Setting Up the iPlayer 3 in Configuration Mode
Configuration Mode is used for configuration and to display
information. Configuration Mode enables you to access
onboard menus for setup or to browse info screens. In
Configuration Mode, the iPlayer 3 controller does not need to
be connected to your computer. You enter Configuration Mode
from the iPlayer3 user interface; you cannot enter it from the
PC.
See Chapter 5: Configuration Mode on page 26 for details
about Configuration Mode.
To set up the iPlayer 3 in Configuration Mode:
1. Press the iPlayer 3 right arrow button. The LCD screen will
indicate
CONFIG MODE
and display the current menu or
submenu item.
2. Use the arrow buttons to navigate menus, change settings,
and save your changes.
3. At any point, you can press the iPlayer 3 button to cancel
the current operation and return to Run Mode.
Connecting an External Show Controller
The iPlayer 3 has two RS-232 serial ports that allow external
controllers to select and control light shows. The ports are
intended for use by Color Kinetics’ Controller Keypad, Color
Kinetics’ AuxBox (used to connect contact closure switch
inputs), and third-party devices such as architectural controllers.
See External Show Controller Configuration on page 40.
Connecting the Controller Keypad
The Controller Keypad is an optional iPlayer 3 accessory,
available from Color Kinetics. It is a wall-mounted keypad with
eight show buttons, dimmer controls, and a master OFF switch.
