Operation 10
Data Loss
Select the type of data loss. Data Loss is what happens to the fixture's output when the
external control signal (either DMX or data from the Master fixture in a Master/Slave
configuration) is lost.
Instant
As soon as the control signal is lost, the fixture shuts off output and the LED array goes
black.
HLL-2Min
Hold last look for 2 minutes. The fixture retains its last setting for 2 minutes after the control
signal is lost, after which it shuts off output.
Cycling power to the fixture before the 2 minutes have passed will clear the last look and
the LEDs will remain off until control signal is restored.
HLL-4ever
Hold last look forever. After data is lost, the fixture maintains its last look until power is
removed from the fixture or control signal is restored. The last look will not be restored after
power has been cycled.
Plus Seven (Vivid, Lustr+, Fire and Ice, Studio HD)
Plus Seven allows enhanced color-mixing precision when using the RGB, HSI, HSIC, or
Studio profile as a starting point for color selection. Enabling Plus Seven adds another 8
DMX channels of control at the end of the control channels already in use by the fixture. For
example, in the HSIC profile, with Strobe enabled, the fixture uses 6 channels of control.
Enabling Plus Seven adds another 8 channels to the fixture, for a total of 14 channels of
control.
The first additional channel is an activation channel for the Plus Seven function. A value of
0 to 50% (DMX 0 to 129) deactivates Plus Seven. A value of 51 to 100% (DMX 130 to 255)
activates Plus Seven. The remaining 7 additional channels correspond to the individual
colors within the fixture's LED array.
Using Plus Seven Control
The following procedure is performed on your RDM lighting control device.
Step 1: Select a starting color point for the fixture output using the standard control
channels for RGB, HSI, etc.
Step 2: Set the first additional channel to a value between 51 and 100% to activate Plus
Seven.
Step 3: Refine the fixture output by altering one or more of the 7 individual color
channels.
•
The starting point for each color is defined by the original color selection in
step 1.
• The brightness of each color can be increased or decreased from the starting
point to any value between zero and full output.
• Colors already at full output will not change when the Plus 7 channels are
moved up from the starting point, and colors already at zero output will not
change when the Plus 7 channels are moved down from the starting point.
