3. Setup
3.1 Assembling the Light
- Attach the Light Base: Secure the light base to the bottom of the CL60R unit. This base allows mounting onto a light stand.
- Install the Bowens Mount Reflector: Align the Bowens Mount reflector with the front of the CL60R. Twist clockwise until it locks into place. This reflector enhances light output.
- Remove COB Protective Cover: Before use, remove the COB protective cover from the LED light source.

3.2 Powering the Light
The CL60R offers multiple power options:
- AC Power: Connect the provided power adapter to the light and then to a standard AC outlet.
- USB-C Power Delivery (PD): The CL60R supports power via a USB-C PD power bank or adapter. Ensure the power source can deliver sufficient wattage (e.g., 100W) for full power.
- External Batteries: Compatible with V-mount and NP-F batteries (requires optional accessories).

4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Basic Controls and Display
The CL60R features an intuitive control panel with a 2-inch LED screen and various buttons for adjustment. Refer to the on-screen interface for current settings.
4.2 CCT Mode (Color Temperature)
Adjust the color temperature from 2700K (warm white) to 6500K (cool white) to match ambient light or achieve desired creative effects. Intensity is adjustable from 0% to 100%.
4.3 HSI Mode (Full Color)
In HSI mode, you can access 3,600,000 colors by adjusting Hue, Saturation, and Intensity. This allows for precise color selection for creative lighting scenarios.

4.4 FX Scenes (Special Effects)
The CL60R includes 13 built-in lighting effects to simulate various scenarios:
- Fire
- Spark
- CCT Chase
- Pulsing
- Beacon
- TV
- Party
- Explosion
- Faulty Bulb
- Welding
- Strobe
- Lightning
- SOS

4.5 App Control (Matrix Control System)
The COLBOR CL60R can be controlled via a dedicated smartphone application. The Matrix Control System allows each CL60R unit to act as a controller for other lights when "PowerCube" linked, enabling synchronized adjustments of CCT, HUE, and color temperature for up to 10 lights simultaneously through its Light Neural Networks (LNNs).

4.6 PowerCube Functionality
The PowerCube design allows multiple 65W CL60R lights to be seamlessly combined into a powerful cubic lighting matrix. This enables scaling up total output to 650W by linking up to 8 units, transforming a portable light into a high-power solution.

5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the light. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents. Ensure the light is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
- Storage: Store the CL60R in its carrying bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- COB Protection: Always use the COB protective cover when the light is not in use to prevent damage to the LED beads.
- Ventilation: Ensure ventilation grilles are clear of dust and debris to maintain optimal cooling performance. The aluminum body is designed for efficient heat dissipation.
