The VR has a connection panel located at the bottom rear side of the unit.

3-pin XLR connectors are provided for DMX connections. The wiring is pin 3

cold, pin 2 hot, pin 1 grounded. If you are using a controller with a 5-pin DMX

output, you will need to use a 5 to 3 pin adaptor with pins 2 and 3 swapped.

DMX connections can be made to either XLR connector. The last VR in the

line should have a terminating plug fitted to the vacant connector.

The mains inlet is also on this panel and is an IEC plug with integral fuse.

The VR has a user-

friendly control panel

which has a 3-digit

display and 4 buttons.

All the features of the

VR are controlled from

this display panel.

The large button is the

MODE button, used

for

selecting

which

option is to be set.

Hold down the MODE

button to change options. The other three buttons are used to change the

option settings. The function of the button varies depending on the option

being changed.

The display can be set to blank after a period of time by setting the "DBL"

option to ON.

The keypad can be locked to prevent tampering by holding down the mode

button while you turn on the power. You unlock it by repeating this

procedure.

Control indicators

The "dots" on the display indicate what is controlling the VR. If the right hand

dot is lit, a DMX control signal is being received. If the left hand dot is lit,

another VR is sending a light show to this unit. If the middle dot is flashing, the

VR is running from sound triggers.

Always snaps to full gobos. Rotation speed is fixed in this mode.

NB: it is not possible to select these settings on the compact controller. On

the CE controller in-between values can be selected by pressing Gobo and

using the Value slider.

The unit will fade to black if a value of 6-7 is sent, or snap to black if a value of

0-5 is sent. When opening the shutter, the unit will fade if the start value was

6-7 or snap if the starting value was 0-5. See below for notes on fade mode.
