4.5 PERSONALITY

DMX INPUT MODE
The Sparx10 provides an embedded radio-DMX receiver. The receiver works with the
JB-Lighting Wireless TRX transmitter. To enable the Sparx10 to receive radio-DMX change the
menu from WIRED (factory default) to WIRED/WIRELESS. The fixture needs to be logged in to
the Wireless TRX transmitter. To log-in press the „Start" button (see also manual Wireless TRX).
The radio channel is displayed when the Sparx10 is logged. The main display will show the in-
tensity of the incoming signal. If the Sparx10 is connected either via DMX cable and radio-DMX,
the cable signal has priority.
DMX MODE
The Sparx10 offers 3 different operating modes (see DMX protocol page 40). Mode 1 is an 8 bit
mode with which you can controll all features of your Sparx10. For using the full range of DMX
channels use the mode 2 - 16 BIT. Use this mode for smoother operation with the RGBW chan-
nels. In order to operate the Sparx10 with less DMX-channels the DMX mode can be set to mode
3. In this mode there are all channels in 8 bit mode without Pan/Tilt.
PAN / TILT
RESOLUTION sets pan and tilt to 8 bit or 16 bit control resolution. The default setting is 16 bit.
If this fine resolution is not required, you can set to 8 bit for quicker operation of pan/tilt values.
The PAN INVERS and TILT INVERS commands invert the direction of pan and tilt. The PAN/TILT
SWAP command sets pan commands to tilt and vice versa.
CURVES
Dimming curves can be adjusted for the dimmer channel and the RGBW channels. There is a
square-law curve for finer control at low intensity and coarser control at high intensity and a li-
near-law curve available.
SHORTEST DISTANCE
This setting is only for the color wheel channel. Switched to ON (default) it always take the shor-
test route from one colour to another in order to simulate a physical color wheel. Switched to
OFF it routes only from white to turquoise and backwards.
CAMERA MODE
For flicker free recording in TV-studios the Sparx10 offers three different modes from 50 Hertz
(PAL, Secam) to 60 Hertz (NTSC). Flex mode is designed, if cameras have a refresh frequen-
cy that makes the 50 or 60Hz settings ineffective. Factory default is 60Hz. Access the menu
PERSONALITY -> CAMERA MODE and choose the required frequency. To confirm press
"ENTER". This can be also controlled with the control channel (channel 5) via lighting desk.
