*Original ColorSource Spot jr fixture uses blue in channel 4; Deep Blue fixture uses indigo in

channel 4.

**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.

Play Presets and Sequences

The fixture has twelve factory-configured presets and five factory-configured
sequences. When you play a preset or sequence on a fixture, the same preset
number or sequence number plays on any connected fixtures that are not
receiving DMX. You can re-record presets and sequences through an RDM
device or manually on the fixture. See

Re-record Presets on the facing page

.

1.

Press the Mode button to activate the Presets/Sequences menu. The
last active preset or sequence plays automatically. (If DMX data is
present, the current preset or sequence plays in the background and
DMX data continues to take priority.)

2.

Press the Up button or Down button as needed to scroll through the
available presets and sequences.

3.

To stop the selected preset or sequence, press the Mode button a
second time. The display will revert to show the DMX start address.
