5. Operating Modes
The SHEHDS Mini LED Moving Head Lights offer several operating modes to suit various applications:
- DMX512 Control: Allows precise control over all functions (color, movement, dimming, strobe) using a DMX controller. Supports 11 or 13 DMX channels.
- Master/Slave Mode: Link multiple fixtures together. One fixture acts as the master, controlling the others (slaves) to synchronize effects.
- Sound Activated Mode: The lights react to ambient sound or music, creating dynamic effects synchronized with the beat.
- Color Jumping Mode: Pre-programmed sequences of color changes.
- Stand-alone Strobe: Produces a rapid flashing effect.

The fixture features 540° Pan and 270° Tilt movement, allowing for wide coverage and dynamic beam positioning. The RGBW 4-in-1 LED provides Red, Green, Blue, and White colors, which can be mixed to create various hues. Smooth electronic dimming from 0-100% is also available.
