DMX controller to create a scene, then save (capture) the scene into a
fixture’s presets to play back the scene without the controller.

After creating a scene with your DMX controller, follow the instructions
below for each fixture on which you want to capture preset scenes:

1.

Press and hold the

button until “ADDR” appears on the LED
display.

2.

Using the and arrow buttons, scroll to the “PRST” menu
and press the button to select the “PRST” menu.

3.

Using the and arrow buttons, scroll to the “CAPT” menu
and press the button to select the “CAPT” menu.

4.

Using the and arrow buttons, scroll to the scene you
want to copy the preset scene to (destination scene) and press the
button.

Pressing the button will copy the DMX-512 controller’s preset
scene to the selected scene on your fixture’s on-board 16 scene
memory. When the fixture finishes the capture successfully, “DONE”
will appear briefly in the fixture’s LED display.

Note

You must use the fixture’s on-board scene memory to
manually select values for the XFAD, DLAY, and TIME
constructs, since a DMX controller will not transmit
those construct values. For more information on using
the fixture’s on-board scene memory, refer to the
