SHAPESHIFTER User Manual
Color Parameters
Each Module of a SHAPSHIFTER fixture is composed
of three groups of LEDs. In SHAPESHIFTER C1
fixtures, these are colored LEDs. When they are all
set at the same intensity level, they project as white.
In SHAPESHIFTER W1 fixtures, the LEDs are still
grouped but are all white.
The
LED Red
,
LED Green
, and
LED Blue
parameters control the saturation (brightness level)
of each group of LEDs on a Module. Values for each
color parameter range from
Off
when the DMX value
= 0 to fully
On
when the DMX value = 255.
Reduced Protocol controls all the modules as a unit. For example, intensity set for one LED group
will affect that group on each module.
Enhanced Protocol gives you control of each group of LEDs on a module independant of other
modules.
The
Mix
Color Function
parameter offers multiple options for controlling the LED color mixing
and output. In Enhanced protocol mode, there is a
Mix Color Function
for each module.
