Frost Parameter
The Frost effect is achieved with a single flag that moves into the optical path.
Focus Parameters
Two channels determine the focus function providing 16-bit control for smooth and precise
control. The
Focus
Course
and
Focus
Fine
parameters focus from in at a DMX value of 0 to out
at a DMX value of 255.
Zoom Parameter
The Technospot fixture has a 3:1 zoom ranging from 11° to 34°. The
Zoom
Coarse
and
Zoom
Fine
parameters provide 16-bit continuous control for smooth and precision zoom function from
in at a DMX value of 0 to out at a DMX value of 255.
Iris Parameter
The Technospot iris has a variable circular opening that controls the beam diameter in a similar
fashion as a camera's iris controls the amount of light entering the camera.
Iris
is a continuous
parameter that adjusts the iris from closed at a DMX of 0 to open at a DMX value of 255.
