Installation

Disconnect (turn off) the power supply to the Strand DE90 dimmer rack(s).

WARNING! Verify all power is disconnected (turned off) before proceeding.

Removal of the Old Processor Module and Backplane

• Open the DE90 dimmer rack door, lift it off the hinges and carefully set it aside.

• Remove the inner metal panel. There are eight (8) #8-18 x 1/2" mounting screws (four (4) on each side) that need to be removed. Once the screws are removed, carefully pull the metal panel out and set it aside. Replacement mounting screws are provided to secure the panel

once the retrot is complete.

• If you are not familiar with the Strand DE90 dimmer rack processor electronics and wiring, it is

strongly advised that you take a few minutes to inspect the low voltage eld wiring connected

to analog inputs on top of the Processor Module (if applicable) and the connections on the

backplane. Some of this eld wiring may be reused to connect to the DE90-3000 retrot. Refer

to the Control Input/Output Connections (page 15) section of this manual for details.

• All of the internal OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) wiring must remain intact to complete

the retrot. Compare these connections to the ones on the DE90-3000 backplane. Do not disconnect any wiring until you are completely satised with how easy this is going to be.

NOTE: Never pull directly on the wires to remove connectors.

• Disconnect the JP2 connector labeled “TO LOCAL PANIC BRACKET” from the backplane. The entire panic bracket can now be removed. There are four (4) #10-32 mounting nuts securing the bracket in place that need to be removed using a 3/8" nut driver. Once the nuts are removed, the bracket can be pulled out and set aside.

• Disconnect all of the eld wiring connected to the top connectors on the backplane (JP1,

JP6, JP10 thru JP16 and JP18). These cables may be reused in some applications. Any unused cables should be coiled up and wire-tied. Carefully set them aside inside the rack and keep them isolated from any AC line voltage.

• Remove the Analog Input connectors (if applicable) from the top of the Processor Module. These cables may be reused in some applications. Any unused cables should be coiled up and wire-tied. Carefully set them aside inside the rack and keep them isolated from any AC line voltage.

• Remove the two (2) screws located on each end of the processor module.

• Slide the processor module partially out (approximately 3" (75mm)) until you have enough space to disconnect the control cables on the right-hand side (if applicable) and 3-Phase AC Power Cable on the left-hand side.

Some of the control cables may be reused in some applications. Any unused cables should

be coiled up and wire-tied. Carefully set them aside inside the rack and keep them isolated from any AC line voltage.

The 3-Phase AC Power Cable must be left intact and reconnected to the backplane on the

DE90-3000 retrot. Do not remove any of the wires from the connector.

• Slide the processor module out completely and set it aside.

• Disconnect the OEM fan power cables from JP5 connector located on the lower right-hand

side of the backplane. You will need a small at head screwdriver to loosen the connections

and pull the wires out. The OEM fan power cables will need to be reconnected to the

2-position breakaway connector on the backplane of the DE90-3000 retrot.

Inspect the fans and make sure they spin freely. Overheating of the dimmer modules is one

of the main causes of failure. Replacement fans are available from JSI upon request.

• Disconnect the OEM thermostat and power supplies cable from the JP8 connector. The wires and connector must be left intact and reconnected to the backplane on the DE90-3000

retrot. Do not remove any of the wires from the connector. There is an OEM thermostat

located at the top of the rack and is wired in via this cable and connector. The thermostat is a normally closed contact and opens at 185°F ±7°F (85°C ±4°C). The thermostat must

be left intact and operational for the DE90-3000 retrot to function properly. Replacement

thermostats are available from JSI upon request. There are two (2) OEM 12 Volt DC power supplies located on right-hand side of the dimmer rack. The power supplies are used to power the 24 Volt DC fans. The power supplies must be left intact and operational for the

DE90-3000 retrot to function properly. Replacement power supplies are available from JSI

upon request.

• Disconnect the two (2) OEM SSR control cables from the JP3 and JP4 connectors. Note that the small 36" DE90 dimmer racks may only contain one (1) OEM SSR control cable connected to JP3. Do not pull on the wire to disconnect. Carefully apply pressure to the

connector itself with either your ngers or preferably a small at head screwdriver. Do

not mix up the cable order or polarity. The wires and connector must be left intact and

reconnected to the backplane on the DE90-3000 retrot.

