EDI wall station

[Dillweed]

Hello people! I am a 10th grade sophomore and we have a main wall mounted EDI station back stage and to second station in the dimmer room then two on off switches in the auditorium next to the entrances I will try to get some pictures latter and post them. What I'm trying to figure out is what the model is and if there's a manual for it to be reprogrammed, the lighting presets don't make sense and would like for them too also wondering if there's a way for the on off switched to turn on the house light and the stage work lights?

Have you checked out the wall panel manuals here:

Yes it's not listed there I'll get some pics in a hour or two we have a football game today

Is it a panel that has about 10 faders and a master fader on it? This is known as a stage backup panel. If this is the one you have it is programmed on the front of the dimmer rack itself though the analog matrix on the control unit towards the bottom.

I think I'm not sure but I'll check

Only 6 faders

From what I can see you need a special handheld programmer to change the configurations. Not sure where you can even find one, maybe someone here has one or can point you in a better direction.

Ok thank you

That's a common form of preset station. You can record levels of the sliders to buttons for fast and easy lighting. You might have some set for rehearsal, concert, meeting, cleanup, movie or whatever happens that doesn't require a light board operator.

The floppy disk will allow for reprogramming. I can't ID the exact product from the pics, but they did several of that type. Chances are good that no programming is needed, you just need to know how use the station. I suggest contacting http://ediserviceandrepair.info/ If he can't tell you, nobody can.

That is the EDI mark 10 dimmer rack. The manual is in the post from JohnD. The remote is for a hand held remote. The dmx is... dmx input. I believe you can plug an Omega console in and select a menu to program it. It's been a long time since I've been in there. You may be able to set the look you want with your current board, hold the learn button and push A (or B or whichever). The floppy disk is to save the program or load one in.

RickR posted the guys who will know.

So you can plug the board in and hold the A B or C for example and set the light on on the board? Did I understand that correctly ?

And so I'm assuming that's why there's a mini council in the dimmer rack room?

I am pretty shure that works. Using a stage panel on the mark 7 I can set a look with the console live then hold a record button on stage pannels to capture the look.

Send pictures.

for most most wall panels/architectural control systems you should be able to set levels on the stage from the lighting console, hit the learn button, preset button and learn button or whatever and it should store the DMX channel levels from the board!
