1. Device Overview
Light-drive
Light-drive is a new e:cue product category of devices that combine a standalone DMX controller and a user interface in a single unit. Designed to allow end-users
to setup custom light scenes and color-changing eects directly on the device,
light-drives are easy to use and require no software to setup light scenes. By
outpuing directly DMX512 protocol, light-drives can control LED xtures through a single RJ-45 connection for power and data.
Dear valued customer,
Thank you very much for purchasing light-drive elite.
light-drive elite is a wall-mounted standalone DMX controller and interactive user interface for dynamic
lighting. End-users can easily setup color changing eects and control
lighting directly using the device.
The user interface features touch­sensitive keys and wheel with color
LEDs for intuitive selection of colors
and adjustment of intensity and speed.
Memory function allows end-users to
dene four colors for color-changing eects. It can be easily connected to LED RGB xtures through an RJ-45
connection for power and data.
The interface glassy nish is designed
for an elegant appearance as well as easy maintenance.

On/O Key
The on/o key turns the unit on or o. Fixtures will fade out when the device is turned o. When the device is turned on, it will start in the last used mode.
Touch Wheel
The touch wheel is backlit with 12 RGB LEDs and it is used to select and adjust intensity, colors, white color temperature, speed, spread and memory function.

Intensity Mode
Touching the intensity key activates intensity mode.
For a quick change of the intensity simply touch the wheel at the desired intensity displayed on the
LED ring.
Color Mode
Touching the color key activates color mode.
For a quick change of the color simply touch the wheel at the desired color
displayed on the LED ring.

For ne adjustment, scroll the wheel clockwise to increase the intensity, or counterclockwise to
decrease the intensity.
For ne adjustment, scroll the touch wheel
slowly clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the color.

White Mode
Touching the white key activates white mode.
For a quick change of the intensity simply touch the wheel at the desired color temperature displayed on
the LED ring.
Memory Mode
Touching the memory key activates memory mode.
Selecting saved colors
Four saved colors are displayed on four separate
areas of the LED ring. Touch the wheel next to two color LEDs to select the displayed
color.
For ne adjustment, slide the wheel clockwise to for a colder white, and counterclockwise for a
warmer white.
Saving colors with the memory function
After selecting a color in any other mode, touch
and hold memory key for more than 3 seconds.
LED ring will blink to signal that you can now
save the current color in one memory slot. Touch
the wheel at one of the memory slots, displayed by LED ring (see the encircled areas below).

Replay Mode
Touching the play/pause key starts or stops the replay mode. In replay mode, user-dened colors change gracefully from one color to the next using a congured spread. See Conguring the Spread
for details.
The LED ring will display a rotating color-chase according to the previously congured speed. Scroll the
wheel clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease the speed.
If you choose four colors for the user memories, that are close to each other on the color circle (e.g. orange, red, blue, green) the sequence looks much beer as
the path from one color to another does not need to go through whole color circle.
Conguring the Spread
The spread conguration allows the user to apply a color chase eect spread over up to 12 RGB xtures (i.e. light-points) at a time. If the spread is set to one, then colors will fade from one color to another, saved in memory mode, on all RGB xtures at the same time.
If the spread is set to greater than one, then fading between colors is distributed over the number of chosen xtures. As a result, all xtures will have dierent

e.g. three xtures activated

colors equal to the number of chosen xtures. Press and hold the play/pause key for 5 seconds to cong­ure the spread. The LED-Ring shows the number of

dened RGB-xtures that are used to calculate the spread. Minimum number of xtures is 1 (all RGB-

xtures show the same color), maximum is 12 (color spread will be repeated after 13th xture).

Touch the wheel at the desired number of xtures. When nished, wait a few seconds and the unit will
go back to replay mode.

4.3 Cleaning mode
Touch and hold the on/o key for 5 seconds until the on/o LED is blinking, to
activate the cleaning mode.
In cleaning mode, touching the keys or the wheel will be ignored. This option is useful to clean the device without aecting the controls. When nished, wait a
few seconds and the unit will automatically come back in the last used mode.
4.4 Reset
Touch and hold the memory key for more than 10 seconds until you hear a beep to reset the device to its default values. This includes memory color, speed,
intensity and the spreading.
4.4 Idle / Stand by
If the keys or wheel are not touched for a few seconds, the unit will go into idle mode, which means that the LED ring and the LEDs will be dimmed.
If the keys or wheel are not touched for one minute, then the unit will go into standby mode, which means that the LED ring on the device will be turned o.

4.5 Remote Control
All previously described features are
also accessible via remote control, except “conguration of spread”, “cleaning mode” and “reset”.
The unit´s on/o LED will blink when it is receiving IR-remote control
signals.
In addition to the four user-dened colors, you can recall four xed colors (red, green, blue, white) via the buons “5” to “8” on the remote
control.
