Disabling the display
It is possible to black out the fixture’s control panel display by sending a DMX command on the
Control/Settings channel. Blacking out fixtures’ onboard displays reduces visual distractions in the lighting
rig for audiences.
Error mode
You can enable or disable the display of error warnings using the onboard control panel, RDM or P3:
• If set to NORMAL, the display is activated and lights up if the fixture needs to report an error.
• If set to SILENT, the fixture does not light the display with error warnings but error messages can still
be read when the display is activated manually.
In both NORMAL and SILENT modes, the status LED lights amber to indicate a warning and red to
indicate an error.
Hibernation mode
You can enable Hibernation Mode using the onboard control panel, the Control/settings DMX channel,
RDM or P3.
HIBERNATION MODE sets light output intensity to zero and disables effect deployment and pan/tilt
movement. The main purpose of this mode is to protect the fixture from the intake of airborne material
such as dust and confetti and to provide an option for situations where noise is critical. The small
reduction in power consumption obtained in Hibernation Mode is not the main purpose of this mode.
When you bring the fixture out of hibernation mode, it performs a full reset.
Standalone operation (scene capture)
You can enable standalone functionality using the onboard control panel, the Control/settings DMX
channel, RDM or P3.
• The SCENE CAPTURE option lets you capture all the DMX values that the fixture is currently receiving
and save them as a standalone scene with a RECORD command. If you enable PLAYBACK, the
fixture will show that scene every time it is powered on or you carry out a reset.
• If the fixture receives a DMX control signal during playback, it will immediately stop showing its
standalone scene. If the fixture is powered off and on again or if the fixture is reset, it will again show its
saved scene.
• To stop the fixture showing its saved scene at each power cycle or reset, set PLAYBACK to DISABLE.
Backlight in Compact Mode
You can enable the Backlight in Compact Mode function using the onboard control panel, the
Control/settings DMX channel, RDM or P3.
BACKLIGHT IN COMPACT MODE lets you activate or deactivate the Backlight pixels when you are
controlling the fixture in Compact DMX mode.
Restoring factory defaults
You can return the fixture to its factory default settings using the onboard control panel, RDM or P3. Any
custom settings that have been configured will be erased.
Restoring the factory default settings does not affect the fixture’s calibration settings.
DMX Live
You can view the DMX values currently being received on each of the fixture’s DMX channels using the
onboard control panel only. Viewing DMX values can be useful for troubleshooting purposes.
