^¥ TO SCROLL

Press [ENTER] to select the SETUP mode. There are three options. Use the [Ç] and [É] keys to scroll
through the selections and the [ENTER] key to select the displayed option.

Software Version

Entering the SETUP mode first displays the Gizmo software version which is shown as the release date
for the installed software. New software is installed by replacing the socketed processor chip in the Gizmo.

Set Display Mode

Entering this menu allows you to select the format which the Gizmo will use to display level information.
Selecting the percent mode (the default) causes all levels to be displayed as percentages from 0 - FL.
Selecting the decimal mode causes all levels to be displayed as absolute DMX values from 0 - 255. The
percentage mode is more “human readable”, while the decimal mode allows for more precise level setting.
The decimal mode also allows the propeller heads amongst us to confuse the artists. The selected display
mode is stored in the Gizmo’s non-volatile memory so it will remember your preferred setting when the unit
is powered off and on again.
