50 DMX controller operation

Effect operation

The effects reset to their “home” position when the Exterior 600 is powered

on. The Exterior 600 can also be reset from the controller on channel 1. If

the DMX Reset personality is off (see “DMX reset option” on page 47), the

reset command only works if each of the CMY channels is set to a DMX

value from 230 to 232.

Speed

The speed at which effects fade, that is, move from one position to another,

can be controlled in two ways known as tracking control and vector control.

These are explained in “DMX mode” on page 47.

Using DMX mode 2 you are able to switch between tracking and vector

control:

• Tracking control is enabled by setting channel 9, the speed channel, to a

decimal value from 0 to 2. Fades are then programmed using the

controller’s cross-faders. The Exterior 600 has a digital filter algorithm

that averages several updates to ensure smooth movement.

• A vector speed is programmed by setting the speed channel to a decimal

value from 3 (fastest) to 245 (slowest). The speed setting applies to

dimmer and color fades. When using vector control, the controller cross-

fade time, if available, must be 0.

Feedback

An on-the-fly position correction system automatically corrects the position

of the effect wheels. This feature can be disabled by turning effects

feedback off (see “Effect feedback” on page 25), but this is not

recommended.

Shortcuts

The shortcuts setting determines whether the CMY effect wheels take the

shortest path between two positions, crossing the open position if

necessary, or always avoid the open position so that cyan, magenta and

yellow are never completely removed from the light output during scene

changes. The setting may be overridden on the speed channel (only

available in DMX mode 2 - see “DMX mode” on page 47).
