Features

Product

Description

Mounting

Programming

Concepts

·Controls up to 6 fixtures, up to 36 channels total

·Designed to work with fixtures that have up to 6 channels

·Guitar pedal-style buttons

·Create and control a full light show of chases, scenes, fades, and more

·Built-in Tap Sync, Auto, and Sound modes

·MIDI input

·Direct audio line input for triggering scenes

·Fits in the CHS-25 VIP Gear Bag

Foot-C 2 is a compact 36-channel DMX foot controller that can control up to 6 six-channel fixtures and store 12 sets of chases with up to 24 steps each. Ideal for 6-channel fixtures, it has rugged guitar pedal-style buttons that can trigger Automated and Sound-Active modes, as well as control chases and scenes. LED displays make it easy to navigate the controller in any environment. Improved software offers more versatility and makes it simpler than ever to shift between scenes or to blackout fixtures instantly.

The Foot-C 2 is designed with 4 rubber feet so it can be placed on a table top for programming, and then floor-mounted for playback. The product is not rack-mountable.

The Foot-C 2 uses DMX addressing and values to control products. See Fixture

Addressing for more information.

Looks are created by using the faders to send DMX values to the products. The looks are saved into scenes or as steps in chases. The scenes and chases are played back at different speeds and with different types of triggers.

·Looks are created in Program mode. The products are selected with the fixture buttons. The knobs are moved to control the products and create looks. Then the looks are saved to scenes or chases with the program button.

See Programming for more information.

·Scenes and chases are played back in Playback mode. Timing of playback is set with the speed and time functions, audio triggers, the Tap Sync function, or MIDI input. See Playback for more information.

Looks can be created in playback mode, but they cannot be saved.

The Foot-C 2 has an external auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the power supply’s back panel, or refer to the product’s specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions.

·Always connect the product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.

·To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

·Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.

The Foot-C 2 is designed only for floor or table mounting. Make sure adequate ventilation is provided around the product.

In order to use the controller it must be connected to the products with DMX cables and the products must be addressed correctly. The sections below described DMX cabling and DMX addressing.

DMX cabling is required to get DMX values from the board to the products. Connect the DMX cable from the DMX Out of the board to the DMX In of the first product in the rig. Then connect another DMX cable from the DMX Out of the first product in the rig to the DMX In of the next product. Continue connecting until all the products are connected.

5. PLAYBACK

Playback

Mode

Chase

Playback

Speed

Fade

Playback is used to play back saved scenes and chases. It is the mode to use when the show is happening. In playback mode, the saved scenes and chases are triggered to play back. There are four playback types:

·Scene Playback - Playing back saved scenes.

·Chase Playback - Playing back saved chases.

·MIDI Playback - Using a MIDI input signal to play back scenes and chases.

·Live Playback - Controlling the outputs without the use of scenes or chases. Not recommended.

To operate any of the modes that offer amber, white, or UV color options, the selected fixture must be capable of outputting that corresponding color light.

Chase playback triggers a specific chase (1–12) for playback with auto, audio, MIDI, or Tap Sync triggering. The middle display shows the selected chase, the current step, and the total number of steps in that chase.

To enter Chase Playback mode, press <MODE>. Chase 1 will automatically be selected. Use <UP> and <DOWN> to select a chase. Press <ENTER (TAPSYNC)>.

There is no way to manually trigger the steps in a chase in playback mode.

The speed setting determines how long each step in a chase will be active in Auto mode, before the next step is triggered.

To set speed, do the following:

1.Play back a chase.

2.Press and hold <BLACKOUT / FUNCTION> until SPEEd 0–16 shows on the middle display.

3.Use <UP> and <DOWN> to select the desired speed. 0 will halt auto triggering. 1–16 is in order from slowest to fastest speeds.

4.Press<ENTER (TAPSYNC)> until the display shows the current scene or chase to exit speed setting.

The fade setting determines how long it takes one scene or step to change, or fade, to the next scene or step.

To set fade, follow the instructions below:

1.Play back a scene or chase.

2.Press and hold <BLACKOUT / FUNCTION> until FAdE 0–16 shows on the middle display.

3.Use <UP> and <DOWN> to select the desired fade. 0 will set the scenes or steps to snap immediately to the next when triggered. 1–16 is in order from fastest to slowest fade curves.

4.Press<ENTER (TAPSYNC)> until the display shows the current scene or chase to exit fade setting.

Auto mode sets the steps in chases to trigger automatically, based on the set speed and fade times.

To enable Auto mode, do the following:

1.Play back a chase.

2.Press <UP (AUTO)> until the display on the right shows AUTO.

Audio mode sets the steps in chases to respond to audio triggers, from either the internal microphone, or an external audio source through the Audio Line Input jack on the rear panel.

To enable Audio Triggering, follow the instructions below:

1.Play back a chase.

2.Press and hold <DOWN (MUSIC)> until the display on the right shows MUSIC.

3.Turn the AUDIO SENS knob up until the scenes or steps are triggered by sound as desired.

Blackout mode sets all DMX outputs to zero while active. There are two ways to activate or deactivate Blackout mode:

·Press <BLACKOUT> or

·Press and hold <BLACKOUT / FUNCTION> for three seconds.

Either method can deactivate Blackout, regardless of how it was activated.

While Blackout mode is active, the indicator LED next to <BLACKOUT> will light up.

The Tap Sync feature allows the user to set the auto and fade speeds with their foot. To activate Tap Sync:

1.Play back a chase in Auto mode.

2.Press and hold <MODE> for three seconds. The display on the right will show

TAPSY.

3.Release <MODE>.

4.Press <ENTER (TAPSYNC)> at the desired tempo. Do this several times to ensure the tempo is set. (The time between the first and second press is the speed, the time between the second and third press is the Fade)

To deactivate Tap Sync, press and hold <MODE>.

During playback, the Color knobs can take priority over the scene or chase playing back. To manually override a recorded program, do the following:

1.Play back a scene or chase in any mode.

2.Use buttons <1>–<6> to select the fixture(s) to be overridden.

3.Use the Color/Number knobs to alter the output of the selected fixture(s).

Once a Color knob has been moved, the knob will completely supersede the program for

the selected fixture(s). For example: If all fixtures are set to output blue for a scene, fixture 1 is selected, and the BLUE knob is turned all the way down, then fixture 1 will not output blue.

To turn off Manual Override, use buttons <1><6> to deselect any selected fixtures.
