7.4 Recording Memories
Memories are recorded (or edited) from the
e24V3’s LCD touch screen.
See section 6.4 Memories Menu for details on
how to record memories.
A e24V3 dimmer can hold up to 80 memories.
Each memory only contains the intensity levels
for the dimmer channels that you select when
you record (or edit) that memory. If a channel is
not selected in a memory then recalling that
memory will never affect that channel.
This is an important concept.
It means you have to decide whether or not you
want a channel to be in a memory. Fading up a
memory will not necessarily replace the current
output of the dimmer with the memory you have
just faded up. Only the channels in the memory
you have just faded up will change. Any
channels that are not in the new memory will
remain as they were. Selected channels in a
memory can have any level from 0% to 100%.
Memories are recorded (or edited) by either;
• Selecting channels and giving them a
level via the touch screen controls.
or
• Taking a ‘snapshot’ of the current DMX
input levels. These levels can then be
edited if required.
7.5 Memory Recovery after Power
Loss
When the power is restored to an e24V3 after a
power loss, channels controlled by DMX will
immediately respond to the current DMX levels.
However, channels controlled by Memories
respond differently depending upon the duration
of the power loss.
• If the power returns within 2 hours, the
memory channels will return to their last
memory levels.
• If the power returns after 2 hours, memory
channels will remain OFF. To restore output
you must recall the required memory.
7.6 Recalling Memories
Memories are recalled from ePlate wall stations.
7.7 Pre-Programmed ePlates
ePlates are shipped from the factory with pre-
programmed standard configurations.

7.8 Pre-programmed Memory Control
The buttons on the “Pre-Programmed” ePlates
all recall a different memory number at full level.
Question: If every button recalls a memory at
full level, how do you turn a memory off?
Answer: You playback a different memory
containing the same channels but with all of their
channel levels set to 0% in that memory.
When a memory is recorded, it contains
selected channel(s) at any level (including zero
level). Therefore, if memory 1 contains channels
at a level of 80%, pressing button 1 on an ePlate
will fade up those channels to 80%.
If memory 2 contains the same channels at a
level of 0%, pressing button 2 on an ePlate will
fade those channels off.
For example;