• The backplane should now be free and clear of any connections. Unscrew the ten (10) #6-32 x 1/4" mounting screws. Remove the backplane from the dimmer rack and set it aside.

• All of the electronics out of the dimmer rack present a great opportunity to do some preventative maintenance. The rack should be thoroughly cleaned, vacuumed and sprayed out using compressed air. All of the AC line and load connections should be inspected and tightened if necessary.

Installation of the new DE90-3000 Series Retroﬁt System

• Remove your new DE90-3000 Series retrot control system from the box.

• Install the new backplane and secure it in the rack using the eight (8) #6-32 x 1/4" mounting screws provided.

• Terminate and connect the OEM fan power cables to the 2-position breakaway JP5 connector provided located on the lower right-hand side of the backplane. Be sure that the red wires go to the V+ terminal and the black wires go to the V- terminal.

• Connect the OEM thermostat and power supplies cable to the 6-position JP8 connector located on the lower right-hand side of the backplane. A replacement connector has been provided in the event the OEM connector has been damaged. Ensure all wire terminations are tight.

• Connect the two (2) OEM SSR control cables to the 18-position JP3 and JP4 connectors located on the lower left-hand side of the backplane. If the dimmer rack only contains one (1) OEM SSR control cable, connect it to JP3. Be sure the cables are connected in the same order and polarity in which they were disconnected. Extra care should be taken not to bend or break any of the connector/header pins. Damage to these pins may require replacement of the entire DE90-3000 backplane and will not be considered warranty!

• Connect the OEM 3-Phase AC Power Cable to the JP7 connector located at the lower center of the backplane. Ensure all wire terminations are tight and the connector is fully seated with the correct polarity.

• Dress out, terminate and connect all other low voltage connections to the backplane using the breakaway connectors provided. Be sure to isolate and protect all shield wires. Refer to the Control Input/Output Connections (page 15) section of this manual for details.

• All of the OEM and eld wiring connections should now be complete.

• Ensure the provided 26-conductor ribbon cable is connected to the User Interface Board mounted on the DE90-3000 Front Panel (Faceplate).

• Ensure the provided 3-conductor cable is connected to the Front Panel DMX-B Input receptacle located on the right-hand side of the DE90-3000 Front Panel (Faceplate).

• Ensure the provided 2-conductor cable is connected to the Panic Switch located on the right-hand side of the DE90-3000 Front Panel (Faceplate).

• The DE90-3000 Front Panel (Faceplate) can now be installed in the dimmer rack. Place the two (2) mounting holes on the right-hand side

over the studs that used to secure the panic bracket and nger-tighten on

the two (2) #10-32 locking nuts provided. Finger-start the two (2) #6-32 x 3/8” mounting screws provided in the locations that used to secure the processor module. Once all the mounting hardware is in place they can be tightened down.

• Connect the 26-conductor ribbon cable to the backplane J12 (26CONDUCTOR RIBBON CABLE TO USER INTERFACE BOARD) connector.

• Connect the 3-conductor cable to the backplane JP1 (FRONT PANEL DMX-B INPUT) connector.

• The inner metal panel can now be carefully set into place and secured using the eight (8) #8-18 x 1/2" mounting screws provided. Two (2) #8 speed clips are provided to replace any missing or damaged.

WARNING! Never connect (turn on) power with inner metal panel removed.

• Connect (turn on) the power supply to the Strand DE90 dimmer rack.

• Verify the operation of the system status LED indicators, LCD display and programming switches. Refer to page 18 to 20 for details.

• Refer to the programming section of this manual for system

conguration. Refer to page 22 to 37 for details.

• Test the system thoroughly to ensure all wiring terminations are functioning.

• Verify all of the dimmer control outputs have the correct phase referencing. If a dimmer control output is patched to the incorrect phase reference, the dimmer will not dim correctly and will go to full output

at around 1% DMX input. The factory conguration for DE90-3000 Series retrot systems is for three-phase applications. The defaults (DEFAULTS) menu is used to recongure the phase patch for standard

single-phase applications and the phase patch (Ø-PATCH) menu is

used to congure non-standard applications. Refer to page 31 and 36

for programming details. Refer to the charts on page 8 for the standard

dimmer to phase patch conguration for DE90 dimmer racks.

