How to Set Local Levels on a Sensor CEM3

Issue 

If your control source fails, or you need to test a circuit, you may need to turn dimmers on from the local control of your rack, or as we call it, set levels.  From the Test menu you can both set a local level, and clear (release) it.

Solution 

  1. Navigate to [Test]>Set Local Levels and press [Enter].
  2. Select a dimmer by entering the number or scrolling to it with the jog wheel
    • To select a range of dimmers, use the [thru] and [and] buttons
  3. Press [at] or [Enter]
  4. Set a level by entering the number or scrolling with the scroll wheel. 0–100 is the valid range. 100 will display as “FL”.  Scrolling to "--" will release the level
  5. Press [Enter]

To release levels back to their normal control method when you're done:

  1. Press [<]
  2. When asked if you want to release levels, select "yes" 
  3. Press [Enter]
