DMX Data Display
The DMX data display shows the data received for the given luminaire and does not
show the entire stream of 512 bytes. It shows only the number of channels used for the
given luminaire model in 16-bit enhanced mode.
For example, a VL1000TS luminaire with an address of 40 will show DMX Channels
1-27 which would correlate to DMX Channels 40-66.
Control Channel Functions
The following control actions must be accomplished with zero time transition or with
timing disabled. Discrete values must be used and not manual controls such as faders
or encoders.
To use control channel functions:
Step 1. Select an action to be sent.
Step 2. Set control channel value for desired action (for example, 84 for reset). Hold
value for 3 seconds.
Note: A numerical keypad is required for sending values. An encoder or fader does
not allow for a quick value change, which is required to effect the control functions.
Step 3. Set control channel value to zero. (This must occur without any scaling
values. Action will be voided if other values are detected between action
value and zero.)