• Verify all dimmers are controlled sequentially. The Dimmer to Channel

Patch (DC-PATCH) will need to be modied (programmed) to

compensate for a mixture of single, dual and quad dimmer modules. Refer to page 27 for programming details. Examples of DC-PATCH

congurations can be found on page 9 and 10. Charts used to

determine the DC-PATCH can be found on page 11 and 12.

• Verify fan operation. The fans are triggered on at 6% DMX input control, and stay on as long as the DMX is at 6% or greater. When the DMX input is brought down below 6%, there is a 5 minute timeout for the fans

to turn off. When the Panic Switch is turned on the fans turn on; when the Panic Switch is turned off the fans turn off.

• Verify Front Panel (Faceplate) Panic Switch operation. When the Panic Switch is turned on, all of the dimmer outputs are full-on.

• Verify Front Panel (Faceplate) DMX-B Input operation. The DMX B LED will illuminate and the LCD will show the number of DMX channels received.

• Once the DE90-3000 retrot system has been thoroughly tested the

dimmer rack door can be carefully set back on the hinges and closed.

LCD Display

Infrared LED

System Status LED Indicators

Programming Switches

User Interface

All DE90-3000 Series retrot systems are equipped with a user

interface. The user interface provides access to all programming

and conguration settings. System status is easily visible on

the LCD display and LED indicators. An infrared LED allows for

printout of all system conguration settings when used with a

hand held infrared printer (Johnson System Inc., Part Number: JS-IP).

All of the programming is accomplished using four (4) switches.

Within a few minutes most users will nd the menu structure very intuitive and easy to navigate. All conguration settings are

automatically stored into EEPROM.

LCD Display

The LCD display is capable of displaying 2 lines of 8 Characters. A backlight automatically comes on when activity is sensed on the switches. The LCD contrast can be easily adjusted for optimum viewing. Refer to menu item “LCD VIEW” on page 37 for further details.

Programming Switches

The MENU UP/DOWN ( ) switches are used for navigating

through the various system conguration menu items. They also allow for programming of other specic parameters

within a selected menu. Pressing and holding either switch will speed up the scroll rate, which can be helpful to speed up the

conguration time.

The EXECUTE switch is normally used to select/enter a menu item, advance forward within a selected menu item, or toggle between parameters within a selected menu item.

The ESCAPE switch is normally used to back up within a selected menu item one step at a time or exit the menu completely.

NOTE: The programming switches can be locked out to

prevent inadvertent conguration changes. To toggle between

“LOCKED!!” and “UNLOCKED” press and hold down the EXECUTE and then ESCAPE switches at the same time for 4-5 seconds.

The RESET switch has two purposes. First, it allows for quick exit from a menu item after a programming change and automatically puts the system into normal run mode. Second, it provides a soft reboot for the systems microcontroller.

NOTE: A detailed procedure for programming all system

conguration menu items can be found on page 22 to 37.

www.johnsonsystems.com

Page 19

System Status - LED Indicators

RUN (Green)

Illuminates when the power is on and the microcontroller status is in normal run mode. The LED

ashes once every 2 seconds when the system is in STANDBY mode.

ØA, ØB and ØC (Green)

Illuminates when the line voltage power is within the acceptable range of 100-130 VAC for each

phase and the zero-cross reference circuitry is functioning properly. The LED will ash slowly (once per second) when an under-voltage state of less than 100 VAC is sensed and will ash

quickly (twice per second) when an over-voltage of greater than 130 VAC is sensed.

DMX A and DMX B (Yellow)

Illuminates when valid DMX is received on each of the inputs. Flashes when invalid DMX is received.

ALARM

Illuminates and ashes twice per second when either a re or security alarm is sensed on each of the inputs.

O/T

Illuminates and ashes twice per second whenever one of three over-temperature sensing inputs are triggered.

System Status - LCD Display

When DMX is being received, the top line of the LCD display shows the active DMX MODE (“PTY A”, “PTY B”, “MERGE”, “DMX A+B”, “2 ROOM” or “PATCH”). When DMX is not being received, the top line of the LCD display shows “MADD-24”, unless the system is in standby mode, then “STANDBY!” is displayed.

The bottom line of the LCD Display shows the current status of the system unless the system

conguration menu items are being accessed. Below are descriptions for each status indication.

NO RX!

Displayed when DMX is not being received on either input and the system is not in scene mode.

