OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Operating Modes:
You can use the LED PAR 38 in four ways:
• Sound-Active mode - Reacts to sound, chasing through the built-in programs.
• Auto Mode - Automatically chases through the different colors.
• RGB Mode - Projects a single static color.
• DMX control mode - This function will allow you to control each individual fixture with a standard
DMX 512 controller.
