timer mode. The range of entry is from 0 to 9.9 seconds for each of these.
14) Backlighting Stay On: This allows you to set the amount of time the back-
lighting will stay on when the Togglodyte is being operated from batteries.
The range of entry is from 0 to 9900 seconds, with 100 seconds resolution.
If you want the backlighting to stay on forever once it is turned on, just set
it to 0000.
14) Battery Stay On:
This allows you to set the amount of time the
Togglodyte will stay on when it is being operated from batteries. The range
of entry is from 0 to 9900 seconds, with 100 seconds resolution. If you
want the Togglodyte to stay on forever once it is turned on, just set it to
0000.
15) Default to Digital/Analog Input:
This allows you to select which mode
the Togglodyte will be in each time it is turned on.
16) Default Digital Channel: This allows you to set the channel number which
will be used for the digital channel each time the Togglodyte is turned on.
17) Digital Default Momentary/Alternate Action: This allows you to set the
input mode for the digitals each time the Togglodyte is turned on.
18) Default Analog Channel: This allows you to set the channel number which
will be used for the analog channel each time the Togglodyte is turned
on.
19) Analog Default Normal/Reversed Direction: This allows you to set the di-
rection used by the analog input each time the Togglodyte is turned on.
20) Default Analog Resolution: This allows you to set the analog resolution
which will be used each time the Togglodyte is turned on.
21) DMX-512 Checksum: This allows you to set whether the checksum used
to verify the quality of DMX-512 data will be used by the Togglodyte on
transmission, reception or both. This sixteen bit checksum is transmitted or
received in the 257th and 258th time slots of the DMX-512 data stream.
This is a extension to the DMX-512 standard which is unique to Gilderfluke
& Company equipment.
22) Write to EEprom/Read from EEprom: Pressing the Setup: select next but-
ton will write the current settings to the TogglodyteÕs EEprom. These settings
will then be loaded into the Togglodyte each time it is turned on. Pressing
the Setup: select last button will read the saved settings from EEprom if
you ever need to get them back after screwing something up really badly.
If you ever need to reload the default settings from the Eprom into the
Togglodyte, press and hold both the Assign and Setup buttons when you
turn the Togglodyte on. This will load the defaults into the Togglodyte, but
not write it the the EEprom (it also puts the Togglodyte into Setup mode).
To save it permanently, you must select the Write to EEprom/Read from
Eprom setting and press the Setup: select next button.
If the Togglodyte is running from batteries, it will normally shut off after
the delay set by the Battery Stay On time. If you want to have the
Togglodyte turn off immediately (well, almost immediately), press the Setup
button to enter this mode, and then press the Assign button. The
Togglodyte will turn off in about 5 seconds.
Light:
Whenever the Togglodyte is running from an external power source, the LCD displayÕs
backlighting is always turned ÔONÕ. When running from the TogglodyteÕs internal battery, it must
be turned ÔONÕ manually. This button is used to do this. The light will turn ÔOFFÕ by itself after the
time delay set under the Setup command. Time delays from 0 to 9900 seconds are available.