AXXXBXXX

Displayed when valid DMX is being received on one or both inputs and both inputs are not terminated. “A” and “B” represent the DMX A and DMX B inputs while “XXX” represents the number of channels being received in each packet of data. For example, if the system is receiving 512 channels on DMX B and DMX A is disconnected, the display will show “A000B512”.

XXX

Same as above except the “A” and “B” is replaced with “ ” to indicate if one or both of the DMX inputs are terminated. For example, if the system is receiving 48 channels on DMX A and 512 channels on DMX B, with only DMX A terminated, the display will show “

048B512”. Refer to

menu items “DMXA TRM” and “DMXB TRM” on page 24 and 25 for further details.

SH XX:YY

Displayed when DMX is disconnected and the systems predetermined DMX status hold (SH) time is counting down. “XX” represents minutes while “YY” represents seconds. Refer to menu item “SH TIME” on page 27 for further details.

www.johnsonsystems.com 19

Page 20

INF HOLD

Displayed when DMX is disconnected and the systems predetermined DMX status hold (SH) time

is set for innite (INF) hold. Refer to menu item “SH TIME” on page 27 for further details.

SCENE:XX

Displays the scene (1 to 24) that is currently activated. Refer to menu item “L-BUTTON” on page 30 for further details.

A-SCENE!

Displayed when the auxiliary input is triggered. Refer to menu item “AUX IN” on page 30 for further details.

FIRE!!!

Displayed when the re alarm input is triggered. Refer to menu item “F-ALARM”

on page 31 for further details.

SECURITY

Displayed when the security alarm input is triggered. Refer to menu item “S-ALARM” on page 31 for further details.

EXT-TEMP

Displayed when the over-temp input is triggered or when the OEM thermostat in the DE90 dimmer rack senses an over-temperature condition of 185°F ±7°F (85°C ±4°C). All dimmer outputs are disabled and the fans are turned on to full until the external devices temperature

drops to within specication.

REM-TEMP

Displayed when the systems remote temperature sensor measures an over-temperature condition of 185°F (85°C) or more. All dimmer outputs are disabled and the fans are turned on to full until the temperature cools down to 178°F (81°C) or less. The remote temperature sensor

is not used with DE90-3000 Series retrot control systems. Refer to menu item “REM TEMP” on

page 32 to view the current remote temperature.

CTL-TEMP

Displayed when the microcontroller senses an internal over-temperature condition of 185°F (85°C) or more. All dimmer outputs are disabled and the fans are turned on to full until the temperature cools down to 178°F (81°C) or less. Refer to menu item “CTL TEMP” on page 32 to view the current microcontroller temperature.

Ø ERROR!

Displayed when an error is sensed on any of the input power phases. A phase error can be caused from an under-voltage of less than 100VAC, an over-voltage of greater than 130VAC, or if a zero-cross phase reference is not detected.

RTC ERR!

Displayed when the system detects a runtime counter (RTC) error. This occurs when there is an invalid hard-key code and the runtime counter is greater than 2160 hours (90 days). Refer to menu item “HARD-KEY” on page 33 for further details.

LOCKED!!

Displayed when an attempt is made to access the system conguration menu items and the

programming switches are locked out. To toggle between “LOCKED!!” and “UNLOCKED” press and hold down the “EXECUTE” and then “ESCAPE” switches at the same time for 4-5 seconds. Also displayed when an attempt is made to access factory only setup menus.

7. DMX MODE Congure the mode of the on-board DMX protocol manager.

There are ve different mode settings for the DMX protocol manager.

Priority A (PTY A) and Priority B (PTY B) modes are intended for the implementation of a

backup DMX source. Priority A (PTY A) sets the DMX A input as the priority, and ignores the DMX B input when the DMX A input is active. Priority B (PTY B) sets the DMX B input as the priority, and ignores the DMX A input when the DMX B input is active.

Merge (MERGE) mode combines both DMX inputs with highest-takes-precedence (HTP)

operation. Merge mode allows for simultaneous DMX control of the dimmers from both inputs, and is the default for the system.

