Chase effects
This section describes each of the 31 internal chase
effects that are selectable either via the control menu
(PROG
>
C1/C2
>
EFEC) or using DMX values sent
from an external source. To use the internal effects, set
the MODE option either to EF M (to control effects via
the menu) or MAX2 (to control effects externally via
DMX).

Using the menu
• When not in the menu, the four digit display scrolls the
current DMX address and mode. The display’s right hand
decimal point (data dot) is used to indicate status (see below).
• Press
to enter the menu. The four digit display will show ADDR.
• Use
and to move between menu options (or to change a
value within an option).
• Press
to enter an option (or to fix a changed value within an
option and return to the previous option level). Note: If you do
not press to fix a value, operation will revert to the
previously set mode at the next power on.
• Press
to exit from a menu option (and eventually
exit the menu completely).
General notes
• Ensure that only one DMX
device in the chain is set
as master (e.g. the lighting
desk). This fixture is usually
set to slave mode.
• This fixture is shipped with
the DMX address set to
001.
• The four digit display can
be set to switch off when
not in use. To restore, press
. To alter this mode use:
PERS
>
DISP.
Master/slave/data indication
The right hand decimal point (data dot) of the display is used to indicate the mas-
ter/slave settings and also the presence of a DMX input signal, as shown below:
Data dot ON Master mode
Data dot FLASHING Slave mode (DMX data input present)
Data dot OFF Slave mode (no DMX data present)
Notes:
• Ensure that only one DMX device in the chain is set as master (e.g. the desk).
• Use PERS > data to change between master and slave modes.
• When set to master mode, the fixture will scroll MASTER in place of a DMX
address (when not within the menu).
• If the display has been set to auto off (disp > aoff), the data dot will
remain active but at a lower brightness.
Channel layouts within operation modes
The table below shows how colour mixing, chase effects and master intensity
controls are mapped to DMX channels for each mode. The dmx and16bt modes
do not use chase effects. In all modes, the first channel of the fixture occurs at the
DMX address selected using
addr and successive channels for the fixture follow
from there.

* Master intensity for dmx and16bt modes are available only when the
pers

mint option is set to on. Master intensity is always 8-bit.
coarse = High channel for 16-bit, fine = Low channel for 16-bit
