Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
To use a light as a Bluetooth Bridge (BTB), power on the light and hold the power button for 3 seconds until it flashes blue. In the AsteraApp, navigate to 'Manage Bluetooth Bridges', tap '+', and follow the on-screen instructions.
A reset is recommended before each use to unlink CRMX and unbond Bluetooth. Hold the power button down; the light will turn off, then back on, and blink blue. Continue holding until the blinking stops and the light turns red.
Many Astera products, such as the AX series and QuikPunch, are rated IP65 for outdoor use. However, some items like the SolaBulb may require specific covers (e.g., Waterproof Protection Cover) to achieve IP44 ratings. Always check the specific user manual for IP ratings and restrictions.
OutputGain enhances the brightness of the fixture for events and stage use. For film or TV where color accuracy is critical, you can turn OutputGain off to optimize color quality and skin tones.
