a sequence (A Sequence is a set of lighting
controller commands constructed using the
Showtime Windows software) has to identify a
particular output circuit on a particular lighting
controller (Unit.)
For example, in a sequence that you construct, a
channel you call “Front door” may be assigned to
Unit ID 03 circuit 10. Because the controllers are
daisy chained together, every controller sees every
command sent but Unit 03 will only react to
commands that are marked “for Unit 03.”
See Appendix A for a conversion of Hexadecimal
controller unit IDs set with the Status Display and
their decimal equivalents.
Assigning a Lighting Curve
You can only assign all channels of the controller to
one lighting curve through the status display. You
must use the Hardware Utility program to assign
individual channels to different curves. See the
Lighting Curves and Assigning Lighting Curves
sections for more information on curves.
To adjust lighting curves from the Status Display,
press the Select/Set button until the display shows
“C-xx.” Eg:
Then use the ▼/▲buttons to select one of the
following values:
C-S Standard lighting curve for all channels
C-Cn Lighting curve n for all channels

C-HS Hardware Utility program Set curves
C-0F On/Off lighting curve for all channels
Press the Set button to save your choice.
Input Header
This figure shows the Input Header that is to the left
and below the Select/Set button. See Figure 1. You
can connect switches here to trigger standalone
sequences or provide trigger events for interactive
shows. See the Stand Alone Operation section for
more information.
Switches are simple normally open or normally
closed types. No voltages may be applied to the
switch inputs. You may take up to 500ma total from
the 5 vdc and 9 vdc power supplies to power
devices like motion sensors.
Resetting the Controller
To reset the controller, press both the ▼and
▲buttons simultaneously and turn the controller
power on. Or, hold the ▼ and ▲ buttons for 5
seconds. The display will show “0000.” Release the
▼and ▲buttons when you see the “0000.” The
