4. Installation and Start Up

4.1. Warnings !

!

Do not expose the console to rain or moisture or damage may occur.

! There are no user serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt any repairs yourself, as doing so will void

the warranty. Please contact Leviton Technical Support if the console is not functioning properly.

! If the console has been stored in a cold environment (below 40ºF), do not turn the power on until it

warms up or else damage may occur.

! Avoid situations that could cause condensation to occur inside the console.

! Make sure that the mains power outlet matches the required voltage for your console.

! Do not operate the console if the power cord is frayed or broken.

! Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord. The ground prong is used to reduce the risk

of electrical shock and fire in case of an internal short.

! Do not operate the console if it becomes damaged in any way.

! Never operate the console with its cover removed.

4.2. Power On

If you observe any irregularity while unpacking the console (due to transportation damage, humidity, etc.)

do not attempt to switch on the console before contacting Leviton Technical Support.

1. Place the console on a flat surface.

2. Connect a proper DMX cable between the DMX-OUT port and the first DMX device (or splitter) in the

lighting system.

3. Connect an external monitor to the VGA connector (if video option ordered) using a standard video

cable.

8. Operating Modes

The console offers four operating modes: Single, Double, Theatre and Manual.

8.1. Single Mode

All faders (C#Ú & S#Ú) operate as individual channel faders. This mode is ideal for cue creation and

working with static scenes. Single mode is useful for editing because all channels are accessible using all

faders. In single mode, the crossfader is active but the submasters are not.

8.2. Double Mode

The upper and lower rows of console faders (C#Ú & S#Ú) operate as identical channel faders. With

Double Mode, the console has two scenes and is ideal for improvised manual sequences. The crossfader

controls the scene change between upper and lower fader rows. Not all functions of the crossfader and

submasters are accessible in this mode.

8.3. Theatre Mode

The upper faders, C#Ú operate as channel faders while the lower faders, S#Ú, operate as submaster

faders. This mode is a conventional working mode for lighting consoles, where all features are available.

editing is only accessible via the keypad.
