Configuration (Standalone)
Use standalone configuration to operate the product without a DMX controller.
Static Mode
The Static mode allows for permanent dimmer and strobe presets without a DMX controller.
1. Go to the Static main level.
2. Select Fixed Color or Manual Color Mixer.
3. For Fixed Color:
a. Select the desired fixed color (R, G, B, W, GB, RB, RG, RGB, RW, GW, BW, RGW, RBW,
GBW, or RGBW).
For Manual Color Mixer:
a. Select the desired color (Red, Green, Blue, or White).
b. Set the desired value for the selected color (0–255).
c. Repeat steps a-b until the static color is set as desired.
Auto Programs
Auto programs allow for dynamic blinder effects without a DMX controller.
1. Go to the Auto Show main level.
2. Select the desired auto (Auto 1–11).
3. Select the desired speed (1–100).
The auto programs cannot be edited.
Configuration (Settings)
Master/Slave
The Master/Slave mode allows a group of COLORado Panel Q40 products (the slaves) to simultaneously
duplicate the output of another COLORado Panel Q40 (the master) without a DMX controller. To set each
of the slaves:
1. Go to the Master/Slave main level.
2. Select Slave.
To set the master:
1. Go to the Master/Slave main level.
2. Select Master.
3. Select a static setting.
•
The master is the one that runs a program whether in Auto or Static mode.
•
Do not connect a DMX controller to the products configured for Master/Slave operation.
The DMX controller may interfere with signals from the master.
•
The master should be the first product in the daisy chain.
Dimmer Profiles
This setting determines how fast the output of the COLORado Panel Q40 changes when you modify the
output value. This setting provides four different options to simulate the dimming curve of an incandescent
lighting product.
1. Go to the Dimmer Mode main level.
2. Select a dimmer curve (Off, Dimmer 1, Dimmer 2, or Dimmer 3).
Off: The output is proportional (linear) to the dimmer channel value.
Dimmer 1-3: The output follows the dimmer value based on the corresponding dimmer
curve, DIM1 being the fastest.
