movement pattern is running, the manual adjust-
ment will apply starting at the moment it is made. To
return the control for all channels to the running
program or movement pattern, press the button
RELEASE / CLEAR.

5.1.1 Copying adjustments

Adjustments made for a light effect unit can be
adopted by other units (with the same channel
functions).
1) The LED above the button SCENE / FIXTURE
(5) must light up. If it does not light up or if it
flashes, press the button.
2) While keeping the button MODE (20) pressed:
first press the number button (17) of the unit to
be copied (the LED above the unit will start to
flash), then press the buttons one after the other
for the units that are to adopt the adjustments.
Each copy process will be confirmed by a brief
flash of all LEDs.
The LEDs of the units that have adopted the
adjustments will light up.
3) As long as the LED for a unit keeps flashing, the
adjustments of the unit can be copied to other
units. To exit the copy function, press one of the
number buttons.

5.2 Scenes

The adjustments of any light effect unit can be
saved in a scene. Up to 32 scenes may be saved
in the DMX-3216 that can then be called up by just
pressing a button. It is possible to combine multiple
scenes and, using the controls, even to mix them.

5.2.1 Programming scenes

1) Keep the button PROGRAM / REC (10) pressed
for 3 s. The LED next to the button will start to
flash to indicate that the programming mode has
been activated.
2) The LED above the button SCENE / FIXTURE
(5) must light up. If it does not light up or if it
flashes, press the button.
3) Use the number button (17) to select the number
of the unit that is to be controlled in the scene.
Multiple units may be selected at the same time
if they have the same channel functions and if
they are to be controlled in the same way. When
a unit has been selected, the LED above the
appropriate number button will light up. To de -
select a unit, press its number button again.
4) Use the sliders (4) and, if applicable, the jog
wheels PAN (19) and TILT (22) to make the
adjustments for the appropriate channels as
described in chapter 5.1 for direct control.
To set all channels of all units to the value
zero at the same time, use the button RELEASE/
CLEAR (23).
If required, repeat steps 3 and 4 until all light effect
units intended for the scene have been adjusted.
5) Press the button SCENE / FIXTURE. The LED
above the button will start to flash.
6) Select one of the four levels to which the scene
is to be saved. The LEDs A – D (2) indicate the
current level. Use the button PAGE (3) to switch
to another level.
7) Press the button PROGRAM / REC briefly and
then press one of the eight buttons (1) to which
the scene is to be saved.
LEDs light up above the buttons to which a
scene has already been saved. When one of
these buttons is pressed, the previously saved
scene will be overwritten.
All LEDs will flash briefly to confirm that the
scene has been saved.
Repeat steps 2 to 7 until all scenes desired have
been saved.
8) To exit the programming mode, keep the button
PROGRAM / REC (10) pressed for 3 s. The LED
next to the button will extinguish.

5.2.2 Calling up scenes

1) Press the button SCENE / FIXTURE (5) so that
the LED above the button starts to flash.
2) Select the level to which the scene desired has
been saved. The LEDs A – D (2) indicate the cur-
rent level. Use the button PAGE (3) to switch to
another level.
LEDs light up above the buttons to which a
scene has been saved.
3) To call up the scene desired, press the appropri-
ate button. The LED above the buttons will keep
on flashing as long as the scene is active.
To deactivate the scene, press the button
again; the LED will light up permanently again.
4) To fade in a scene, slowly move the slider
beneath the control to its top position. All the val-
ues of the DMX channels saved in the scene will
be increased in proportion to the position of the
slider until they reach the saved value at the top
position of the slider.
To fade out the scene, slowly move the slider
downwards. When the slider has reached its
lowest position, the LED will stop flashing.
Note: Crossfading is only recommended for scenes
that only control dimmer functions; the interim values
generated during crossfading are usually not desired in
channels for movement control or other functions (e. g.
colour change, stroboscope).
