Dipswitches
The SkyScan unit operates in 4 different basic control modes:
1. Calibration.
2. Full Automatic, programmable via dip switch settings.
3. DMX-512 control using one or eight DMX channels.
4. PC-Rs232 control using the SkyLink PC program for Windows.
Note: Do NOT connect DMX-512 signal cable at the same time as the Rs-232 PC cable. Connecting them
will not damage anything but both signals will become unusable until one or the other is removed.
Switch #10 always selects the Primary Mode of operation as:
#10 = PC
#10 = DMX-512
Auto and Calibration are default until signal pattern recognition determines if DMX or PC control signals are
present to cause an override.
Default means "Pre-determined by Design".
Once an active control signal becomes present then the alternates are ignored until power is removed and
restored.
