DMX lamp features
Matrix sine wave technology offers two additional features to enhance lamp
performance; Lamp Tuning and Lamp Saver.
Lamp Tuning is a global feature which provides a load learning facility whereby the
Matrix dimmer records the current after the lamp has been set to between 90-100%
for 3 seconds. This data is then used to ‘tune’ the dimmer curve to ensure that all
lamps respond the same, and there is not an inconsistency in dimming between a
25W lamp and a 5kW lamp on different dimmers.
Lamp Saver is a global feature which only applies preheat if the channel has been
used after power up.
