Lamp Controls
For many devices, their lamp and motor control functions can be controlled remotely using DMX.
These will often require use of a timed sequence of DMX levels to control various functions such as
striking the lamp, resetting the fixture, and other specific actions.
To definethelamp controls for adevice:
1. With the fixture selected, press {Lamp Ctrls}. The lamp control display will open.
2. Press {New} to add as many lamp control options as needed.
3. Click on the name in the lamp control column to name it.
4. Click in the Steps columns (Time, DMX, and Level).
5. Press {New} to add as many steps needed for the lamp control.
6. Select the time column to change the timing for each step. Timing is in seconds. The standard
time in the Eos Family library is 12 seconds.
Note: It is not recommended that you set the time to {Hold} unless the DMX value
should permanently remain at that level. In order to alter a level set with a time of
{Hold}, another lamp control to change that DMX value would need to be created.
7. For each step created, click in the DMXcolumn and press {New} to add as many DMX
addresses and levels as needed. You may setup as many levels as needed for each step.
