Load Dimming Configuration

The “Load Dimming Configuration” operation provides you with tools to load an existing

rack configuration from a removable media device into the Echo ACP and DRd dimming

electronics.

Step 1:

Install a removable media device (either SD media card or USB flash drive) into

the correct slot on the front of the ACP.

Step 2:

Scroll to “Load Dimming Config” from the “File Operations” menu and press enter
(

). The “Load Dimming Config” menu lists the installed and available

removable media.

Step 3:

Scroll to select the desired or available media type and press enter (

). All valid

dimming configurations available for loading are displayed.

Default dimming configurations are named similar to DRd12_1. Only valid

DRd configuration files are shown.

Folders, indicated in brackets “<text>”, may also display in the menu list.
Select the folder and press enter (

) to display the configuration files stored

within the selected folder. To return to the root directory scroll to select <...>
and press (

).

). When

the load process is complete, the display returns to the “File Operations” menu.

Rack Size Mismatch

When you have loaded a dimming configuration that differs in rack size from the original

rack configuration, you will be prompted with a “Rack Size Mismatch” error. Before

proceeding, you are required to select an action. Select “OK” to continue loading the new

mismatched configuration file or select “Cancel” to cancel the load process.

If “Ok” is the selected action and the mismatch occurred due to the new configuration

having fewer dimmers than the original, reference

Dimmer Setup, page 27

to configure the

“extra” dimmers from the default properties.

This menu option is unavailable when the Emergency input is active.
