PERATION Virtual Color Wheel The Ovation B-565FC includes a feature called the Virtual Color Wheel (VCW). This feature is available as a stand-alone control mode for manual use and also as a control channel in each of the products’ DMX personalities.
Note: The color temperatures above are simulated renditions of the color output produced as compared to a tungsten lamp at the specified color temperature. Chauvet makes no guarantee of the color output accuracy. Configuration (Standalone) Use standalone configuration to operate the product without a DMX controller.
The master should be the first product in the daisy chain. Dimmer Profiles This setting determines how fast the output of the Ovation B-565FC changes when you modify the output value. This setting provides four different options to simulate the dimming curve of an incandescent lighting product.
PERATION Back Light This setting allows for selection of the amount of time the backlight on the Ovation B-565FC’s display stays on after the last button is pressed on the control panel. Go to the Back Light main level. Select On (remains on), 10S (10 seconds), 20S (20 seconds), or 30S (seconds).
Softly drag any dirt or grime to the outside of the transparent surface. Gently polish the transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint. Always dry the transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them. Page 27 of 30 Ovation B-565FC User Manual Rev. 1...
