Dimmer Operation 4-0
Revision 2 - 20 March, 1997 HP SERIES DIMMER OPERATING MANUAL
4.0 Dimmer Operation
This section assumes the dimmer has been correctly connected to three phase power
and a source of DMX input signals as described in section 3.0.
4.1 Menu structure
The HP12-TR dimmers feature a “tree” menu structure. This means that an option is
chosen from the display with the LEVEL/FUNCTION encoder wheel, and the
ENTER keypad button is then pressed to confirm the selection.
The encoder wheel is then used to select the next level of options, the ENTER button
is pressed to confirm the selection, and so on.
After all the options have been selected, the display reverts to “OK” to indicate the
dimmer is now back in normal operating mode.
The display will flash if there are more menu levels above the current one.
4.1.1 ENTER
The ENTER keypad button is always pressed to confirm a menu or channel selection.
4.1.2 NORMAL
The NORMAL keypad button cancels the current menu selection and allows the
operator to start again in the event of an error. The display shows “OK”.
Pressing NORMAL while “OK” is displayed shows the dimmer software version.
4.1.3 CLEAR
The CLEAR keypad button is used to go back one menu level if an option is
incorrectly selected.
4.1.4 MODE menu
