SETUP MENU 3: SETTING OF THE SMOKE MACHINE
4 pieces of dmx equipment with a max. of 8 channels can be controlled besides the units with this controller.
It may as well be a generally used smoke machine, the name of the menu item is derived from here. In this
menu item you can set 4x8 channel values that are being received from the connected smoke machines,
which are in standstill mode. In the automatic mode the active values can be set by keeping the SMOKE
function, which was assigned to a function button, pressed. In standstill mode the values are adjustable after
releasing the button.
Select a smoke machine with buttons 1-4; the LED of the currently active smoke machine will flash and its
serial number and dmx address is shown in the upper line of the display. If the wording „empty place"
appears in the lower line and after the dmx text is no numerical value but only horizontal lines, the place of
the current smoke machine is not active; it is not switched on.
By pressing ESC you can return to the menu; by pressing ENTER you can edit the place of the currently
selected smoke machine.
Press the ENTER button to edit the current place.
You can provide a name to the place of the smoke machine. The controller will automatically offer a name, it
may as well be kept, but it is worth renaming it for the easier identification for those who want to use more
than one smoke machine. It is possible to edit the text of the lower line.
By pressing ESC you can return to the selection of the place of the smoke machine, by pressing ENTER –
after providing the name – you can proceed with the editing.
Adjust the value of the 8 channels with pots 1-8; in the lower line of the display the number and the value of
the channel modified last appears. By pressing buttons 1-8 the set value of any channel may be made to be
written. The settings are implemented instantly which makes the setup easier.
Adjust the DMX address with the UP/DOWN buttons and the DATA-ENTRY pot. If you set an address which
already exists, the dmx value will indicate that by flashing. Such reserved values can be saved to the
settings, however, the controller will not release smoke machine data in the reserved channels.
By pressing ESC you can resume the editing. By pressing ENTER you can select the place of smoke
machine.
If nothing was modified in the menu item, the controller will return to the setup menu by pressing the ESC
button, if any modification has been made, the controller will ask for the confirmation to save the
modification.
By pressing the 'Cancel' (LEFT) button the controller will remain in the menu item. By pressing the 'No'
