Page 2: Product Overview
1. I NTRODUCTION RODUCT VERVIEW MultiFlash indoor LED fixtures are combination wash/strobe/blinders with over 1000 Watts of LED RGBW brightness, 58,000 lumens, instantaneous color mixing, and 1200Hz refresh rate for smooth on-camera dimming. Q+ Technology increases the brightness with practically no fan noise. Its “Theatre Mode” is effectively silent, yet still 8% brighter than the original MultiFlash! One MultiFlash LED fixture does the job of many conventional LED fixtures, saving setup time and labor. - Page 3 Safety Instructions ● Please keep this user guide for future consultation. If you sell the unit to another user, be sure that they also receive this instruction booklet. ● Always make sure that you are connecting to the proper voltage, and that the line voltage you are connecting to is not higher than that stated on the decal or rear panel of the fixture.

Page 9: Menu Function Description
UNCTION ESCRIPTION DMX Address – To set the required DMX address, open the Main Menu: 1) Press and hold <MENU> button to open the Main Menu. 2) Use <UP> and <DOWN> buttons to find the DMX address function. 3) Press <SELECT> button to access the DMX address value change submenu. 4) Use <UP>... - Page 10 7) The work-state control panel display shows current DMX address (in this example 198). Additional info is displayed under the DMX address: Selected control mode, channels used by this mode, and occupied DMX addresses (DMX footprint). In this example MODE: RGB pix:1 (10ch) DMX footprint: 198 - 207 (meaning: RGB control mode with 1 pixel using 10 DMX channels uses DMX 198 to 207).

Page 11: Basic Mode
ASIC In Basic Mode, the fixture can be used as a wash/blinder, generic strobe, or color strobe. The first modes are the RGB and RGBW modes in 8bit resolution or 16bit resolution. The RGB modes are designed to automatically adjust the white LEDs according to the RGB mix coming from the lighting controller. -
Page 12: Strobe Modes
TROBE ODES Four channels control the functions of the strobe parameter: Strobe Intensity, Strobe Duration, Strobe Rate and Strobe FX. There are a number of effects that also use the strobe rate and duration controls to affect the effect’s look. Please experiment to find the right duration and rate for your application. - Page 13 When burst is activated, use the rate channel at FULL to access a hyper-speed strobe When Meltdown with Solid background is active, the Strobe Color determines the random pixel color, and the background color is determined by the pixel colors after the strobe fx channels. There is no background color when in RGB Strobe and RGBW Strobe mode.
- Page 14 RGB and RGBW STROBE MODES Note: In RGB Strobe and RGBW Strobe mode, there is also a feature in the Strobe FX channel that allows the MultiFlash to become a temporary wash/blinder fixture. If you set the Strobe FX channel to DMX value 5, the Strobe color Channels become strobe wash/blinder color and Strobe Intensity is used as a master intensity channel.

Page 15: Advanced Modes
DVANCED ODES This control submenu setup is for advanced users allowing control of both Strobe Color and Strobe Intensity/Duration/Rate/FX independently of Wash/Blinder background color. This also allows independent control of individual segments (pixels) RGB or RGBW control can be selected, plus the desired pixel segments. The LED segments are comprised of 8 LEDs. - Page 16 – MultiFlash (Q+), MultiFlash LR Q+, MultiFlash Rayzr IXEL OCATIONS MultiFlash / MultiFlash Q+ have 96 10W Cree LEDs which are located in 8 rows and 16 columns. MultiFlash LR Q+. consists of 108 10W Cree LEDs which are located in 12 pixels, 3x3 pixel groups. In advanced controlling modes MultiFlash, MultiFlash Q+, and MultiFlash LR Q+ may be controlled as a wash with 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 12 pixel modes.
- Page 17 – MultiFlash M3 IXEL OCATIONS MultiFlash M3 consists out of 32 10W Cree LEDs which are located in 4 rows and 8 columns. In advanced controlling modes, the MultiFlash M3 can be controlled as a wash in 1, 2, or 4 pixel modes. Note: Only the entire fixture can be strobed.

Page 20: Manual Function
MANUAL FUNCTION This menu function allows selection of the intensity of wash/blinder background color, strobe color, and strobe functions. This functions as a stand-alone mode. Manual values are saved if power is shut down. A reset will clear these values (see Menu Maps, pages 9-10). Demo –... - Page 21 Gamma – Gamma correction curve selection. This sets direct relation between AC current to the LEDs and the DMX value. The lower the value, the dimming curve and steps of intensity will be more noticeable at the bottom of the DMX range. The higher the value, the smoother the bottom end of the curve will be where the human eye detects more subtle changes.
