UP: Selects the previous mode or increases the value of the selected mode.
DOWN: Selects the next mode or decreases the value of the selected mode.
ENTER: Selects the currently displayed mode for editing or accepts the edited value.
The following table shows the menu options, their possible values, and what they mean.

"WHITE BALANCE"
The White Balance function allows you to adjust the overall tint of the light produced by having
all LED colors on. You can adjust how much of each individual color element is allowed to be
displayed.
Note that when White Balance is active, it effects the overall light output. For example, if in the
White Balance function you set the Red light brightness value to 000 (no brightness), you will
not see any red in any of the light produced by this fixture, even if using a preset program or
directly accessing the red color.
Editing the white balance involves sequentially setting the following values:

Notes:
USon = White balance is on
USoF = White balance if off
SEon = The white balance values will be sent to other lights in this universe.
SEoF = The local white balance values will NOT be sent to other lights.
rEt = Press the Enter button with this displayed to save the settings and exit.
If you don't want to save the changes, press the Menu button to back out of this entry.
"nodE"
The "nodE" function serves as a speed limiter for manual dims and fades. When set to "nod0", any
manual dims or fades will be in real time, meaning that light will dim or fade as fast as you move the
slider on the controller. The other "nodE" values (1-4) are progressively slower than real time.
Note that this functionality is expanded in channel 10 of the 10-channel DMX control mode.
MASTER/SLAVE MODE
Whenever the light is set to a mode other than a DMX address or Slave mode, it is considered to be
in Master mode. For example, when set to the Sound Activated operation, it is in a Master mode.
When the light is the Master, it will send DMX instructions to other connected lights. Those other
lights must be set to Slave mode (SLAU) to receive and execute the instructions sent by the Master
light.
NOTE: Only one light in any DMX Universe can be the Master. All other lights in the chain must be
set to Slave mode (SL.AU).
DMX CONTROL
When the light is set to a DMX address it will respond to signals from a DMX controller. The number
and complexity of the signals it can respond to correspond directly to the number of channels
selected. The following tables show the functions and values for each channel in the four different
channel modes (3,6,8,10 or 11).
