CONFIGURING THE RGB LED TUBE LIGHTS
The clock features a separate and dedicated setup menu for the
RGB LED lights, accessed from the ‘DST’ button. All settings are
stored to non-volatile memory, so your favourite colours will still be
there after even a long power off.
You can set fixed colours and intensities, or program an auto colour
cycling effect at your choice of speed.
