3.3.  RANDOM mode. 

 

RANDOM mode allows for the completely independent work of SPL-3 controller without 

using any additional steering signals (DMX-512, analogue, buttons). The way of steering the 
LED diodes is decided by steering codes: 001 ... 500, 560 ... 569, 570 ... 579. These codes are 
describe in 2.4 point. 
 

In  SPL-3  controller  there  are  defined  5  color  pallets.  Every  pallet  contains  10  different 

colours:  black  (LED  diodes  extinguish),  red,  orange,  yellow,  green,  light  blue,  blue,  violet, 
pink,  white.  Accurate  hues  of  this  colors  depends  on  the  types  of  diodes  and  LED  tapes. 
Additionally  the  hues  of  the  colors  can  be  changes  by  using  WHITE  BALANCE  which  is 
available in all modes of work. 
Every  from  5  pallets  in  SPL-3  controller  has  the  same  colors,  by  there  are  arranged  in 
different sequences – see table 3.

 – specifies the initial number of

The third digit code from the above range 

00

0

 ... 

49

9

 – specifies the number of final color, 

the color in which the controller has completed the LED lights up. 
After reaching the final color of the driver goes back to the original color and the whole cycle 
repeats itself. Colors outside the selected range will never light up. 

Final color number may be smaller than the initial color number, which will light up the 

color of the selected range in reverse order. 
 

Colors of a selected palette and a selected range of lights are one after the other at a rate of 

change defined codes 561 ... 569. 
For code 561 color changes occur approximately every 40 seconds (slowest changing colors). 
For code 569 color changes occur several times per second, giving the effect of flashing LEDs 
(the fastest color change). 
Additionally, code 560 to control the speed of color changes using analog 0-10V input given 
to IN A the driver SPL-3. 
Codes 560… 569 are described more in the instructions point.2.4.
