Effect Adjustments
All controls for effect intensity, color, speed, and direction are accessible at the rear of the unit. The LED
intensity and effect motor speed controls are multi-turn potentiometers. Rotating the trimmer controls
clockwise increases the intensity or speed setting, and counterclockwise adjustment will decrease the setting.
The controls are very precise, and several turns may be required to produce a significant change. The
controls do not stop or tighten at the end of their adjustment range, but will continue to spin without causing
any additional change at minimum or maximum settings.
The controls for motor direction are small switches. In one position, the associated motor will rotate
clockwise at the preset speed, and counterclockwise in the other setting. The motor direction can be
reversed at any speed setting without damage.
All of these controls can be adjusted using a small slot-blade screwdriver without opening the unit case. Be
careful not to apply excessive force to any of the effect adjustment controls.
Changing Motor Speed
The two motor speed controls are used to adjust the rate of motion in the output pattern. The adjustment
ranges from slow enough to be barely perceptible, to very rapid and turbulent. For the most natural
appearance, both controls should be set from 5 to 7 turns from minimum. Higher or lower settings may be
used depending upon the display requirements. It is normal for the slight noise level from the effect motors
to increase at higher speed settings, but the motors will not be damaged by prolonged operation even at
maximum speed settings.
