Remedy
1. Check the power connection and main fuse.
2. Check the safety key switch.
3. Check the external safety switch (e.g. emergency stop).
1. If the display shows a flashing number, for example “001”, no DMX signal is being received. Check the DMX connectors and cables to see if they are prop‐ erly linked.
2. If the display does not flash and there is no response, check the address set‐ tings and DMX polarity.
3. Try using another DMX controller.
4. Check whether the DMX cables run near or parallel to high-voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to the DMX interface circuit.
1. Check to see that the unit is in operation mode ‘Remote Control’. The display has to show r E N .
