Virtual Color Wheel The Ovation CYC 1 FC includes a feature called the Virtual Color Wheel (VCW). This feature is available as a standalone control mode for manual use and as a control channel in select DMX personalities. More than 30 premixed colors, custom blended by Chauvet engineers, are available to call up for easier programming.

2. Select the dimmer curve (S Curve, Linear, Index Curve, or Log Curve).

This setting provides four different options to simulate the dimming curve of an incandescent lighting product.
2. Select PWM Frequency (600Hz, 1200Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, 6000Hz, or 25Khz). Back Light This setting allows for the selection of the amount of time the backlight on the Ovation CYC 1 FC’s display stays on after the last button is pressed on the control panel.
