ETC Installation Guide
ColorSource CYC v1.7/v3.1
Note:
Direct mode (
dir
) on the ColorSource CYC is not a
calibrated mode. As a result, you may see discrepancies in color
between fixtures. ETC recommends operating in one of the
calibrated modes, such as 5-channel mode or RGB mode.
(Calibrated modes make accommodations for the specific LEDs
in the array and produce output that is consistent with other
fixtures. Direct mode bypasses this calibration, and multiple
fixtures may produce slightly different outputs when controlled
as a group.)

*Use DMX values of 0 or 255 for no strobe. Use values of 1–254 to increase the strobe
rate from 1 per second up to 33 per second.
Data Loss Behavior
When DMX data is lost, the fixture does one of the following actions:
•
If you selected a preset or sequence, that preset or sequence
automatically plays.
•
If no preset or sequence is active in the background, the fixture
goes dark and the DMX start address flashes on the user interface.
Lock the User Interface
After you have set up the fixture, you can lock the user interface to
prevent additional changes.
1. Press and hold the Up button and Down button simultaneously for
3 seconds. The display will show
Loc
to indicate that the user
interface is locked.
2. To unlock the user interface, press and hold the Up button and
Down button simultaneously for 3 seconds.
