10. 2 RM SET
Set the two room assignment for each of the dimmer outputs.
This menu is used to assign each of the 12 or 24 dimmer outputs to room “A” or
room “B”. Dimmer outputs assigned to room “A” are controlled via the DMX-A input.
Dimmer outputs assigned to room “B” are controlled via the DMX-B input. This
creates separation within the dimmer rack and makes a single dimmer rack function
as though it is two independent dimmer racks. When used in conjunction with the DC
PATCH menu, the dimmer rack can be configured for sequential DMX control of two
rooms, even if the dimmer room assignments are not sequential.
DMX MODE must be set for 2 ROOM operation for this menu to function.
