Other features of the TL-4016 include: grand master fader, split dipless crossfader, momentary "bump" buttons,
and blackout control. Two 23 step chases may be run simultaneously for complex patterns. Chase rate is set by
tapping the rate button at the desired rate. Scenes and chases stored in the unit are not lost when the unit is
turned off
INSTALLATION
The TL-4016 control console should be kept away from moisture and direct sources of heat.
LMX CONNECTIONS: Connect the unit to a Lightronics (or compatible) dimmer using a multiplex control cable
with 3 pin XLR connectors. The TL-4016 is powered by the dimmer which it is connected to. It may also be
powered via an optional external power supply. The unit will operate with dimmers in both the NSI/SUNN and
Lightronics modes. All dimmers connected to the unit MUST be in the SAME mode.
DMX CONNECTIONS: Connect the unit to a DMX dimmer using a control cable with 5 pin XLR connectors. The
DMX-512 connection does NOT provide console power therefore an external power supply (provided with units
having DMX option) must be used.
