4.1 Menu Structure
Redback has a two level menu system.
1) The Basic menu provides access to those
settings needed for general day-to-day use of
the Redback dimmer.
2) The Advanced menu gives access to
configuration and operations options required for
more complex operating environments, dimmer
configuration and dimmer diagnostics.
4.2 Control Pad
All menu operations on Redback are accessed
via the five-button control pad and the Menu
scroll keys.
The
ƒ Left and Right „ arrow keys are used to
step between the parameters being set in the
selected function.
The
Up and Down † arrow keys are generally
used to increase or decrease the values for the
selected parameter.
The
3 Flip key is generally used to switch
between text and graphical modes on the LED
display.
The red Menu Up
S and Menu Down T keys
scroll between menu functions.
4.3 Menu LEDs
The menu LEDs W indicate the currently active
menu function.
A double flashing menu LED indicates that an
option is active and merging with basic DMX
control.
The Advanced Menu [ADV] LED double-flashes
to indicate that Advanced functions are
overriding basic dimmer settings, eg Channel 4
set to Non-Dim curve.
4.4 LED Screen
The LED panel has both text and graphical
display modes.
4.4.1 Text Mode
A L L C H
Menu selections and settings are generally
displayed as text.
4.4.2 Graphical Mode
(12 channel display shown)
Dimmer levels are displayed in graphical mode.
This example shows:
Dimmer 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Level Fl 25 50 75 80 33 66 99 95 90 85 5
The height of the column indicates the level of
the dimmer. The brightness of the topmost LED
provides a finer level of indication.
Symbol
Level ~5% ~10% ~15% ~20%
The two additional LEDs on either side of the
level for dimmer 12 indicate that dimmer 12 is
the dimmer currently selected for adjustment.
4.5 Data Entry
Data entry in Redback is achieved using the
arrow keys to step backwards and forwards
through the possible values for the current
setting.
4.5.1 Wrap around
Data entry for many settings has a wrap-around
function. That is, incrementing beyond the
maximum value will step back to the minimum
value and begin incrementing again (eg. Dimmer
10,11,12, 1, 2).
Decrementing below the minimum value will
step back to the maximum value and begin
decrementing again (eg. Bank 3, 2, 1, 42, 41).
4.5.2 Single step entry
Values are changed by a single step with each
press of the arrow key.
4.5.3 Multi step entry
Holding down the arrow key when setting values
steps continuously through the available values
until the limit is reached. The key must be
released and re-pressed to wrap the value
around. The longer a key is held down the faster
the setting will step.
4.5.4 Jump to limit value
The limit value of a setting is selected with a
"double-tap and hold" action on the arrow key.
