4. Presione el botón Tap/Disp para alternar entre
“PL.XX” y “PH.XX”. “PL.XX” representa el byte
bajo o canal no, que aparece generalmente
como el canal pan no. “PH.XX” representa el
byte alto o canal grueso, que aparece general-
mente como el canal pan. Seleccione “PH.XX”,
mantenga presionado el botón MODE y luego
presione el botón SCENE que se corresponda
con el canal pan de su equipo. Por ejemplo, si
en su equipo el canal pan es el 1, presionará el
botón SCENE 1. Para obtener más información,
reérase al cuadro de dispositivos DMX. Si su
equipo cuenta con un canal pan no, presione
el botón Tap/Disp. En la pantalla visualizará
“PL.XX”. Mantenga presionado el botón MODE
y luego presione el botón SCENE que se co-
rresponda con el canal pan no de su equipo.
Por ejemplo, si en su equipo el canal pan no es
el 2, presionará el botón SCENE 2.
5. Presione el botón BANK arriba/abajo para
alternar entre “TL.XX” y “TH.XX”. “TL.XX” rep-
resenta el byte bajo o canal no, que aparece

los equipos se moverán de forma opuesta el
uno del otro. A esta función se la conoce normal-
mente como “Pan/tilt hacia atrás”.
5. Presione el botón Tap/Disp para alternar entre
“PL.XX” y “PH.XX”. “PL.XX” representa el byte
