6.Controller mode

The fixtures are individually addressed (001-497) on a data link and connected to the controller.The fixtures

respond to the DMX signal from the controller.

6.1DMX addressing

The control panel allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as the first channel from which

the SCAN 575 XT will respond to the controller.

If you set, for example, the address to channel 5, the SCAN 575 XT will use the channel 5 to 20 for control.

Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each SCAN 575 XT correctly and

independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link.

If two, three or more SCAN 575 XT are addressed similarly, they will work similarly.

For address setting, please refer to the instructions under "Addressing"(menu "A001").

Controlling:

After having addressed all SCAN 575 XT , you may now start operating these via your lighting controller.

Note:After switching on, the SCAN 575 XT will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.If

there is no data received at the DMX-input, the display will start to flash "A001" with actually set address.

This situation can occur if:

- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the SCAN 575 XT

- the controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the

input connector.

Note:It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) to the last fixture in the link in order to

ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.

6.2Remotely controllable functions

Lamp

The SCAN 575 XT is to be operated with a HMI 575 W/GS lamp.

A relay inside of the SCAN 575 XT allows you to switch on and off the lamp via the control panel on the front panel

or via your controller without affecting the rest of the lighting.

To switch On/Off the lamp, please refer to "Switching On/Off the lamp " (menu "LAMP").

Note: It is also important to note, that the discharge lamp is cold restrike types, that means, that they have to be

cold before re-striking. For this reason, you have to wait 5 minutes (max. speed of fan must be adjusted) after

having switched Off the lamp before you can switch it back On again. If you try to switch On the lamp within 5

minutes after having switched it Off, the SCAN 575 XT will store this information and automatically ignite the

lamp when the 5 minutes period has expired. The message "HEAt" will appear on the control panel display of the

SCAN 575 XT. If the ignition of the lamp is seven times unsuccessful, on the display will appear "LA.Er.",

meaning that the lamp could be damaged or even missed, or there could be a failure on the ignitor or ballast.
