03)

 

Press the FIXTURES button (01)(24) once again to cancel the selection of the fixtures in step 1. The 
LEDs on the buttons will turn off. Skip steps 3 and 4, if you have selected the same LEDs type for all 
connected fixtures in step 1. 

04)

 

Repeat steps 1–3 to set up the LEDs types for the remaining fixtures. 

 
DMX Starting Address of the Connected Fixtures 
The ColorCue 3 calculates automatically the starting DMX address of each connected fixture depending 
on the LEDs type setup. Each color is controlled on a separate DMX channel. However, there are no 
reserved DMX channels for each color and only the active channels are used.  
 
For example, if you want to connect 3 fixtures with RGB LEDs and 3 fixtures with RGBWA/UV LEDs, the 
starting DMX address of the connected 6 fixtures will be as follows:  
 

Fixture

The starting DMX address of the last selected fixture is displayed on the setup mode screen.  

 

Approach 1: 

If you want to note down the starting DMX addresses, select one fixture first, 
change the LEDs type and then select the rest of the fixtures. Thus, each time the 
screen will display the correct starting DMX address of each fixture. 

 

Approach 2:  

If you select all fixtures first and then set the LEDs type, only the starting DMX 
address of the last fixture will be displayed on the screen. 

There are no functional differences between Approach 1 and 2. 
 
MIDI Address Setup 
In setup mode press the UP/DOWN buttons (25)/(28) to assign the MIDI address of the ColorCue 3. The 
selection range is 1–16. Refer to MIDI Implementation Chart on page 21 for more information. 

Control Modes 

The device has 2 control modes:  

 

Double (12-fixture) mode, and 

 

Single (24-fixture) mode. 

 
Press the FIXTURES button (30) to toggle between double and single control mode. In single mode the LED 
on the button will light up in red and in double mode in green
 
Double (12-Fixtures) Mode 
In double (12-fixtures) mode you can control up to 12 fixtures. You can create scenes in Bank A and 
Bank B. In manual operating mode you can crossfade between the scenes in Bank A and Bank B. 
 
In double mode the FIXTURES buttons and faders (01)(12) control Bank A scene values of the connected 
up to 12 fixtures, and the FIXTURES buttons and faders (13)(24) control Bank B scene values of these 
fixtures. In this mode BANK A master fader and flash button (K) control the Bank A output, and BANK B 
master fader and flash button (L) control the Bank B output. 
 
Single (24-Fixtures) Mode 
In single (24-fixtures) mode you can control up to 24 fixtures. You can create single scenes. It is not 
possible to work with Bank A and Bank B scenes in this mode. However, you can still transition between 
the scenes but without crossfading.
