23. Trackball
The trackball considerably facilitates the Pan/Tilt positioning of the fixtures. In addition, you can change
the focus with the trackball in the Zoom/Focus section of the console. Only use a trackball that is
recommended by the manufacturer. If damages occur to the lighting control console or to the trackball
due to the use of a trackball not recommended by the manufacturer, JB-lighting will refuse all warranty
claims.
The trackball is preconfigured by the manufacturer. After configuration, each trackball is equipped with a
sticker, on which the positions of the dip switches are illustrated. If this sticker on your trackball is missing,
please contact JB-lighting or your local dealer.
Connect the trackball to the RS-232 interface located on the rear panel of the Licon 1X.
