Control Modes
- DMX512 Mode: For professional control, connect the light to a DMX controller. The unit supports 11/14 DMX channels. Refer to the DMX channel chart in the detailed instruction manual for specific functions and values. This mode allows precise control over movement (X-axis 540°-630°, Y-axis infinite rotation), RGBW color mixing, dimming, strobe, and other effects.
- Master-Slave Mode: Link multiple units together. Set one unit as the "Master" and others as "Slave" units. The slave units will synchronize their effects with the master unit.
- Sound Activated Mode: The built-in microphone detects sound, and the light effects will react to the rhythm of the music. This mode is ideal for parties and events without a DMX controller.
- Self-Propelled (Auto) Mode: The light will run through pre-programmed internal shows automatically. Use the control panel to select different auto programs.
