display window, simply press the button for the desired channel. The indicator LED for that
channel will light to confirm the new patch. Note that the LED for any other channel will go
out.
The dimmer number is changed by using the submaster buttons. The A button scrolls the
number down. The B button scrolls the number up. The number range is 0 to 192.
Numbers 1 to 192 are for dimmers. 0 is used for a special purpose, the default patch.
The default patch sets dimmer 1 to channel 1, dimmer 2 to channel 2, etc. The patch
"wraps around" so that dimmer 13 is also on channel 1, dimmer 14 is also on channel 2,
dimmer 25 is also on channel 1, and so on. Setting the default patch is done by displaying
the number zero (0) in the display window and pressing the grandmaster button. The
number zero (0) winks out and on again.
AFTER THE SHOW (SAVING DATA)
With the houselights or worklights on, run down the grandmaster, submasters, and all
channel faders. Cut the power source to the controller. All patch and assignment data is
automatically saved in flash memory. It is not necessary to reload the patch performance
after performance.
IN CASE OF TROUBLE
The I.Q.192 is simple and reliable. In the event that things do go wrong, there are a few
possibilites to check before a trip to the factory for repairs. The most common problem
occurs when some lights do not come on at all or come up on the wrong channel:
this is almost certainly due to incorrect patch assignments and may be fixed by
loading the default patch.
If lights don't come on:
1. Check the power to the console. The display should have at least one
character lit in red at all times. Examine the power supply adapter for
damage and be sure it is getting power from a known good source. If the
power comes from the dimmers through the DB15 connector, be sure that it
is +12 to +15VDC on pin 13 and that control common is connected on pin
15.
2. Check the softpatch and submaster / grandmaster assignments.
3. Check the power to the dimmers. Be sure that the loads are plugged in.
Check that all test switches and breakers are set properly. Look at the fuses.
