MODES OF OPERATION

Show Mode

Show Mode is the default mode of operation, where presets and moods may be selected, and tempo
functions are adjustable. There are 31 preset chases (#0–30) and 20 unique moods to choose from,
using the Preset and Mood encoders. For a detailed listing of presets and color options, see the color
options and mood guide sheet included in the box. "Cycle Mode" and "Music Mode" may both work in
conjunction with Show Mode for a fully automated experience.
To select a Preset/Lighting Chase:
1. Turn the <PRESET> Encoder knob until your desired preset is flashing on the bottom line of
the LCD display.
2. Press/Click the <PRESET> Encoder knob to confirm your selection.
To select a Mood/Color Palette:
1. Turn the <MOOD> Encoder knob until your desired preset is flashing on the top line of
the LCD display.
2. Press/Click the <MOOD> Encoder knob to confirm your selection.
Additional controls in Show Mode:
•Adjust the overall brightness of the lights by turning the <DIMMER> Knob.
•Switch between fading or switching color transitions by pressing the <FADE> button.
• Manually adjust the speed of lighting chases by turning the <SPEED> knob, or tapping the
<TAP TEMPO> button at the desired BPM. The current BPM will always be shown in the upper
right-hand corner of the LCD Display while in Show Mode.

Cycle Mode

Cycle Mode works in conjunction with Show Mode. Press the <CYCLE> button to activate this mode.
When activated, the green backlight will be illuminated, and preset chases/moods will change in a
random order. The "Cycle Opt" setting in the settings menu determines whether Cycle Mode affects
only the preset, only the mood, or both the preset and mood. These presets and/or moods will change
after a pre-determined amount of sequence completions, adjustable from the "Cycle Rate" setting, also
in the settings menu.

Music Mode

Music Mode works in conjunction with Show Mode. Press the <MUSIC> button to activate this mode.
When activated, the blue backlight will be illuminated, and preset chases will automatically follow the beat
of the music. By default, audio will be received through the built-in microphone, but can be overridden by
plugging an audio source directly into the back of the unit, using a TRS cable.
Audio Sensitivity can be adjusted to ensure that chases move to the intended beat. To do this, turn
the <Audio Sensitivity> knob up or down to alter the level of the audio signal being received by the
microphone or TRS input.