Dual Universe DMX (DMX A+B) mode provides a method to combine two universes

of DMX within one system. It permits two independent DMX sources to be active on the DMX inputs, with each having a separate DMX start address. The DMX inputs are merged and DMX-B is offset by the number of DMX-A channels programmed via the ADDRESS menu (see page 23 for further details). This feature is typically used when

system is at the end of one DMX universe (DMX-A) and the beginning of another (DMX-B)

Two Room (2 ROOM) mode enables the room (A or B) assignment for each of the

dimmer outputs via the 2 RM SET menu. PTY A Press EXECUTE to toggle into Priority A (PTY A) mode. PTY B Press EXECUTE to toggle into Priority B (PTY B) mode. MERGE Press EXECUTE to toggle into Merge (MERGE) mode. DMX A+B Press EXECUTE to toggle into Dual Universe DMX (DMX A+B) mode. 2 ROOM Press EXECUTE to toggle into Two Room (2 ROOM) mode. Press ESCAPE or RESET to exit the menu.

Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.

NOTE: DMX O/P must be set to OFFSET mode for this menu to function.

8. 2 RM SET Set the two room assignment for each of the dimmer outputs. This menu is used to assign each of the 24 dimmer outputs to room “A” or room “B”.

Dimmer outputs assigned to room “A” are controlled via the DMX-A input. Dimmer

outputs assigned to room “B” are controlled via the DMX-B input. This creates

separation within the dimmer rack and makes a single dimmer rack function as though it

is two independent dimmer racks. When used in conjunction with the DC PATCH menu,

the dimmer rack can be congured for sequential DMX control of two rooms, even if the

dimmer room assignments are not sequential. DMX MODE must be set for 2 ROOM operation for this menu to function. Press EXECUTE to enter the menu and activate 2 RM SET mode. DIM 01 A Displays the dimmer (DIM) output (01) and the room assignment (A). DIM 24 A Press MENU ( ) to select a different dimmer output from 01 to 24. DIM 24 B Press EXECUTE to toggle the room assignment from A to B. Press ESCAPE or RESET to exit the menu.

Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.

NOTE: Ensure only the last (end-of-line) DMX receiving device is terminated!

11. DMX O/P Congure the on-board DMX protocol manager for offset or patch mode..

OFFSET mode is typically used for the majority of systems, and is the factory default.

OFFSET mode refers to the DMX start address, with each of the 24 dimmer (PWM) outputs addressed sequentially from the DMX start address.

PATCH mode provides full exibility for addressing each of the 24 dimmer (PWM)

outputs. Each of the 24 dimmer (PWM) outputs can be patched to (controlled from) any DMX input channel from 001 to 512, from either or both of the DMX A and DMX B inputs simultaneously

With DMX patch mode activated, any conguration within the ADDRESS, DMX

MODE, 2 RM SET and DC PATCH menus is ignored, and the DMX patch congured

within the DMXA PAT and DMXB PAT menus takes precedence.

When using the system in DMX patch mode, it is strongly recommended to printout

the patch using a hand held infrared printer (Johnson System Inc., Part Number: JS-IP).

Press EXECUTE to enter the menu and congure the DMX mode.

DISABLED This menu is disabled to help prevent inadvertent changes. Proceed to enable. ENABLED Press and hold MENU ( ) and MENU ( ) at the same time for 4-5 seconds. OFFSET Press EXECUTE to toggle the DMX mode from OFFSET to PATCH. PATCH Press EXECUTE to toggle the DMX mode from PATCH to OFFSET. Press ESCAPE or RESET to exit the menu.

Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.

12. DMXA PAT Patch the 24 dimmer (PWM) outputs to any DMX A input channel.

There are two ways to congure the DMX patch. Each of the 24 dimmer (PWM)

outputs can be manually (MANUAL) patched to a DMX input channel, or patched in blocks (BLOCK) of sequential dimmers and DMX channels.

For MANUAL patching, each of the dimmers are patched individually. First, the

dimmer (DIM) output is selected, and then any DMX input channel from 001 to 512 is patched to the selected dimmer.

For BLOCK patching, a sequential range of dimmers are patched to a sequential

range of DMX channels. First, the rst dimmer number (DIM#) in the block is selected, then the DMX A start address (DMXA) for the block is selected, and then nally the

number of dimmers (#DIM) in the block is selected. For example, if DIM# is 001, DMX is 001, and #DIM is 024, then all of the dimmer outputs, 001 thru 024 are addressed sequentially to DMX channels 001 thru 024.

