Colour calibration mode
(menu tab "Personality")
The function switches on/off an internal control of colours. For a standard operation of the fixture the option
should be switched on. Option off has to be set during colour calibration of the fixture (in this mode some
functions e.g. Tungsten effect, Virtual colour wheel are disabled).
Colour mixing system
(menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")
This item allows selection between RGB and CMY mode. In both 3-colour controlling modes (Mode 1,Mode 2)
all internal 5 colours are always utilized where possible.
Dimmer curve
(menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")
The fixture allows you to select a linear dimmer curve or a square law curve.
Tungsten effect simulation
(menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")
The function simulates behaviour of a halogen lamp during dimming at calibrated white colours 2700K - 4200K.
You can select from various lamp wattage simulation: 750W, 1000W, 1200W, 2000W, 2500W.
If the function Chromatic white is on, the Tungsten effect will influence also mixed colours.
Saving user colours
(DMX channel "Colour functions")
To save user colours:
1.Set the function White Point to off (Channel Colour Mix Control, range 70-79 DMX).
1.Mix desired colour on colour channels.
2.Stay in desired position of user colours (216-235 DMX) on the Virtual colour wheel for 1 sec.
3.Leave the range of user colours (216-235 DMX) on the Virtual colour wheel.
4. Repeat steps 2-4 for next user colour.
5.To permanently save user colours, stay for 3 sec. at DMX range of 110-114 on the channel Colour functions.
After that the colour system will be reset (this action can last about 2 minutes). Previous user colours will be
overwritten.
Chromatic white
(menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")
If the function is on, the CTC channel influences calibrated white colours and mixed colours (also colours on
Virtual colour wheel).
If the function is off, the CTC channel influences calibrated whites only.
Light output stability
(menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")
If the function is on, the light output from the fixture is immediately reduced to a value corresponding to a thermal
drop of the light intensity from the LED engine (the thermal drop of light intensity - decreasing of the light intensity
on circa 90 % of starting level after first 5 minutes, then is the thermal drop of light intensity inconsiderable).
Output Uniformity
(menu tab "Personality", DMX channel "Colour functions")
If the function is on, the light intensity from the fixture is corrected in order to get approximately the same light
intensity as from another fixture which has also the function on. Light outputs from more fixtures will have
approximately the same light intensity. Thanks to the function, light outputs from more fixtures will have ap
-
proximately the same light intensity.
