Fixture Mode


Setting the unit to
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 2ft setting.

Note: The lamps may respond ± 4 channel levels, depending on the dimmer
board. To control the 2ft select feature, program the 5

th

address (005) at full.

Setting the dimmer value under 49% or not programming address 5 will
restore the 4ft 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.

2 ( Yellow )
1 ( Black )
3 ( Blue )

To Control Light Levels From Multiple Fixtures:

1) Set ballast to Fixture mode.
2) Set all ballast addresses to a common address (e.g. 001).
3) Set address 005 if the 2ft setting is required.
4) Set end of line switch to “I” on the last unit in the DMX chain.