For a more complex example, if DIM# is 007, DMX is 321, and #DIM is 012, then dimmer outputs 007 thru 018 are addressed sequentially to DMX channels 321 thru 344.

Using a combination of MANUAL and BLOCK patching methods can speed up

conguration. Typically, a BLOCK of dimmers is rst patched and then edited using

the MANUAL patch.

The DMX patch should be cleared (CLEAR) before conguring the patch. Clearing

the patch ensures all previously congured patch data is cleared (erased).

When DMXA PAT is utilized in conjunction with DMXB PAT, each of the 24 dimmer

(PWM) outputs can be patched to (controlled from) any DMX input channel from 001 to 512, from either or both of the DMX A and DMX B inputs simultaneously.

15. DC PATCH Congure the dimmer to channel patch for the dimmer rack. Each of the 24 dimmer control outputs may be assigned and patched to any of the

24 DMX control channel inputs. Multiple dimmer control outputs may be patched to a single DMX control channel input. The Dimmer to Channel Patch (DC-PATCH) is used by other menu features to provide transparent control of the dimmer output circuits.

The default DC-PATCH for DE90-3000 Series retrot control systems is 1 to 1,

meaning dimmer control output 1 is controlled by DMX control channel 1, dimmer control output 2 is controlled by DMX control channel 2, and so on thru 24. The default patch is for normal operation of a full 72" DE90 dimmer rack consisting of 12 x dual dimmer modules with a total of 24 dimmers or a small 36" DE90 dimmer rack consisting of 6 x dual dimmer modules with a total of 12 dimmers.

The DC-PATCH will need to be modied (programmed) to compensate for a mixture

of single, dual or quad dimmer modules. Once the DC-PATCH has been modied the

dimmers should have sequential DMX control in most applications.

In a full 72" DE90 dimmer rack there are 12 locations for dimmer modules. Each

dimmer module can contain a single dimmer circuit or dual dimmer circuit. The rst

dimmer module location at the top of the rack is hard wired to dimmer control outputs 1 and 2... the last dimmer module location at the bottom of the rack is hard wired to dimmer control outputs 23 and 24.

In a small 36" DE90 dimmer rack there are 6 locations for dimmer modules. Each

dimmer module can contain a single dimmer circuit, a dual dimmer circuit, or a quad

dimmer circuit. The rst dimmer module location at the top of the rack is hard wired

to dimmer control outputs 1, 2, 13 and 14... the last dimmer module location at the bottom of the rack is hard wired to dimmer control outputs 11, 12, 23 and 24.

Examples of DC-PATCH congurations can be found on page 9 and 10.

Charts used to determine the DC-PATCH can be found on page 11 and 12. Press EXECUTE to enter the menu. D01<C01 Displays the dimmer (D) output (01) and its current control channel (C) patch (01).

16. DIM CURV Congure the dimmer curve for each output.

There are four different dimmer curve proles that can be assigned to each individual

dimmer output circuit. Square Law (SQ) curve is the industry standard and the default

for all dimmers. Linear (LN) curve modies the dimmer output for a linear relationship

to the control input level. Direct Drive (DD) curve is not modied - meaning the control

input level is directly proportional to the control output level. Non-Dim (ND) curve

assigns the dimmer circuit to operate in a full-on or off state only, with no dimming.

Dimmers set for non-dim will be triggered full-on at 55% control input and will be

triggered off again at 45% control input.

Press EXECUTE to enter the menu. DIM01 SQ Displays the dimmer (DIM) output (01) and its current dimmer curve.

Any change in the conguration is automatically saved.

19. ANA MODE Congure the analog inputs for normal or load shed mode.

Each of the four (4) analog inputs can be independently congured for normal

(NORM) or load shed (SHED) mode of operation. Normal (NORM) mode sets the analog input for 0-10VDC operation. The analog

voltage level sensed sets the level for the selected dimmer outputs. Load shed (SHED) mode is used as a power management interface to building

management systems (BMS). Contact closure devices such as a photocell or

maintained switch contact may be used to trigger the analog input. When a voltage

of 5.5VDC to 12VDC is sensed on the analog input the selected dimmer outputs are

disabled (set to zero output level). The selected dimmer outputs are enabled when

the voltage sensed on the analog input drops to below 4.5VDC. Press EXECUTE to enter the menu and set the mode for each analog input.
