REMOTE RANGE WALK TEST
Once the Light Source is fully installed carry out a complete range walk test and record the range in the
table below. This information is essential for maintenance purposes to determine if the
range/sensitivity is reducing and also to record dead areas within the Remote Controller’s range due to
RF obstructions and/or RF interference.
NOTE 2: Where a Light Source has more than one Remote Control, reduction in operating range may be
experienced when both (or multiple) Remote Controls are used simultaneously.

At any time the cycle can be stopped on a colour and started again using the Lower push
button
To disable manual operation and revert to remote controller operation, recycle the power to
the Light Source. The Remote Controller may need to be matched to the Light Source as
detailed on page 5.
DMX OPERATION
The MicroLED4000M is programmed as a Master unit (See Mode designation label on rear of
unit) and is capable of interlinking to a MicroLED Slave Light Source using a RJ45 cable. In
this Master /Slave configuration the Slave Light Source will follow the Master Light Source,
but no control from a remote DMX controller is possible. Remote DMX control can only be
achieved using MicroLEDSLAVE Light Sources. See MicroLEDSLAVE User Guide for DMX wiring
connections
Cycle SPEED A - Fastest SPEED B - Slower SPEED C - Slowest
1 (White Start) Push Once Push Once Push Once
2 (Red Start) Push Once Push Once Push Once
The Light Source is controlled using the 2 push buttons on the rear of the unit.
