Resume Button

Pressing the Resume Button will always cause the DMX OverRide to pass DMX data

from the input to the output. The button’s multi-color LED indicates the following:

GREEN – Resume Mode is active and DMX is actively detected on the input and

being passed to the output.

ORANGE – DMX is not detected on the input. If the Dropout Enable mode is

activated with the rear-panel DIP switch, Scene 1 will activate and

the corresponding Scene 1 button will be Green.

Operation

Operating your DMX OverRide is easy! Basically you just feed it DMX and record your

3 presets or “Scenes”. Once you’ve done that you can press each of the buttons on the

front panel to activate each scene, or use the remote inputs to do the same thing.

Recording a Scene

A Scene is a single-frame snapshot of the DMX universe. Here’s how to record a Scene.

1. Set the Record Mode DIP switch to the down-position. The Scene buttons on the

front panel of the DMX OverRide will all turn RED, and the DMX input is passed

directly to the DMX output.

2. Set your DMX universe to the desired preset. For house-lights or maintenance

this might be all channels at 100%. For emergency lighting you might choose to

run just the exit lights to 100%.

3. Press a scene button (1, 2, or 3) to store the current DMX preset. The button will

turn GREEN while the data is written to nonvolatile memory.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the other Scenes, each time commanding your DMX

controller or lighting console to the desired preset.

5. When you’re done recording your Scenes flip the Record Enable DIP switch up to

disable recording and place the unit into playback mode.

Recalling a Scene

To recall a Scene all you need to do is press one of the 3 Scene buttons on the front panel,

or activate one of the corresponding Remote inputs. To return to normal where DMX is

passed from input to output, press the Resume button, or activate the Resume remote

input.
