Channel 1
controls lamp on, lamp off, the dimmer and the strobe rate. It
also allows you to execute a random “stand-alone” program using
automatic or music trigger, and to reset all effects to their home positions.
Channel 2
controls the rotation of the parabolic reflector. This channel
has no effect if the stand-alone program is selected on channel 1.
Channel 3
controls the color wheel and is used to select colors, split
colors, the twinkle effect and color rotation. When the stand-alone
program is running, this channel still has active control of the color wheel
unless the DMX value is set to greater than 250 (>98%).
