Low mode sets fans to constant low speed. This mode is optimized for minimum
noise. Light output intensity is smoothly reduced if it becomes necessary in order to
keep fixture temperature at optimum level.
If you want to avoid any automatic reductions in output intensity that may occur if
fixture temperature exceeds optimum level, we recommend that you that you use
low mode in combination with one of the Output limitation levels available via DMX
and in the fixture’s control panel to keep the fixture in output/temperature balance.
In all fan modes, if fixture temperature reaches an unsafe level, LEDs will be shut down
for a period until the fans have brought the temperature down to a safe level.
Fixture information
The Information menu in the control panel gives access to items of information from
the fixture’s sensors and memory. You can check temperature sensor readouts, see
total operating hours counters and power cycle count, and see DMX signal quality
data, for example.
Test pattern
If you need to check a fixture’s orientation, call up the test pattern on the Control /
Settings DMX channel or in the fixture’s control panel. If the fixture is oriented normally,
the test pattern will appear as shown below:

Custom settings and factory defaults
You can customize fixture settings (DMX mode, Fan mode, Pixel orientation, etc.) via
DMX or using the fixture’s control panel. Custom settings are stored after a power
off/on cycle and after a reset.
Two options are available in the fixture’s control panel for deleting multiple custom
settings and restoring defaults:
