which causes 2 colors to be projected at the same time. This way, you can create duo-color figures and spot
effects, which can be a colorful addition to your lightshow and color scheme.
BLND:
Advanced Blackout Control – When not selected, the scanner will work in a normal operating mode.
When activated, the beam output will only be active when the mirror/gobos/colours are not moving or
changing.
Led:
The LED display will shut off automatically after a few seconds when this function is activated. When
pressing any button, the display will activate again. When deactivating the feature, the display will be lit
permanently.
DISP:
Display invert version – When using the fixture in a hanging setup, it is possible to flip the display, so
the characters will be shown upside down. This makes reading the several statuses much easier.
PAn/TILT:
These modes are used to invert the pan/tilt signal for the fixture. When using multiple fixtures in
your light show, this is an easy way to create wonderful synchronized mirrored movements. Especially in
master/slave mode this is a very easy way to create dynamic light shows.
TEST:
Self test mode, to control all segments and LEDs
TEMP:
Current fixture temperature (in Celsius)
Hour:
The fixture shows how much hours it has been active. This is very practical for rental companies which
need to perform service intervals on all fixtures after several hours of performing, to maintain optimal shape.
RsEt:
Reset function, which resets the fixture completely. This function is practical when you have a running
lighting setup and, for example, one of the mirrors was touched by somebody in the audience, causing
movements to lose their alignment.
The ALO 060 is equipped with several working modes, each with its own advantages. For simple events there
are stand-alone modes, for advanced situations there are options to create synchronized lightshows, or
controlled with a DMX-512 controller. A short description for each mode can be found below:
Auto:
Automatic lightshow with a pre-programmed internal show, on a pre-defined speed.
Sound:
Automatic lightshow with a pre-programmed internal show, on the beat of the music, thanks to an internal
microphone which senses the beat of the music and will change a step every time a beat is detected.
Slave:
In master/slave mode, it is possible to link several ALO 060 fixtures together, to create synchronized
lightshows in the Auto or Sound mode. The first fixture in the chain needs to be set in the Auto or Music
mode. All the next fixtures need to be set to Slave and will mimic the behavior of the first fixture. The
master/slave function requires XLR – XLR cables (not included).
DMX:
The ALO 060 can be connected to a DMX-controller with standard XLR – XLR cable. While doing so, a DMX-
terminator must be connected to the last fixture, at the end of the DMX-chain. This prevents reflections in the
DMX-signal, which could cause flickering and unwanted behavior from your intelligent fixtures.
A DMX terminator is a XLR connector with a resistor of 120 Ohm, placed between pin 2 and 3 as a bridge.
The ALO 060 can be controlled by DMX with the following channel setups:
