Operation

OLOURS
Palco 3 and Palco 5 are fitted with a white balancing system that can be customized and stored for each
fixture for an unlimited number of times. Moreover, in the context of any balance which is set, it’s
possible also possible to adjust colour temperature in a completely dynamic manner according to needs,
by means of the CTC channel, with a certain range round the balanced white or Full Colour value.
All these operations can be carried out via DMX, or directly on the fixture itself. Should it be necessary to
balance the white via DMX, proceed as follows:
1.
Set the Color_Mode channel at 220 (85%)
2.
Use the RED, GREEN and BLUE channels to obtain the required white balance
3.
Set the Macro channel at 71 (28%)
4.
Increase Color_Mode to the maximum - 255 (100 %). After 4 seconds, the new white balance is
stored by the Palco
The Color Mode channel can also be used as an instant selector between: previously stored balance (at
the value of 127) or Full-color Power (at the value of 0) when total colour emission is required, without
any limits being set by the balance.
C
OLOUR TEMPERATURE
The CTC channel allows to adjust Palco’s colour temperature. It acts in a range around the white balance
or Full-Color, according to requirements. It’s therefore possible to cool or heat in a linear manner
absolutely any type of previously chosen white by more or less 2000 K°

TROBO
The Shutter/Strobe channel allows an endless number of shutter effects to be achieved. As well as the
adjustable frequency strobe effect (from 1 Hz to 20 Hz), it’s possible to create Random-Strobe effects at
three different speeds. Low – Medium - High). Palco is also fitted with a Pulse Open and Close effect for
each of the three different speeds (Low – Medium – High)
