ProfiLux 4 Programming Guide
EN 2017-02-06 26
After selecting the Illumination to which the tube to be burnt-in is connected, the burning in
period can be set between 0h and 100h.
This lighting is then only operated with 0% or 100% until the operating hours meter (see also
-> Operating hours) has reached the burn-in period for this lighting (all dim-settings from 1%
are automatically output as 100%).
At 0% the lamp will be still switched off - the burn-in is done step by step.
By default, the burn-in time is set to 0 h, so the burn-in is deactivated.
3.9 Operating hours
Each lighting channel includes its own operating hours meter, which continues to run when
the corresponding lighting is active (brightness greater than 0%).
This feature continuously tracks the length of time a light is in operation so you always know
how when it should be exchanged. It is especially useful for preventing performance
decreases due to bulbs aging.
The operating hours counter is also used by the burn-in program. The operating hours are
written cyclically every 1h into the non-volatile memory. This ensures that the operating
hours are maintained even in the event of a power failure.
After selecting the menu item Operating hours, please select the Illumination option. The
operating hours for this Illumination are then displayed.
After a few seconds or by pressing a key, you will be asked if you want to “reset the operating
hours meter?” A confirmation with Yes resets the operating hours counter to 0 h. Of course,
this should only be done when changing the light source.
3.10 Thunderstorms
ProfiLux 4 can simulate an authentic thunderstorm.
When a thunderstorm simulation is in-effect, a slow reduction of all illumination channels will
occur. As these channels become darker, the number of flashes will increase. After the
thunderstorm has reached its climax, the lighting is slowly brought back to normal strength,
the flashes become less frequent until finally the thunderstorm is over.
A thunderstorm can be started manually any number of times or automatically up to 4 times
per day. There is also an option to start a thunderstorm at random.
Set the thunderstorm parameters in the Storm menu:
