code to resume normal operation.

all scene memory.
6.2. Scene Playback
The scenes stored in the VX dimmer can be recalled for emergency backup, or for use without a
control board. The scenes are recalled with the DMX switches set to addresses beginning with
700:
1) Set the first DMX digit to "7"
2) Set the second two digits to a number between 1 and 10.
3) Press the "enter" button to start a one second fade to the memorized scene. If a scene
is already being output from memory, pressing the "Enter" button will start a one second
crossfade from scene to scene. Memorized scenes will pile-on with current DMX or
analog scenes from controller.
4) To resume normal operation, set the DMX switches to a valid address 0-512.
5) Scene 700 is a pre-recorded blackout, and can be used to fade out any of the
recorded scenes.
7. Service and Maintenance
The VX dimmer racks are designed to make troubleshooting and repair of the system fast and
easy. LED indicators are used to pinpoint problems to a defective module. The suspected module
can be removed without tools, and the system repaired in minutes by installing replacement parts.
7.1. Recommended Service
VX dimmers, like other dense-pack dimmers, needs an unrestricted supply of fresh, cool air. The
pack has been designed to operate at ambient temperatures up to 40 degrees Celsius, or about
100 degrees Fahrenheit. When the dimmers are used in very dusty conditions, it may be
necessary to remove and clean the air inlet filters periodically.
