SnakeSys User Manual 24 / 44
Menu Item Function
Clear All Used to clear all T2 settings, and restore the entire unit to
factory default settings. The T2 will automatically reboot
after default settings are restored.
Backlight Used to set the backlight timeout for the LCD display. This
is for how long the backlight stays on after a button has
been pressed.
Contrast Used to set the LCD display contrast.
Stealth Used to enable Stealth Mode on the T2. When the unit is in
Stealth Mode the network and DMX LED’s are disabled to
make the unit appear darker. You can also make the unit
darker if you enable the backlight timeout feature. If you
require the unit to be completely dark then that can be
achieved by using the Led Status option on MagicQ and
selecting Off. The LED status option will turn off all light
from the unit including the display, however the feature
currently is only available in ChamNet mode.
Reboot Used to completely reboot the T2 unit.
4.5 RDM Support
The T2 hardware supports full RDM functionality, however RDM support does not currently exist in the current version of the
T2 firmware. RDM support will be implemented in a future firmware release.
4.6 ChamNet Mode Information
In ChamNet Mode the SnakeSys T2 is configured and controlled from the Net Manager within MagicQ.
• DATA LED
The red DATA LED on the SnakeSys T2 indicates that valid ChamNet network data is being received by the unit.
• ONLINE LED
The green ONLINE LED on the SnakeSys T2 indicates that the unit has recently sent T2 device information to MagicQ and
should have consequently appeared as online in the MagicQ Net Manager.
Note
The T2 unit will remember the settings that you make in MagicQ Net Manager. Please allow at least 40 seconds for the unit to
store the information into flash memory before removing the power. If the unit is left in MagicQ ChamNet mode it will boot up
with the settings that you made previously in Net Manager. (MagicQ will not be required to be connected via network to retain
the settings).
4.7 T2 Truss Mounting
Caution
If the T2 unit is installed into Truss using clamps then additional care should always be taken to ensure that the unit
is installed with an adequate safety chain firmly attached through the T2 rear chassis. Care should also be taken to
ensure that the units clamp is securely fastened to the Truss, and only T2 clamp mounts supplied by ChamSys Ltd are
recommended.
