noticed that the light intensity doesn’t change anymore for some ballasts for a voltage
supply under 1.5V, for other ballasts the dimmable range goes to ca. 0.8V.
The current pump stops although the set current speed is >= 1%.
The maximal voltage (at 100%) has to be set between 4.5V and 10V, to solve for example the
following problems:
For certain dimmable ballasts there is no further light intensity change visible
between 9.5 V and 10 V.
The current pump operates with full power already at 8 V.
The moonlight is too bright at 10 V
8.5 Program LED
These functions are used to reprogram a connected LED light from GHL (Mitras-Simu-Stick).
During programming, only the lamp to be programmed must be connected! The setting is
stored in the LED light (even in the event of a power failure).
Swap channels – the channel assignment in the lamp is swapped. As a default setting
ProfiLux Moon reacts to illumination 1 (resp. 3) and ProfiLux Sunrise to 2 (resp. 4). After the
channel swap the lamp behaves exactly inversely. This makes e.g. then sense, if a moon light
and a commonly dimmable light bar shall be connected via a Y-plug at the same port of the
ProfiLux.
Lightning mode – here you can set if the flash light (only for ProfiLux Simu) shall react to All
flashes, to Flash 1 or to Flash 2. If only one ProfiLux Simu is connected, you should choose All
flashes. If 2 ProfiLux Simu are connected, then one should react to Flash 1, the other one to
Flash 2. This produces a nice effect, since for a flash generated by a ProfiLux 4 not always
both flash lights react but it is determined at random where the flash is generated.
To achieve an optimal light intensity course, the control voltages should be
adapted to the connected lamp, i.e. minimal light intensity and lower
voltage supply as well as maximal light intensity and upper voltage supply
should fit exactly together.
To achieve an optimal course of the dimming you can test in the menu
Manual Illumination, if for the lower dimming values the light intensity
changes or if the lamp shuts off and for the upper dimming values if there
are still differences in the light intensity that can be seen. If necessary, the
Minimal and Maximal voltage have to be changed and tested again.
