value), ‘4’ (set the value to 50%), and ‘1’ (decrease the value)
keys.
b) The ‘Maximum Scale’ endpoint is set using the ‘8’ (increase the
value), ‘5’ (set the value to 50%), and ‘2’ (decrease the value)
keys.
c) The ‘Forced Outputs’ is set using the ‘9’ (increase the value), ‘6’
(set the value to 50%), and ‘3’ (decrease the value) keys. When
this value has been disabled, it will appear as a ‘n/a’ on the
command line. The ‘Forced Outputs’ can be used to move a
figure when a Togglodyte or other source of DMX-512 data is
not available.
The current values for these variables are displayed on the com-
mand line as they are changed. When you have finished making the
adjustments, hitting the
will save write these variables to the EEprom and display them on the
table on the main part of the screen.
The basic object when you are setting the endpoints for a move-
ment are 1) to command the movement to one extreme and then
set that endpoint to where you want it, and 2) command the move-

1) Select the output you want to adjust: You can do this
using the ‘j) Output to Test & Adjust’, ‘n) Next’ or ‘l) Last’
commands. The output must be one of the on-board
ones. The arrow will now be pointing at the output you
are going to adjust.
2) Select this command by typing ‘u’: The current values
will now appear on the command line.
3) Set the output to either one of the extremes of posi-

(100%/255/0FFh).

b) If you only have the computer: Use the ‘3’, ‘6’ and
‘9’ keys on your keypad to force the movement to
either the minimum position (0%/0/00h) or maxi-
