Patch Dimmers
You may use “and thru” functions to specify a selection or range of dimmers for patch
editing. Once your selection is made, press enter (
) to accept the selection and begin
editing. To remove the last selected dimmer from the selection, press the back button ( ).
Continue pressing the back button ( ) to clear all undesired dimmers from the selection.
Step 1:
Make a selection of dimmers for patching using either the touch wheel or the
numeric button pad. Press enter (
) to accept the selection.
•
In the examples below, the start address for a dimmer range selection is
highlighted and ready for editing. Each additional dimmer added to the
selection using the “and thru” functions adds to the selection. When a hi-
resolution Hi 16 bit dimmer is selected, both the high and low addresses are
selected for editing.
Step 2:
Assign a DMX address to the first dimmer in the selection using the scroll wheel
or the numeric keypad, the press enter (
). The focus changes back to the
dimmer number.
•
Assigning a DMX address to the first selected dimmer automatically assigns
consecutive numbering to the remaining selected dimmers based on the first
entry of the selection.
•
When dimmer doubling is enabled for a selected dimmer, the focus changes
to the second address (b) selection for the affected dimmers.
Step 3:
As needed, assign a DMX address to the second address (b) of the dimmer
doubled dimmer in the list and press enter (
) to accept the selection. The focus
changes back to the dimmer number.
Patch sACN Input
For example, assume the system is configured with 4 sACN universes (named 1, 2, 3, and
4, configured in the Arch Setup >
menu).
If two sources are available for universe 1, and two sources for universe 2, and 2 sources
for universe 3, nothing is controllable on universe 4 until one of the other six sources goes
away.
N o t e :
sACN patch editing only allows specification of the 4 sACN universes configured
for this Echo ACP. sACN 1 is available by default, the valid range is 1 - 63999. To
associate sACN universes to this Echo ACP, reference
