7.5 Test sequences
Use this menu to to run a demo-test sequences without an external controller, which will show you some possibilities of
using ArcWash Recessed 136 RGB.
7.6 Stand-alone setting
The xtures on a data link are not connected to the controller but can execute pre-set programs which can be different for
every xture. “Stand-alone operation” can be applied to the single xture or to multiple xtures operating synchronously.
Synchronous operation of multiple xtures requires that they must be connected on a data link and one of them is set as
a master (“MSt“) and the rest as the slaves (“SLA“). Up to 32 xtures can be connected in master/slave chain.Only one
xture can be set as the master.
Note: Disconect the xtures from the DMX controller before master/slave operating, otherwise data collisions can occur
and the xtures will not work properly!
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) into the input of the master xture and into the output of
the last slave xture in the data link in order to ensure proper transmission on the data link.
Operating multiple xtures in stand-alone mode.
1.Select one xture and set it as a master and select a program which is to be played (Menu path: "St.AL."--->"MASt.").
2.The rest of the xtures set as slaves (Menu path: "St.AL."--->"SLA.").
3.Build the master/slave chain.(See chapter “DMX-512 connection and Master/Slave connection“).
Audi --- Music trigger.Select this function to enable the sound control of the running programs via the built-in micro-
phone.
EPG1-PrG.6 --- Fixture programs.By pressing [ENTER] selected program will run in a loop.
Auto. --- Automatically playback. If this function is on, the xture in DMX mode remembers last running program and
this program will run after switching the xture on .
Edit --- Editing program.The xture includes 6 built-in programs (PrG.1-PrG.6) and 3 free editable programs (EPG.1-
EPG.3) each up to 30 steps.Every program step has a fade time-the time during which effects (except pan/tilt) go to the
current step and a standing time-the time,during which effects last in the current step.
Programming procedure:
1. Enter "Edit." menu
2. Press [UP] or [DOWN] to select the desired program which you wish to edit and press [ENTER].
3. Press [UP] or [DOWN] to select the desired program step ("St.01" - "St.30") and press [ENTER].
4. Press [UP] or [DOWN] to select the desired item and press [ENTER] button.Now you can edit by using [UP] or [DOWN]
buttons the DMX values of selected item:
P.End. - a total number of the program steps (value 1-30).This value must be set
before start programming(e.g. if you want to create program with 10 steps,set
P.End=10).

Press [ENTER]-button to conrm adjusted value.
5.Repeat steps 3 and 4 for next prog.step.If you want to copy current prog. step to the next prog.step, select option
"COPY."and conrm it by pressing [ENTER].
