Audio activation

 

Audio activation is 
toggled on and off with 
each alternate press of 
the loudspeaker button. 

 
The small dot on the remote 
display lights brightly when audio 
activation is enabled and blinks in 
time with the internal beat 
detector. 
 

Adjusting the audio effect 

If zones are free to respond to 
sound then the way they do so is 
determined by the setting of the 
Audio effect range. 

 
In the top 50% of the range each audio beat reduces the 

saturation of the 

colour towards white. The saturation effect becomes more pronounced the 
further towards the maximum limit the setting is taken. At 100% each beat 
completely de-saturates the colour forcing it to white before settling back 
to the amount of saturation defined by the 

home colour after the beat. 

While in this upper control region the remote display shows:  
 
In addition to the saturation effect, around the centre of the range, every 
beat also steps the 

Hue of each zone by a variable amount. The size of this 

step varies symmetrically either side of the centre of the range with the 
50% position providing the biggest step. This position also coincides with 
zero change in both 

Level and Saturation and is identified with – on the 

remote display. The step in 

Hue falls off to zero below the 25% and above 

the 75% points leaving only 

Level or Saturation affected by the audio beat. 

 
In the lower 50% of the range the audio beat increases the 

Level of each 

zone pulsing it to the 

home colour setting before fading back into darkness 

until the next beat arrives. Increasing the setting gradually raises the 
minimum 

Level up to a point halfway through the control range at which 

point no dimming will occur at all. While in this lower control region the 
remote display shows:

 

 

 
The audio effect can be disabled for individual 
Zones in 

Program Edit

 mode. This might be 

useful for setting up programs having particular 
zones that are less distracting than others. 
Disabled zones may still respond to colour 
sweeping if desired using the options described 
on page 9.

Note

 – for a given program, the 

chosen Audio effect applies 
globally to all zones opting-in for 
sound activation. Other 
programs may be configured 
with different effects to create a 
variety of lighting schemes each 
with their own distinct 
appearance.
