Run mode
The VR has an internal memory which allows you to store up to 8 positions,
colours and gobos and replay them as a sequence without the need for a
controller.
Connecting the VR up for Run mode
Just connect mains power to the VR. When in run mode, it neither receives nor
transmits DMX. The VR8-R operates in condensed 4-channel mode when used
in Run mode.
Using Run mode
Run mode is started from the options menu. Refer to the options section for
details on how to use it. If you turn off the VR while it is in Run mode, it will
start up in Run mode next time it is turned on. This is ideal for unattended
operation.
Using the VR with Abstract CE equipment
The VR uses different DMX control values to the Abstract CE range units. This
is to allow for features in the VR range which the CE range does not have.
If you are running the VR units in stand-alone mode with CE range units, you
don't need to change any options. The VR units automatically use CE range
values. See the Light Show section for more information on this.
However, if you are using a controller for manual control, the VR has an option
which allows you to make it behave like a CE range unit. You will find this useful
if you are controlling it with a CE controller or if you are using CE range heads
with VR heads.
To make the VR8 behave exactly like a CE unit, set the "GSN" (gobo snap)
option to "ON" and the "CE" option to "ON". (The Gobo Snap option is only
important if you are going to use the CE controller's Light Show mode).

Press or hold down the left or right button to set the pan, tilt, colour and gobo.
If you have Gobo Snap or Colour Snap turned on, the gobo and colour will snap
as you pass through the values, otherwise they will scroll slowly. Press MODE
to go back when all positions are set.
On the VR8-R gobos, the control values move through rotating and non-
rotating positions. See the DMX table at the end for details.
You can amend steps you have already programmed using this method.
To move on to the next step, press MODE briefly.
If you don't want to use all 8 steps, leave the other steps unprogrammed by
pressing MODE briefly for each step until you get back to the menu, or holding
down MODE.
