Modes and DMX Channels
Operating modes are set by using the button pad to navigate to the Personality and Fixture Address Menus. The menu allows the user to adjust; Color Mode, Color
Temperature, Intensity (dimmer curve) and select Advanced Features such as power control. Remote power setting permits the user to control ECO and FULL power setting
via DMX.
NOTE: If the advanced feature power mode is set to REMOTE the first DMX channel on the instrument will be assigned to it and all the channels listed below will be shifted
up by one channel.
Color
Modes
RevEAL Profile Junior offers a calibrated color mode and the option to only use white (CCT). Use the up and down buttons to select “
Color
” then use the left and right buttons
to choose between no color and XY mode.
While RevEAL instruments contain 5 base colors of LEDs, they are controlled within calibrated color systems. This ensures that the TrueSource optical sensor is
actively monitoring and calibrates color.
Color Mode - CIE x,y
CIE x,y allows the user to select color from the CIE 1931 2° Observer color space.
To determine the DMX decimal values for a given coordinate, simply multiply the coordinate by 255. For example 3200K white light has an x value of 0.4254 and a y of
0.4044.
x value: 0.4254 x 255 = 108 (42%)
y value: 0.4044 x 255 = 103 (40%)
In 16 bit mode, the multiplier is 65535;
x value: 0.4254 x 65535 = 27878 (42%)
y value: 0.4044 x 65535 = 26502 (40%)
If the Color Temperature channel is enabled, the color temperature channel will “take over” color control from the color channels. Generating white light in the Kelvin value
specified by the Color Temperature channel.
