LightJockey Help
The 2510 will start executing sequence #1 in the default trig mode. Use [up] and [down] buttons on
the 2510 to select different sequences and load the new sequence by pressing [Enter]. The trig mode
of the sequence may be changed at any point, see later.
Sub-List Mode
The 2510 will start executing the first sequence in sub-list with the lowest number. The 2510 indicates
the current sub-list number by displaying [-X] where X indicates the sub-list number.
Use [up] and [down] buttons on the 2510 to select a different sub-list, and start the sub-list by
pressing [Enter].
List Mode
The 2510 will start by executing the first sequence in the list, followed by the rest of the sequences in
sequential order. When all sequences have been executed the list starts from top.
Changing list mode
The 2510 mode may be changed at any point in the following cycle: Manual -> Sub-list -> List ->
Manual
From Manual mode to sub-list mode: press and hold the [Enter] button until the 2510 displays [-X]
where X indicates a sub-list number, then release [Enter]. To change directly to list mode hold down
the [Enter] button until the display briefly displays [--].
From Sub-List mode, hold down the [Enter] button to until the display shows [--] to enter list mode.
From list mode, press the [Enter] button briefly until the display shows [--] to enter manual mode.
Note that when entering Sub-list or List mode, the sequence trig modes are reset to the default trig
modes and scene times programmed in the 2510 list.
Trig modes
The 2510 has 4 different trig modes, each of the sequences are assigned a default-trig mode in the
2510 list.
The actual trig mode may be changed on the 2510 at any time using the [Manual], [Auto] and [Music]
buttons. The actual trig mode will remain active and override the default trig mode until the 2510 is
switched back into Sub-list or List mode.
Manual - Sequences are only trigged when pressing the [Manual] button.
Auto - Sequences are trigged by the internal clock, either using the scene time originally
programmed in the LightJockey sequences or using the override time provided by the user. To set an
override auto-trig time, press the [Auto] button continuously until the desired auto-rate is set. To
restore to the pre-programmed auto time, press and hold the [Auto] button for more than 0.5 seconds.
Music - Press the [Music] button to switch to music trig mode. The 2510 will now trig the sequences
via the built-in microphone.
Music Random - To enter the Music random mode, press and hold the [Music] button for more than
0.5 seconds. In Music Random mode, sequences with more than 2 scenes, when trigged by the
microphone will select a random scene in the sequence rather than selecting scenes sequentially.
Blackout
Use the [Blackout] button to blackout the fixtures. Press the [Blackout] button again to restore the
light output. Unless the Force DBO switch has been set in the 2510 list dialog, black out will be
performed according to the blackout command defined in the relevant LightJockey fixture profiles. This
means that all effects not related to fixture intensity will not be affected, allowing a more graceful
restore from a blackout.

2510 memory test
Warning: The 2510 memory test is a destructive test - it completely erases the memory
contents of the 2510 controller. The test is used to check the flash memory chip mounted on the 2510
PCB. The memory test is accessible from Options menu of the 2510 list dialog.
