Color Functions

Color functions determine how each color wheel moves. Each color
function can run at full speed (eight functions) or MSpeed (eight
functions).
Color functions are controlled by DMX channel 5 for color wheel 1 and
channel 7 for color wheel 2. To simplify programming, you can use
combined mode. In combined mode, set channel 7 to combined mode (0-
15) and use channel 5 to assign the color function to both wheels
simultaneously.
Refer to Table 2.1 for the available color functions and descriptions.

¹ Long crossfade and MSpeed times could result in undesirable effects as there will be no
light output.
Note: combined mode will not allow colors to be combined with the aqua or
indigo positions because they do not mix.

Allows the color wheel(s) to take the quickest path
and snap to whole and half colors.
Allows variable speed forward spins.
Allows variable speed reverse spins.
Allows the wheel to rotate continually for one com-
plete revolution (0-360°). Combined continuous
mode rotates both wheels to allow all 36 positions to
be reached.
Allows fast scans between whole and half colors.
Allows slow scans between whole and half colors.
Allows variable speed random color selection.
Allows the dim flags to quickly close during color
change. The flags will instantly reopen when the next
programmed position is reached.
