There are four different ways of controlling the fixture, which are detailed below.
On-board keypad and display
Wired DMX
Wireless DMX using inbuilt SHoW DMX system

ON-BOARD KEYPAD AND DISPLAY
All settings and configuration can be done using the on-board keypad and OLED display.
Dedicated buttons:
ON/OFF
- Press to turn light on and off
FLASH
- Flashes light on or off when held down
LEVEL
- Adjusts intensity from 0 to 100%
CCT (SAT)
- Adjusts CCT from 2200K to 15000K. Also controls
Saturation when in HSV mode
GRN (HUE)
- Adjust Green/Magenta bias from Full Minus Green to Full Green
(-100 to 100 on display). Also controls Hue when in HSV mode
To access the menu system, press any of the Arrow buttons, then:
Back
- Press to go back a menu level.
Select
- Press to accept current menu item or setting
Up
- Press to scroll up, or increase setting value. Hold to scroll quickly
Down
- Press to scroll down, or decrease setting value. Hold to scroll quickly
Indicator LEDs:
DMX
- Flashes yellow rapidly when DMX signal is present
SHOW
- Flashes blue rapidly when SHoW DMX wireless signal is present
MENU FUNCTIONS
The table below outlines all the menu items and a brief description of their function, for firmware V1.0.0 and above
COLOUR MODE
Normal - CCT
Switch to CCT mode to produce white light with CCT and GRN/MAG control
Colour - HSV
Switch to HSV mode to produce colours with Hue and Saturation control
PRESET
2700K
Set colour temperature to 2700K, GRN/MAG to 0
3200K
Set colour temperature to 3200K, GRN/MAG to 0
4500K
Set colour temperature to 4500K, GRN/MAG to 0
5600K
Set colour temperature to 5600K, GRN/MAG to 0
6500K
Set colour temperature to 6500K, GRN/MAG to 0
DMX Address
Use UP/DOWN arrow keys to set DMX address from 1 to 494 (<512 to allow for all
channels to be patched)
DMX Scenario
Use UP/DOWN arrow keys to set DMX Scenario from 1 to 10 (see DMX implementation
tables for complete description of different scenarios)
Boost Brightness
Boost Brightness allows for increased light output when unit is running at low
temperatures. When Boost Brightness is NOT enabled, the output level of the light is
restricted to that of the normal
‘HOT’ run
ning temperature of the light, even if the light
is running cooler than normal. This prevents ‘output droop’ as the unit heats up
Advanced
ShowDMX ID
Use UP/DWN arrow keys to select Show ID for unit. This must match Show ID of
transmitting device (default setting: 201)
ShowDMX Enabled
SHoW DMX Receiver can be enabled or disabled
High Speed
Enable High Speed Mode
–
this increases the PWM frequency of the unit to allow fast
frame rate shooting (up to 2,000fps). The drawback of using High Speed mode is that
the dimming and colour changing of the unit becomes less fluid and smooth. When
disabled, frame rates of up to 500fps are achievable.
DMX Terminated
Enable to terminate DMX line with 120R resistor internally. The last fixture in the DMX
chain should have this option selected
Display Always On
If this is not enabled, then the OLED display will switch off after a period of no key-
presses, to lengthen it’s lifespan and prevent screen burn
-in
Information
Displays information screen with serial number, temperatures, unit run-hours and other
vital statistics
Restore Defaults
Restores user defaults including DMX address, Show ID and other settings
