ETC Installation Guide
ColorSource CYC v1.7
The display will automatically return to the DMX address after 10 seconds of
inactivity, and edits to the DMX control mode will not be saved. This cancels
unsaved changes.
Note:
Direct mode (
dir
) on the ColorSource CYC is not a calibrated
mode. As a result, you may see discrepancies in color between
fixtures. ETC recommends operating in one of the calibrated modes,
such as 5-channel mode or RGB mode. (Calibrated modes make
accommodations for the specific LEDs in the array and produce output
that is consistent with other fixtures. Direct mode bypasses this
calibration, and multiple fixtures may produce slightly different
outputs when controlled as a group.)

*Use DMX values of 0 or 255 for no strobe. Use values of 1–254 to increase the strobe rate
from 1 per second up to 33 per second.
Data Loss Behavior
When DMX data is lost, the fixture does one of the following actions:
•
If you selected a preset or sequence, that preset or sequence
automatically plays.
•
If no preset or sequence is active in the background, the fixture goes
dark and the DMX start address flashes on the user interface.
