EUROLIGHT LC2412 Comparable to a mixing console in a recording studio, a light mixing console is a switching central for stage lighting. Therefore, a light mixing console has to be absolutely reliable and under no circumstances leave you stranded. We created our LC2412 using the most modern components in order to guarantee you the maximum reliability possible. But without functionality, no amount of reliability is of use to you.

EUROLIGHT LC2412 4.5 Previewing memories individually on the stage (live mode) Live mode gives you the option to preview individual memories and chases on the stage, without having to interrupt the program currently running. Therefore, live mode changes the usual sequence of events that allows you to run a show on the stage while previewing and editing chases and memories in the background by using the control LEDs.

EUROLIGHT LC2412 7.4.2 Programming fading times in theater mode Since theater mode presents a special kind of chases, it also uses the menu and chase controls to program steps.

+ + EUROLIGHT LC2412 Attention: Storing data on a storage location that already contains some data automatically replaces this data. Similarly, the data on the consoles memory is replaced when you transmit the data from the memory card. If you wish to keep this data, make sure to first store it to a memory card. 8. DIMMER CONTROL Since the LC2412 uses its own data format, once you format a memory card on it, you can no longer read this card on a PC! 7.
EUROLIGHT LC2412 uses this standard (even if it is done with partially different plugin connectors), your EUROLIGHT LC2412 is therefore extremely flexible in how it can be implemented. To assign the desired DMX channels to individual console channels (or to preview the assignment of channels), go through the following steps: A big advantage of digital control is its enourmously simplified cabling, since you only need one single cable for transmitting control data.
EUROLIGHT LC2412 9.3.3 MIDI connection 9.1 Cables recommended for DMX512 The cables should be manufactured according to EIA-485 or EIA-422 specifications. Using shielded, twisted, double-stranded data transmission cables is recommended. For example, these are the same cables used for transmitting digital audio data in the AES/EBU format. You can also implement lines with a second wire set, used as a replacement in case of a malfunction.
