Segment Mode

Configure the light to have up to 10 segments that scale in size automatically with the length of the light or select Manual Segment Configuration which allows each segment to have a custom LED width and LED offset from the beginning of each segment to the beginning of the light.
Use process data to set each segment to off, solid on, flash, or animation mode. Use parameter data to change segment number and configuration, color, intensity, flash speed, direction, background, threshold markers, and select animation type.

Level Mode

Use process data to set the level value. Use parameter data to set range, thresholds, colors, intensities, flash speeds, background, threshold markers, and animation types.

General Settings	Description
Level Mode Value	Value of the level of the light (between 0 to 65,535)
Full Scale Value	Set the upper limit of the Level Mode Value (between 0 to 65,535)
Background Color and Intensity	A defined color and intensity is displayed on LEDs that are not active
Dominance	Dominant: The entire light displays the active threshold color Non-Dominant: LEDs display their defined threshold colors
Sub-Segment Style	If Level Mode Value is a partial percentage of an LED, select if the segment will be on steady or analog dimmed to the partial percentage
Filtering	Smooths the input signal by varying the sample size None: There is no filtering Low: The sample size is short and changes to the input signal are more noticeable High: The sample size is long and changes to the input signal are less noticeable
Hysteresis	Determines the signal value change needed to transition between thresholds and to prevent chatter None: The value follows the input signal High: A large value change is needed to transition between thresholds
Level Mode Threshold Markers	Threshold markers display LED(s) at the defined thresholds and can be configured as either dominant or non-dominant. Threshold marker location and width are defined by the offset and width parameters, respectively, in segment mode.

Color 2 and Color 3 define the beginning and end value of a second line across the color gamut. The light displays a blended color and moves along the two lines as defined by the Dim and Blend Mode Value and color intensities.
Filtering	Smooths the input signal by varying the sample size None: There is no filteringLow: The sample size is short and changes to the input signal are more noticeableHigh: The sample size is long and changes to the input signal are less noticeable
