Control Menu
SET DMX OPTIONS
SET DMX MODE
From the Front Panel, this menu item allows the user to check (and if necessary change) the RDM
mode.
BASIC Standalone operation, no DMX/RDM (factory default)
MONITOR Standalone, plus support for RDM remote configuration and monitoring
CONTROL Monitor, plus use of a single DMX slot to control Lamp relay
SERVICE Monitor, plus use of three DMX slots to control Lamp, Heater and Fan
Important: Please ensure that the DEC3.3 is NOT left in Service Mode.
SET DMX ADDRESS (in Monitor, Control or Service modes)
Select a DMX starting address in the range 001 to 510
1 – Lamp Relay
In Service Mode an addition two slots are available
2 – Fan Duty Control
3 – Heater Duty Control
Note that the DMX control is designed using a SAFETY pile-on Logic. So the DMX input can only
override automatic settings within safe limits.
SET DMX CURVE
DMX Curves affect the way the fixture relay is controlled in Control Mode.
DMX levels are shown as %.
Response Curve 1 (default)
DMX level 0-25 Relay disabled (open)
DMX level 26-75 No change to relay status
DMX level 76-100 Relay enabled (normally closed)
Response Curve 2
DMX level 0-19 No change to relay status
DMX level 20-40 Relay disabled (open)
DMX level 41-59 No change to relay status
DMX level 60-80 Relay enabled (normally closed)
DMX level 81-100 No change to relay status
SET DMX RESPONSE
DMX Response sets a delay time before DMX Control Mode settings are acted on.
Setting a response delay of a few seconds would prevent unintended fixture relay
state changes in the event of a short accidental change in DMX level.
NOTE: from firmware revision 0.00.100, DEC holds last valid DMX level if DMX is
interrupted.
