Parameter Descriptions
In the following sections. parameters are listed alphabetically and their functions are described in
detail.
Note: All DMX values indicated in the detailed parameter descriptions are in
decimal units.
Color Correction Parameter
The Color Correction parameter adjusts the color temperature appearance of the LED output
from low at a DMX value of 1 to normal at a DMX value of 128. This parameter is part of each
protocol option. The default for Color Correction is Off when the DMX value = 0.
Color Mixing Parameters
The Red, Green, Blue and White parameter channels control the saturation (brightness level) of
each color for color mixing. Values for each color parameter range from Off when the
DMX value = 0 to fully On when the DMX value = 255.
In Standard and Reduced Protocol, four color channels mix color for all array LEDs. Zones protocol
assigns four color parameter channels for each zone. Mapping Protocol assigne four channels to
each LED in the array.
The Color Function parameter offers multiple options for controlling the LED color mixing and
output.
Note: The Color Function parameter is not included in the Mapping Protocol
options.
