Hinweis: Terminierung der DMX-Leitung. Zur Vermeidung von Störungen durch
Reflektionen am Leitungsende muss die DMX-Leitung terminiert werden. Dazu muss in
den letzten Spot der von einer DMX-Leitung angesteuert wird, eine Standard-DMX-
Abschlussstecker mit internem 120 Ohm in die DMX-Ausgangsbuchse gesteckt
werden.

“SLA” DMX Slave Mode
Press the MODE button (4) until the display shows “SLA”, indicating operation in “SLA”
(SLAVE) mode. In this mode the unit is set to DMX-channel 001 in order to receive the
signals from a master-unit of the Multiform LS series being in mode "A" or "C". The unit
interprets CH1 as red intensity, CH2 as green intensity and CH3 as blue intensity. CH4
is not in use, and the potentiometer (1) is disabled.
This mode can also be used for remotely controlling the unit if no specific DMX address
is needed and channels 001-003 can serve as a default. To indicate that the unit is
controlled by an external DMX signal, the DMX LED (3) is lit.
“d” Mode (DMX Mode)
Press the MODE button (4) until the display shows “d”, indicating operation in “d”
(DMX) mode. Shortly after that, the display shows the DMX starting address. You can
choose any DMX starting address by simply using the UP/DOWN buttons (5/6). The
chosen DMX-address comes effective approximately 3 seconds later and will show up
on the display (2) in alternation to the “d”. This allows control of the unit by any external
DMX signal sending on the chosen channel.
In this mode the potentiometer (1) is disabled.
The unit receives DMX values on a packet of four channels and mirrors the received
data on the DMX output (8). If a DMX signal is present the DMX LED (3) will turn on.
The four channels control the unit as follows:
DMX channel Value Range Function
CH1 000-255 Red intensity
CH2 000-255 Green intensity
CH3 000-255 Blue intensity
CH4 000-127 Master dimmer
128-227 Strobe (128=slow / 227=max. speed 23 Hz)
228-255 Master dimmer full on, Strobe off
Addressing has to be done as follows:
001 first device (CH 1-4) *factory default*
005 second device (CH 5-8)
009 third device (CH 9-12)
013 fourth device (CH 13-16) and so on.
This setting is stored even if the device is switched off.
