CHoICe of foUR DIMMInG CURVes
•
linear
(lin)
In Linear mode an address of 127 = 50% Dim. Because single channel DMX is only 8 bit (0-255),
the lower end of the Dim curve has the same increment as the higher end.
•
square law (squ)
A square law curve applies a multiple derived from the square root of the control level (with
full output equal to 1.00) to increase voltage response at low control levels to compensate for the infrared
loss in a tungsten fixture.
•
s curve
Greater resolution at low end and high end, compressed in the middle
•
Tungsten (CCt)
Tungsten emulates the CCT shift seen as traditional tungsten fixtures are dimmed.
Tungsten mode works at all colour temperatures and starts warming up when dimming below 50%. A
“t” will appear on the LED display after the colour temperature as the CCT displayed will no longer be an
accurate reflection of output.
NOTE: Some desks designed for LED fixtures have curves built in. It is important to ensure that your Silk
fixture is in linear mode when imposing an additional curve from a desk to avoid compound and confusing output
performance.
