ETC sensor+ CEM+ - Set Dimmer Properties

42 Sensor+ CEM+ User/Config Manual
Patch
The Patch page provides a powerful and convenient place to alter the default 1 to 1 patch to suit your
individual needs. The patch itself is a table of addresses that you can use to assign various control
addresses (DMX, EDMX or sACN) to individual dimmers. The dimmer number and name are in the
columns to the left and the rest of the row are the control addresses that are patched to that dimmer.
Control addresses must be limited to their respective valid ranges. Valid DMX range is 1 through 512.
Valid EDMX range is 1 through 32767. Valid sACN universe range is 1 through 256 and address
range is 1-512. If your patching causes the range to exceed either of the valid maximums, the
remainder of the specified dimmers will remain unpatched.
Dimmer Doubled addresses are always shown in patch, however dimmers are not actually in dimmer
doubling mode unless they are set with a Dimmer Double firing mode.
Set Dimmer Properties
When a rack is initially defined, it is filled with the selected dimmer module type. The module type can
be changed, and each module has an appropriate mode assigned as default. Once the desired modules
are selected and saved, the mode may be edited if necessary. Changing modes and saving will set all
the other properties to the default for that mode. The rest of the properties may be edited individually
for a specific application, but will be overwritten with the defaults if the module or mode is changed.
(Off mode does not affect other properties).
You can either edit the dimmer properties (dimmer type, fire mode, voltage regulation...) individually,
or by searching for dimmers by several criteria and edit those found dimmers at the same time.
Normal
Change the firing mode to Normal and click Save Changes. After saving changes, the dimmer
properties will change automatically or can now be set to your desired values.
