"Fixture Mode" allows
the user to turn lamps
on and off with an
“inside-out” pattern
from a dimmer board.
Dimmer level - Lamp response
Each ballast has 5 addresses. Addresses 001-004 control the lamps.
Sliding the fader on the dimmer board from 0 ~ 100 controls the number of
lamps that are on within a fixture. Address 005 controls the STD setting.
Note: The lamps may respond ± 4 channel levels, depending on the dimmer
board. To control the STD select feature, program the 5
th
address (005) at full.
Setting the dimmer value under 49% or not programming address 5 will
restore the HO setting.
4Bank Lamp Sequence
One of the best applications for the "Fixture Mode" is when lighting Blue and
Green Screens or large Cycloramas.
For example: One row of fixtures can be set to Fixture mode on a common
address. When the fader on the dimmer board is brought up or down all the
Fixtures on that address will have the same lamps turned on.

To Control Light Levels from Multiple Fixtures:
1) Set ballast to Fixture mode.
2) Set all ballast addresses to a common address (eg. 001).
3) Set address 005 if the STD setting is required.
4) Set end of line switch to “I” on the last unit in the DMX chain.
