Setting a white balance

Note: White balance is only possible on Dyna Drum SO color models.

White balance is useful when your Dyna Drum SO installation will be required to regularly 
present particular shades of white using the R, G, B emitters, (plus the white emitters, if 
necessary). Using the white balance feature you can ‘bias’ particular colors so that when the 
R, G and B channels are all brought up, your pre-programmed bias will achieve, for example, 
a balanced warm white derived from a significant red output, with a moderate green 
output, while the blue is scaled back significantly.
White balance works with control from either the external DMX input or when running solo 
from the internal menu.
To achieve identical white balance across a collection of fixtures, you will need to program 
the same settings on each Dyna Drum SO unit.

To set a white balance

1  Enter the user menu (see page 9).
2  Select the 

bALA

 menu item. You now have access to the separate 

red

Gree

 and 

bLue

 

options, which are all set to 255 by default.  

3  Use the   and   buttons to choose a color and press 

ENTER

.

4  Use the   and   buttons to reduce the chosen color from 255 down to a minimum of 

125 to reduce the intensity of that color, and press 

ENTER

 to save.  

5  Repeat step 4 for each color that needs to be biased to achieve the required balance. 

To cancel a white balance 

1  Enter the user menu (see page 9).
2  Select the 

bALA

 menu item. In turn visit each color and ensure that they are all returned 

to 255.
