5.2. Operating Modes
- DMX512 Control (18-Channel): For professional control, connect to a DMX controller. The light supports 18 DMX channels, allowing precise manipulation of pan, tilt, color, gobos, dimming, strobe, and other effects. Refer to the DMX chart in the appendix for channel assignments.
- Sound Active Mode: The built-in microphone detects music and sound, synchronizing light movements and color changes to the beat. This mode is ideal for dynamic, responsive lighting without external control.
- Master/Slave Mode: Connect multiple lights via DMX cables. Set one unit as the 'Master' and others as 'Slave' units. The slave units will mirror the master's movements and effects, creating synchronized light shows.
- Auto Mode: The light cycles through pre-programmed patterns and effects automatically. This mode is suitable for hands-free operation.

5.3. Key Effects and Adjustments
- Electronic Focus (Zoom): Adjust the beam angle from a tight 8° to a wider 40° using the electronic focus feature. This allows for precise control over the light spread.
- Dimming: The light supports 0-100% linear dimming, enabling smooth transitions in brightness.
- Strobe: The strobe effect can be adjusted from 1 to 30 flashes per second, creating dynamic visual pulses.
- Color Wheel: Utilize the 9+1 color wheel to select from a variety of colors or create split colors.
- Gobo Wheels: Engage the 9+1 fixed gobo wheel or the 6+1 rotating gobo wheel to project various patterns and textures. The rotating gobos also feature shaking capabilities.
- Prism Effects: Activate the 5-facet prism to multiply the light beam, creating complex and expansive patterns.
- Atomization/Frost: Apply the frost effect to soften the beam, transforming it into a wash light.
