DMX OPERATION
If the DMX option is installed in the TL-4008 then it will transmit both DMX and LMX signals simultaneously.
The DMX-512 connection does NOT provide console power therefore an external power supply (provided with
units having DMX option) must be used.
QUICK START INSTRUCTIONS
The bottom cover of the TL-4008 contains brief instructions for using scenes and chases. The instructions are not
intended as a substitute for this manual and should be viewed as "reminders" for operators who are already
familiar with TL-4008 operation.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
TROUBLESHOOTING
Check that the multiplex cable is not defective.
To simplify troubleshooting - reset the unit to provide a known set of conditions.
Make sure the dimmer address switches are set to the desired channels.
OWNER MAINTENANCE
The best way to prolong the life of your TL-4008 is to keep it dry, cool, clean and covered when not in use.
The unit exterior may be cleaned using a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent/water mixture or a mild spray-
on type cleaner. DO NOT SPRAY ANY LIQUID directly on the unit. DO NOT IMMERSE the unit in any liquid or
allow liquid to get into the controls. DO NOT USE any solvent based or abrasive cleaners on the unit.
The faders are not cleanable. If you use a cleaner in them – it will remove the lubrication from the sliding
surfaces. Once this happens it is not possible to re-lubricate them.
The white strips above the faders are not covered by the TL-4008 warranty. If you mark on them with any
permanent ink, paint etc. it is likely that you will be unable to remove the markings without damaging the strips.
There are no user serviceable parts in the unit. Service by other than Lightronics authorized agents will void your
warranty.
