six-channel fixtures and store 12 sets of chases with up to 24 steps each. Ideal for
6-channel fixtures, it has rugged guitar pedal-style buttons that can trigger Automated
and Sound-Active modes, as well as control chases and scenes. LED displays make it
easy to navigate the controller in any environment. Improved software offers more
versatility and makes it simpler than ever to shift between scenes or to blackout fixtures
instantly.
Mounting
The Foot-C 2 is designed with 4 rubber feet so it can be placed on a table top for
programming, and then floor-mounted for playback. The product is not rack-mountable.
Programming
Concepts
The Foot-C 2 uses DMX addressing and values to control products. See Fixture
Addressing for more information.
Looks are created by using the faders to send DMX values to the products. The looks
are saved into scenes or as steps in chases. The scenes and chases are played back
at different speeds and with different types of triggers.
•Looks are created in Program mode. The products are selected with the fixture
buttons. The knobs are moved to control the products and create looks. Then the
looks are saved to scenes or chases with the program button.
See Programming for more information.
•Scenes and chases are played back in Playback mode. Timing of playback is set
with the speed and time functions, audio triggers, the Tap Sync function, or MIDI
input. See Playback for more information.
Looks can be created in playback mode, but they cannot be saved.

3. SETUP
AC Power
The Foot-C 2 has an external auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input
voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the product’s power
requirements (
circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on
the label affixed to the power supply’s back panel, or refer to the product’s specifications
chart. The listed current rating indicates the product
’s average current draw under
normal conditions.
•
Always connect the product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse).
Make sure the product
has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk
of electrocution or fire.
•To eliminate
unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of
non-
use completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by
unplugging it.
•Never connect the product
to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit,
even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
Mounting
The Foot-C 2 is designed only for floor or table mounting. Make sure adequate
ventilation is provided around the product.
Setting Up the
Board
In order to use the controller it must be connected to the products with DMX cables and
the products must be addressed correctly. The sections below described DMX cabling
and DMX addressing.
DMX Cabling
DMX cabling is required to get DMX values from the board to the products. Connect the
DMX cable from the DMX Out of the board to the DMX In of the first product in the rig.
Then connect another DMX cable from the DMX Out of the first product in the rig to the
DMX In of the next product. Continue connecting until all the products are connected.
DMX Cabling
Diagram
Fixture
Addressing
The Foot-C 2 uses DMX addressing. The Foot-C 2 controls lights with specific DMX
addresses and the lights must be addressed correctly for the Foot-C 2 to control them.
More than one light can have the same DMX address, but
lights with the same DMX
address should be the same type of light.
Below is a chart showing the Foot-C 2
DMX addresses and the corresponding fixture
buttons:
