General IndicationsRead the instructions in this manual carefully, as they give important indications regarding safety dur-

ing the unit’s installation, use and maintenance.

Make certain to keep this manual with the unit for future consultation.

If the unit is sold to or used by another operator, make sure that the manual is always with the unit

to enable the new owner or user to read about its operation and relative instructions.

• Not for residential use.

• After having removed the packaging, check that the unit isn’t damaged in any way: if you have any

doubts, don’t use the unit and contact an authorized SGM service centre.

• Packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails, etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children,

as it could be dangerous.

• This unit must only be operated by adults. Don’t allow children to tamper or play with it.

• Any electrical work required for installing the unit must be carried out by qualified electricians or

other people with sufficient experience.

Avoid using the unit:

• in places subject to excessive damp (ideal conditions are between 35% and 80%)

• in places subject to vibration or the risk of bumps

• in places in which the temperature is above 45° or below 2°C

• Do not dismantle or modify the unit

• Make certain that no inflammable liquids, water, metal objects or other foreign bodies enter the unit.

• Should any liquid enter the unit, turn off the power supply immediately.

• Should there be any serious operating problem with the unit, switch it off and take it to the nearest

authorized SGM service centre for a check-up or contact the manufacturer directly.

• Never open the unit: there are no user-replaceable parts inside.

• Never try to repair the unit yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced people can cause further

damage or serious malfunction: contact the nearest authorized SGM service centre.

Always insist that any spares fitted are original.

Safeguard the environment: don’t throw batteries, accumulators or

packages into your trash can: return them to your retailer or take them to the nearest

special waste collection point.

1. Pilot 1600’s structure1.1 Main features

The Pilot 1600 is a controller for scanners or intelligent lighting fixtures which use a maximum of 20control channels and DMX 512 protocol.The unit’s main feature is its flexibility: data regarding the fixtures which it controls is in fact stored in abuilt-in library, to which new fixtures can be added up to a maximum of 64. For each of these, logicchannels different from the physical ones can be allocated, thus simplifying connection with the fix-tures controlled.Pilot 1600 controls 16 programs, each of which is made up of a maximum of 16 scenes and 16records made up of program sequences of up to a maximum of 100 steps (each step contains a pro-gram and Speed and Rate settings).Speed is the speed with which the scanners’ mirrors moves (Pan and Tilt), whereas Rate is the rate atwhich the unit passes from scene to scene in a program: both can be changed at any time while theprogram is running.It’s also possible to control some fixtures manually - even while a program is running - and add fix-tures to or remove them from the group under manual control.Pilot 1600 also allows operators to store programs in protected areas and to transfer stored data toother units.

1.2 Display and keyboardAll Pilot 1600 control parameters are shown on the alphanumerical display, which shows the following

message when the unit is switched on . Parameters which can be modified by the

operator can be changed using the cursor keys or the Data Entry slider.The various operating modes available are selected using the “Keyboard mode” keyboard.According to the operating mode, keys 1-16 are used to select the unit to control, the program orrecord to be run or the fixture to be controlled manually.

To facilitate the procedure of setting mirrors whenscanners are being used, during programming, theRATE slider operates as a controller of the mirror’smovement, which remains linked with the joystick.Joystick movement is automatically converted toparameters for Pan and Tilt control.

1.3 Pilot 1600 controls

All Pilot’s control functions are accessible via a tree structure shown in the diagram below.The cursor keys or the Data Entry are used to move, access to the various commands is given with the

key and the key is used to exit the command. When operators leave the command,

the Pilot displays the following message: . Press to confirm, or to return to the previous level without confirming any changes. When the Pilot 1600 is switched on,

the following message is displayed: . This message appears for 3 seconds, after

which the following is appears : now press any of the keys numbered from 1 to 16

2. Starting to use the Pilot 16002.1 Soft Patch

The Pilot 1600 is a universal controller, so for correct operation the first fundamental operation to becarried by the operator is to define what fixtures are connected to the Pilot.This is done using the Soft Patch function.

Access this function by pressing then on the EDIT keypad, and with the keyor the DATA ENTRY slider scroll the commands until the following appears on the display:

. Press for access to allocation. A LED will light up above the key, showing that you are working with fixture No.1.

Use the and keys in the top row or Data Entry to select the required fixture: e.g.

. The start address for this fixture must now be set. Press . The value on

the line of the start address changes to 001: . You can now key in another value(which must however correspond to that set on the fixture), or accept the value proposed (001, as this

is fixture No.1). Press to set the value chosen for this fixture.

When the key in the bottom row of the DATA SELECT group is pressed, the display indicates

the conversion of the start address to a dip-switch position: . This is extremely

useful when working with fixtures which use this system of setting. Use the arrow to return tonumerical mode.Pilot 1600 units are factory-programmed with the start addresses of the fixtures stored every 25.When a new unit is selected (e.g. No.2) and a fixture allocated (e.g. a Galileo IV), the start address ofthis second unit is calculated automatically. If fixture No.1 is a Galileo 1200 (six DMX channels), fixtureNo.2’s start address will be 7. Although this is correct, we suggest that start addresses should be setmanually 20/25 numbers apart, because if fixtures No. 1 and No.2 have to be inverted, the Galileo IV’s16 control channels would overlap with those of the Galileo 1200, making the latter uncontrollable andcompelling the operator to reset the Soft Patch of all the fixtures connected to the Pilot.A start address reset function has been added to further facilitate operators’ work. To enable it, accessSETUP mode (see chapter 7.10 - pag. 19 - Advanced Functions).

3. MANUAL operation

The Pilot 1600 can be operated manually in two ways: with single fixtures or groups of fixtures.Manual operation with one of more fixture can be carried out while records or programs are running.

When the Pilot is running a program or record, press to access manual mode. If no fixtures

have been set for manual control, the following message will flash on the display: and the LED indicating the program or record running during manual operation will remain lit, e.g.

confirm data storage, or key to abort modification procedure without carrying out any

changes. If you pressed the following will appear: showing that thestorage is being carried out.Supposing that you’ve enabled two Galileo I for manual control, when you access Manual mode, the

following appears: showing that the first of the fixtures stored is a Galileo I (nnnis the value of that function at that moment).

Using the cursor arrows it is possible to gain access to the fixture’s functions (the and

keys in the bottom row), select the fixtures enabled for manual operation (the and keys

in the top row) or gain access to the values of the function shown on the display (the and

keys or Data Entry).

To control all the fixtures enabled for manual control simultaneously, press the and

keys in the top row at the same time. The following will appear: .

To exit manual mode, press again.The group of fixtures under manual control can be reset at any time, as the manual section is run inde-pendently from the others.
