General remarks
The JB-lighting Licon1 was designed to control fixtures and dimming channels in a fast and effective way.
It is capable of control of a maximum of 32 fixtures with 25 control channels and 7 fixed value channel each.
Additional control on 96 dimming channels.
The Licon1 allows direct access to fixtures and parameters. Each key is labelled to make it easier to use the
desk even for untrained operators.
Sequences and chases are programmed by means of presets, which allows fast and effective programming.
The Licon1 offers the opportunity to work with an effect generator, to create chases at a fraction of time,
normally required.
Selection of fixtures and change of parameters or time limits even when a show is active.
The desk can be synchronized via MIDI, SMPTE or run music animated. It is possible to link several desks if
a larger number of DMX-channels is required.
The Licon1 offers an integrated CD-Rom drive for music cds. Programming of a music synchronized show
without the use of other devices such as timecode clock ect.

2 Configuration (Setup)
To control any lighting equipment the configuration of the desk has to be set first.
There is a number of fixture setups available in the library. If the required data is not available a configuration
can be self defined.
Press softkey CONFIG to enter configuration menu.
àchapter 2.1 L-User
2.1 L-USER / Configuration of a self-defined fixture setup
Enter menu by pressing softkey L-USER.
There are 20 different fixture setups available.

www.jb-lighting.de -9-
Use softkeys to activate the required paramteter
Insert fixture data by using the keys in the Cues/Chases
/Sequence section.
Use arrow key to clear field first.
NAME: Name of moving-light (up to 20 characters)
S-Name: Short name. Will be displayed later on ( up to 6 characters)
TYPE: Choose type of fixture
àMirror: scan
àHead: moving head
Press TYPE, until desired type is displayed.
DMXCH: Enter dmx protocol of fixture.
For each fixture 25 control channels and 7 fixed channels are available.
Control channels: standard dmx channels
Fixed channels : dmx channels which are set at a certain dmx value. Can not be adjusted
later on (lamp on/off for instance).
After choosign DMXCH the display looks like this
Use the encoder wheel which is located in the middle to enter the
functions of the fixture.
Use the encoder wheel located on the left hand side to switch to
next DMX channel.
The name of the functions displayed match the name of the keys in
the feature-selection block.
Channels with no function have to be entered as fixted channels
with a DMX value at 000.
To invert a DMX channel press softkey INVERT. (Not for pan and
tilt movement

Then enter assignment of shutter and dimmer as they are administered separately
•Adjustment of fixtures with shutter and dimmer one one channel
Assign feature shutter to the DMX channel. Press softkey BRIGHT and BLACKO to assign dimmer and
shutter (blackout) function to the same DMX channel. For confirmation please check display. There will be a
“B” and an “O” shown for brightness (dimmer) and blackOut (shutter)
•Fixtures with separat DMX channels for dimmer and shutter:
Assign dimmer and shutter to the required DMX channels. Assign blackout function to shutter channel by
pressing softkey BLACKO. An “O” will be displayed.
Assign dimmer function to dimmer channel by pressing softkey BRIGHT. A “B” will be displayed.
•Fixed channels:
Fixed channels are required for two different applications. First use fixed channels, when the dmx-value
stays the same all the time and is not going to be changed during the process of programming.
Second use fixed channels when the DMX protocol of the fixture has some not occupied channels.
To enter DMX value of a fixed channel use encoder wheel located on the right hand side.
INVERS Use softkey invers to invert all functionas exept pan and tilt movement.
Use function if a channel works contrary to all other, for instant if the iris is open fully at a
DMX-value of “0” and closed at “255”.
After the inversion it will be closed at a DMX-value of 0 and open at 255.
CLEAR Use softkey CLEAR to delete inversion
P-ANGL: Maximum of pan movement amplitude. Use encoder wheel to enter data. If this value is
entered wrongly it might cause problems when working with preprogrammed moving
patterns later on.
T-ANGL: Maximum of tilt movement amplitude. Use encoder wheel to enter data. If this value is
entered wrongly it might cause problems when working with preprogrammed moving
patterns later on.
BLACK-L: Enter DMX value to adjust the level at which a black-out will be activated when shifting a
fader later on. (Blackout-Level) A DMX-value of 5 will serve most applications quite well.
