Introduction
Quick Start
Welcome to the Micro-Scope manual. Micro-Scope is a sophisticated DMX512 and
MIDI analyser, but is remarkably simple to operate.
Users who are familiar with either DMX512 or MIDI should find that a scan of the Control
Surface section is sufficient to get started.
Please remember to return your product registration card, so that we can keep you
informed of new developments.
Features
Micro-Scope provides the following features:
• Receives DMX512 & MIDI
• Display as barchart, decimal, percentage or hexadecimal
• Display update rate, channels received, Break and MaB time
• Display maximu, minimum and current value of a single channel
• Double and single ended cable test
• Generate DMX512 or re-transmit buffered DMX512 or MIDI
• Fifteen Preset memories with snapshot
• Auto-backup, transmits Preset if console fails.

The Control Surface
Over-View
Micro-Scope is operated by the six front panel buttons. The buttons function as follows:
MENU
The MENU key is used to select the operating mode of Micro-Scope.
Pressing MENU once will display the currently selected mode. The LEFT and
RIGHT cursor keys are then used to select a new operating mode.
The process is completed by pressing MENU a second time.
TOGGLE
When Micro-Scope is in DISPLAY RECEIVED DMX512, the TOGGLE key is
used to step through the different display formats
(bar graph, percent, decimal etc.).
In TRANSMIT mode, the TOGGLE key is used to invert the lever of the
selected channel.
LEFT RIGHT
When Micro-Scope is in DISPLAY RECEIVED DMX512, the LEFT and
RIGHT cursor keys are used to select a new base address.
In TRANSMIT DMX512 modes, the LEFT and RIGHT cursor keys are used to
select a new transmit channel.
If Micro-Scope is displaying the menu, the LEFT and RIGHT cursor keys are
used to select the next operating mode.
UP DOWN
The UP and DOWN cursor keys are used to increment or decrement the
level of the displayed data

Menus
Upon entering MENU mode, twelve different operating modes may be selected.
These are:
DISPLAY RECEIVED Displays the DMX512 signal from any
DMX 512 1 console, in any of the six available
formats
TRANSMIT Transmit DMX512. Only a single
RIG CHECK 2 channel on at a level. This is the basic
flash through righ mode.
TRANSMIT PRESET Transmit and edit one of 15 Presets.
NUMBER: 15 3 Each Preset allows all 512 channels at
individuel levels.
TRANSMIT DYNAMIC Transmit any range of channels at a
DMX512 4 level or continuously ramping.
SNAPSHOT DMX TO Copy received DMX to any of the 15
PRESET: 15 5 Presets. Used to create show backup
or record useful test patterns.
FILL PRESET Fill one of the 15 Presets with a
WITH PATTERN 6 symmetrical pattern of channel levels.
DOUBLE ENDED Fully test all three pins of DMX512 or
CABLE TEST 7 MIDI cables for shorts and open
circuits.
SINGLE ENDED Test the two signal pins of DMX512 or
CABLE TEST 8 MIDI cables for shorts, when only the
console cable end is available.
AUTOBACKUP IF Allows Micro-Scope to connect in-line
DMX FAILS 9 between desk and dimmers. Switches
to a selected Preset if the desk fails.
BUFFER DMX MIDI Switch between the DMX512 output of
ENABLED 10 Micro-Scope and a regenerated
version of the received signal.
SELECT DMX START Allows Micro-Scope to operate with
CODE: 000 11 non-standard start codes.
DISPLAY RECEIVED Display MIDI data characters in
MIDI 12 hexadecimal form.

Displaying Received DMX512
In DISPLAY RECEIVED DMX512 mode the following keys are active:
• LEFT Decrement the current DMX512 stars address
• RIGHT Increment the current DMX512 stars address
• TOGGLE Select the display format
Received DMX512 data is displayed in one of six formats. They are:
• Bar Graph
• Decimal
• Percent
• Hex
• Max/Min
• Detail
Status
The first four display formats also include the following information:
1. DMX512 base address
2. Display mode
3. Data received indicator
4. Data error indicator
5. Loop-Through indicator
The diagram below shows Micro-Scope receiving DMX512 in bar graph mode.
1. DMX512 Base
2. Display Mode
3. Data Received
5. LoopThrough
4. Data Error
DMX Base Adresse
The DMX base address is in the range 1 to 512 and defines the first channel displayed.
This value is also used to set the TRIGGER OUTPUT.

Display Mode
This character shows the currently selected display mode:
Bar-graph mode displays twenty four channels as a bar-graph with a resolution
of 12,5%. Whilst the resolution of this mode is limited, it is often the most useful
when the DMX line is running show information. It is easy to pick out chases,
which in other display modes could be mistaken for flickering data.
DDecimal mode displays six channels as numbers in the range 0 to 255.
This mode shows the entire resolution of each channel. It is most useful when
dealing with moving lights and colour changers.
%Percent mode displays six channels as numbers in the range 0 to 100.
This mode provides the most familiar numbering system.
$Hexadecimal mode displays six channels as numbers in the range 00 to FF.
This mode is most useful when working with DMX devices such as relay boxes
and smoke machines, which use bit control. See Appendix for conversion tables.
Data Received Indicator
This character cell displays a tilde to show that data is being received.
The data is not necessarily valid DMX512.
Data Error Indicator
This character cell is clear when good data is being received. If an error occurs, one of
the following is displayed:
HDMX512 is being received with a non matching Header or stars code.
FData is being received with Framing errors. This can be caused by noise pick-up
and also occurs when the phase pins of the connector are reversed.
OData is being received with Overrun errors. This can be caused by noise pick-up
and also occurs when a phase pin is disconnected.
TThe received data is outside the DMX512 Timing specification. This display
occurs when either the number of channels per frame exceeds 512, or the Break
time is less than 88uS, or the MaB time is less than 4uS.
Loop Through Indicator
This character cell displays 'L' when Micro-Scope's output is providing a
clean and buffered version of the incoming DMX512. When the character cell is clear,
Micro-Scope's DMX512 generator is connected to the output.
