Virtual color wheel

The virtual color wheel channel gives quick access to fixed color presets. You can set
the fixture to change from one color preset to another automatically with variable
speed or in time with a music beat. You can decide whether the CL1 should snap
from one color to the next or crossfade with variable fade time.
You can apply the color wheel effect to the whole fixture in Basic and Pattern DMX
modes. In Pattern DMX Mode, you can also apply the color wheel effect to any
pattern that you have superimposed onto the main 'scene'.
Note that the color wheel has higher priority than the RGB channels. The virtual color
wheel channel must be set to DMX value 000 before you can use RGB color mixing.
The color wheel control options available for the whole fixture and for the pattern
are the same:
• The first part of the color wheel channel (values 000 → 123) selects one of 30 color
presets.
• The second part of the color wheel channel (values 128 → 191) gives automatic
changing between color presets with a snap (instant) change. You can vary the
color change rate from slow to fast, or you can link the instant color changes to
the CL1's integrated audio trigger microphone. When using audio triggering you
can decide whether a color change is triggered every beat or every 4, 8 or 16
beats.
• The third part of the color wheel channel (192 → 255) gives automatic changing
between color presets with a smooth crossfade. You can vary the crossfading rate
from slow to fast, or you can link the crossfading color changes to the CL1's
integrated audio trigger microphone. When using audio triggering you can
decide whether a color change is triggered every beat or every 4, 8 or 16 beats.

RGB / Pattern RGB

The RGB channels available in Basic and Pattern DMX Modes let you mix custom
colors on all the fixture's pixels together (the main 'scene') and on any pattern that
you select to run on top of the main 'scene'. Color mixing uses separate Red, Green
and Blue intensity control.
The options for mixing custom colors on the whole fixture and on the superimposed
pattern are identical.

Control / Settings

A special channel available in all DMX modes lets you modify some important fixture
settings by DMX. Remotely adjust settings like this can be very helpful if fixture
performance needs to be adjusted during the show or simply to create special
scenes.
For most of these settings you need to send the required DMX value and then hold it
for a certain number of seconds to activate.
