Dimmer Setup
The “Dimmer Setup” menu provides the ability to set each dimmer’s module type and
properties individually, one dimmer at a time, or set by a range of dimmers using the (and)
and (thru) buttons on the numeric keypad. The range of dimmers cannot exceed the
number of dimmers in the host enclosure.
Each object in the “Dimmer Setup” menu allows you to specify alternative dimmer
properties about each dimmer channel including the dimmer module type, the mode of
operation, curve, etc. Refer to
Dimmer Module Defaults, page 65
for a listing of standard
dimmer properties.
Step 1:
Scroll to select a dimmer or use the numeric keypad to specify a range of
dimmers. Press enter (
) to edit the selected dimmer properties.
Step 2:
Scroll to “Module Type” property and press enter (
). The “Module Type” menu
will display all possible dimmer module types available for the host rack and
voltage.
Step 3:
Scroll to select the desired module type from the available list and press enter
(
). The display returns to Dimmer Setup.

When specifying a range of dimmers, properties that are not equal among the
selected dimmers will display as empty property fields. Any edits made to the
empty property fields are applied to the entire selected range of dimmers.
Specifying a different module type defaults all dimmer properties for the selected
range.
