P12 Wash
DMX MODE - setting the operation mode
The P12 Wash has 2 operating modes (see channel assignment page 21). All parameters of
P12 Wash can be operated via mode 1. However, all channels (except pan/tilt) are controlled with
8 bits. By selecting Mode 2 - 16 Bit the gobo, prism rotation, CMY/CTO, dimmer, focus, zoom,
the complete shutter slide unit as well as pan/tilt are controlled via 16 Bit.
CAMERA MODE - setting the repetition frequency of the LEDs
To avoid flickering during TV recordings, the P12 Wash can be adjusted from 50 Hertz (PAL,
Secam) to 60 Hertz (NTSC) for different camera systems. Flex mode is set when using different
camera systems or when shooting with mobile phone cameras or similar non-professional
cameras. A HighFlex mode is also available. In this mode, the repetition frequencies are set
to 3 kHz, which is necessary to ensure smooth movements in dimmed lighting scenes. The
factory setting of the P12 Wash is 60 Hertz. The changeover is also possible with the light mixing
console via the control channel.
CURVES - setting dimmer, RGB/CMY, frost curve
Dimmer curve:
The dimmer curve can be changed from exponential (square) to linear. The “exponential” dimmer
curve (factory setting) causes the dimmer to fade in and out more smoothly.
RGB/CMY curve:
3 different curves can be set for the RGB / CMY curve. SQUARE INV. LEGACY is the original
curve of the P12. The SQUARE-INV.LEGACY curve causes a visually more uniform retraction.
LINEAR and SQUARE INV., Are the two adapted curves on the P18 MK2.
Frost curve:
The frost curves can be changed from invers exponential (square inv.) to linear. The “invers
exponential” frost curve causes the frost to fade in and out more smoothly.
COOLING MODE - adjustment of brightness and fan volume
In the COOLING MODE menu item you can set the fan control and the brightness of the P12
Wash. The following settings are available.
THEATRE WHISPER: Brightness 19000lm, volume 29dB(a). In this mode, the spotlight runs at
the same brightness up to an ambient temperature of 40°C. It is not necessary to speed up the
fans in this mode.
THEATRE SILENT: Brightness 21000lm, from 40°C ambient temperature the spotlight regulates
the fans a little up thus remains that the brightness is always the same level.
STANDARD: Brightness 23000lm, from an ambient temperature of approx. 36°C the fans run to
cool the LED accordingly. The brightness remains constant.
BOOST: Brightness 25000lm, the fans run a little stronger in this mode, from approx. 40° ambient
temperature the fans run again accordingly.
LONGLIFE: Brightness 21000lm, the fans run a little stronger in this mode, from approx. 40°
ambient temperature the fans run again accordingly. We would recommend this mode for per-
manent installations, as the LED module runs cooler and thus more “stress-free”.
There is no danger to the life of the device in any mode, as the P12 Wash has a temperature safe-
ty shutdown. In addition, the LED module is switched off from an ambient temperature of 60°C!
DMX OUTPUT CONFIG - configuration of the DMX output
Under this menu item, the DMX output of the headlamp can be activated, that is a received Art-
net, or wireless DMX signal can be output by activating this menu item -> ON via the DMX socket
again. Make sure that there is no signal at the DMX input at the same time !!
Under IP ADDRESS -> DEFAULT IP this can be changed from the network 10.xxx.xxx.xxx to a
network 2.xxx.xxx.xxx. For your own self-definable IP address, you can set your own desired IP
address under IP ADDRESS -> USER-IP. This address is divided into BYTE1 to BYTE 4 and can
be set one after the other.
