Fixture Mode Menu
The Mode menu crossloads software from one fixture to
other intellaspot fixtures on the link.
To enter the Mode menu:
1. Press the Menu button to unlock the menu system
or to move back up the system to the top level
menus.
2. Using the left and right arrows on the Center
button, scroll through the top level to
Fixture
ModeMenu
and press the Enter button to select.
The MODE icon will be displayed in the banner with
the next level of configuration options below.
Crossloading Fixture Software
A fixture running a newer software version can load the
new software to all other intellaspot fixtures on the link
using the
CrossloadFirmware menu option.
To CrossloadFirmware from one fixture to all
intellaspot fixtures on the link:
1. Disconnect or bypass any controllers, serial data distributors, data line optoisolators, and any
fixtures using RS-422 communications (such as Dataflash
®
AF1000 xenon strobes). These
devices will block communication between the crossloading fixture and any other intellaspot
fixtures on the link.
2. On the crossloading fixture only, unlock the menu system and navigate to the FixtureMode
Menu
(see above) and press the Enter button to select.
3. Use the left and right arrows on the Center button to scroll to CrossloadFirmware.
4. Use the up and down arrows on the Center button to scroll to the Yes option and press the
Enter button to store. The fixture will upload its software to all other intellaspot fixtures on
the link.
When the crossload has finished successfully, CrossloadingComplete will appear briefly in the
display of the crossloading fixture, and all other fixtures will automatically home.
Note: If a new boot code was included with the latest software, the fixture
displays a BOOTDIFF error when it returns to the locked mode of the
menu system. To correct the boot code, copy the new boot code to
each fixture (see
Copying the Boot Code on page 33).
