay will degrade the performance of the
DMX link so you should not change this unless you have to. The
figure in brackets shows the DMX refresh rate in milliseconds.
14. Midi - SLAVE/MASTER/DISABLED/Visualiser - Sets the MIDI
mode of the DLC-C003. In Slave mode it receives data, in Master
mode it transmits data when you press a key or raise a fader. This
provides a simple way of recording a show straight into a
sequencer.
15. Midi channel = xx - Sets the MIDI transmit / receive channel.
MIDI channels are actually numbered 1-16, and the DLC-C003
displays 0-15, so add 1 to the DLC-C003 display to get the actual
channel.
16. Use 720K / 1.4Mb disks – Sets which type of disk the DLC-C003
expects. The DLC-C003 uses this setting to work out if your show
will fit on a single disk, or if it needs to span multiple disks.
There are also options on the softkeys, these are:
A [Fixtures or Mimics] – The Swop button LEDs can show either the
fixture intensity (Mimic) or light up if the fixture is selected
(Fixtures). This option can also be set by holding the Ypl button
and pressing Softkey A
B [Set TC valid range] – Allows you to set the MIDI timecode range
which will be accepted. Enter the minimum time as prompted on
the screen and press softkey A, or the maximum time and press
softkey B.
C [Specify Attributes for Bank] - Allows you to set which attributes
go together (also called the Focus Mask, see page 82 for another
way of setting this). Normally the Dimmer attribute includes all
the others, and the Colour attribute includes the
cyan/magenta/yellow attributes, but you can change this. Select
the Attribute to change, then press this option. Select the other
attributes you want to include, then press Exit. Beware of
changing these settings unless you are sure what you are doing.
G [Default settings] - sets all settings back to the defaults.
