The LP608 Foot Controller is a very versatile lighting controller. It can be operated using your
foot or hand (as well as MIDI information). Being microprocessor controlled, the system is smart, it
acts upon commands that you input sequentially. This results in less setup time and fewer errors.
Its heavy-duty foot switches are rugged enough to guarantee many years of reliable operation.

The following step-by-step procedure can help get you start running your LP608/LP304/
LP302 Lighting System.
1. S
etuP
Connect the controller cable (standard XLR microphone cable) from the LP608 Foot Controller's
Control Signal Output to Lamps jack to the LP304 or LP302 Dimmer Bar. Use a single control-
ler cable, from each output, on the LP608 to a LP304 or LP302 Dimmer Bar. (Figure 1)

The LP608 Foot Controller can serve two types of users. A musician while performing, can use the
foot controller on the floor, operating the unit with his feet. A sound or lighting technician can use the
LP608 in touch-mode, placing the controller on a table and tapping the control switches with his hand.

aCtOry reSetS
Plug the LP304 or LP302 Dimmer Bar AC into a standard wall outlet. To reset the unit, use a
long narrow object (such as a screwdriver or ballpoint pen) and depress the switch labeled Push
In For Factory Presets. The switch is located on the rear of the controller.
Note: The LP608 Foot Controller can be reset to the Factory Presets with or without the control-
ler cables connected.

On the LP608 Foot Controller, the Scene  and Scene Mode lights should be illuminated.
By depressing the footswitch for the corresponding scene (1-6), different combinations of the
par lamps will illuminate.

Cene LaCkOut
Press the Scene Blackout footswitch on the LP608. Any lamps illuminated will turn off (blackout).
Pressing the Scene Blackout switch again will return the controller to the last scene. Pressing a
scene footswitch, other than the pre-blackout scene, will illuminate the lamps for the selected scene.

The Rate Select knobs adjusts the rate of how one scene changes to another. Turning the knob
clockwise speeds the rate (decreasing the time between scenes). Counter-clockwise rotation will
slow the rate and increase the time it takes to change scenes. The rate is adjustable from 0 to 10
seconds. The encoders are digital and rotate fully without need for a 'stop' detente.

hanGinG reSet
The intensity and combination of lamps that are on for each scene can be easily configured. Select
the scene that you wish to program using the "Scene Preset Select" push-switches. There are eight
Lamp Brightness adjustment knobs located directly above the Preset Select Switches. Rotate the
knobs corresponding to the lamp requiring adjustment. The Lamp Brightness knobs react in the
same manner as the Rate Select controls – clockwise for increasing brightness and counter-clock-
wise for decreasing the brightness.
8. S n S
tOrinG a ew Cene
Every time you adjust the lamp intensities of a scene it's automatically stored.
Internal Battery Backup
The CMOS memory of the LP608 is saved as you program the controller. Two AA sized batteries are
installed internally. To replace, remove the 12 screws on the bottom of the unit. Changing the batteries
every year is recommended.
Note: Adjustments made to a scene will automatically erase the previously stored setup for the scene.
There is no "enter" button – the system operates on a "what you see is what you get" basis.
