mode only when the “Module Type” is ELV or when using reverse phase

controlled module types such as the ELV10, HELV5, AELV5, EELV6.

Dimmer Doubled Mode when the rack type is DRd48 with an Auxiliary Rack

or the rack voltage is 240V, Dimmer Doubled is not displayed for selection.

When Dimmer Doubled Mode is selected, properties for Transformer Mode

N o t e :

Each module type has a default set of properties such as the firing mode, dimmer

curve, etc. When changing a module type, all dimmer properties for the specified

dimmer(s) also change to match the new module type property defaults. You may

edit the dimmer properties individually. Refer to

Dimmer Module Defaults, page 65

for a listing of standard dimmer properties.

N o t e :

The listing below identifies relatively important information when setting these

additional properties. Reference

Dimmer Properties, page 71

for detailed

information about all dimmer properties.

• When the Voltage Reg: property is set to Off, the Max Scale Voltage property is

not displayed.

• When Dimmer Doubled is the selected firing mode, the DMX Res: property

automatically defaults to “Lo 8 bit”.

• Each dimmer must be assigned to a Space. By default, all dimmers are assigned

to Space 1. Spaces are created in the Arch Setup menu.

• By default, all Zones of Space 1 are assigned to the first 16 consecutive dimmers

in the same Space.

• By default, all Circuit numbers default to match the dimmer number.
• The circuit “Name” is a read only property.

N o t e :

When exiting the “Dimmer Setup” using the back button ( ), and the changes

made to dimmers / dimmer properties have affected the rack DMX input patch /

sACN input patch, a dialog will display requesting confirmation.

Select to fix the patch issues through the dialog or press the back button ( ) to

ignore the dialog and return to the “Dimming Setup” menu.
