7.3.6.2 DMX/MEM SWITCH

CONNECT LOSS ACTION

In the event that the DMX input signal is lost, the
“DMX/MEM Switch” can be configured to
respond in different ways.
Press;
[Menu] [DMX Input] [Connect Loss Action].

Note: If [Auto Switch] is greyed out (not
available), then playback via LSCnet has
been disabled from the options menu. This
option can be selected when the EKO is
ONLY to be controlled by DMX. See “Options
Menu” for details.

Pressing [Auto Switch] allows you to turn “Auto
Switch” On or Off.

Make your choice then press [Set].
If Auto switch is On, then if a valid DMX signal is
connected to the EKO, the DMX/MEM Switch
will operate and all dimmer channels whose
control source is set to “switch” will cross fade to
DMX control in the time set by the [Xfade Time]
button. This crossfade can be from 0 to 300
seconds (5 minutes).

Note

: The DMX/MEM Switch can also be

manually

operated from either a suitably

programmed ePlate button or from the LCD

touch screen by pressing [Menu] [Net Setup]
[DMX/MEM Switch].

Pressing [Hold Time] allows you to set the time
that the DMX/MEM Switch will remain in the
DMX position if the DMX signal is lost (if it has
been automatically operated by the presence of
a DMX signal). The Hold Time can be set from 0
to 999 seconds (over 15 minutes) or to Infinite. If
a “Hold Time” other than “Infinite” has been set,
the channels will crossfade to their current
“Memory” settings after the Hold Time expires.

7.3.7 DMX Alarm

Selecting [Menu] [DMX Input] [DMX Alarm]
reveals the following screen.


Pressing [DMX Alarm] allows you to “Disable” or
“Enable” the DMX alarm that occurs whenever
there is no valid DMX signal present.
The “DMX Alarm” is usually disabled in
installations that do not have a DMX input.

Pressing [Alarm Delay] brings up a keypad
screen where you can enter the delay time
between when the EKO is turned ON and when
the “No DMX alarm” occurs. The time can be set
from 0 to 300 seconds or “infinite”.
Setting the “Alarm Delay” time to be slightly
longer than the “boot up” time of your DMX
lighting controller will prevent unwanted alarms
when both the EKO and Lighting Controller are
switched on at the same time.

7.4 MEMORIES MENU

Selecting [Menu] [Memories] provides menus
for;

• Recording

Memories

• Editing

Memories

• Copying

Memories

• Deleting

memories


An EKO dimmer can hold up to 80 memories.
Each memory only contains the intensity levels
for the dimmer channels that you select when
you record (or edit) that memory. If a channel is
not selected in a memory then recalling that
memory will never affect that channel. Selected
channels in a memory can have any level from
0% to 100%.
Memories are recalled from ePlate wall stations.
