Effects

The Q-8 is a luminaire with RGBW panels and white LED stripes (see figure 13). A total of eight individually controllable segments;
four of which generates wide-ranging color effects and pixel-mapping combinations, and four for dedicated white strobe blinders.
High-speed strobe effect
The Q-8 features two stripes of dedicated strobe light. These strobes have multiple modes, including: random strobe, pulse effects
and plus effects with variable speed.
Beam angle
The standard Q-8 offers a native 110º beam angle in the Q section, and a native 84º beam angle in the strobe blinders. These can
be modified using different optional magnetic holographic filter frames and barndoors.

Individual fixture settings

Flipping the OLED display
If the fixture is installed hanging upside down, it might be useful to flip the display so that it is easier to read.
To flip the display, press ENTER and select SETTINGS → FLIP DISPLAY, or press the up and down buttons on the control panel
at the same time.
Setting the OLED display saver
By default the OLED display turns off after a short period when the control panel is not in use. The display can also be set to dim
down. Pressing any key will always turn on the display or restore it to normal brightness.
To configure the display settings, press ENTER → SETTINGS → DISPLAY SAVER.
NOTE: To avoid the risk of display deterioration caused by long term use, it is recommended to select the setting → DISPLAY OFF.
Setting the fan mode
For operating environments where low-noise is a requirement, or where the fixture will be operating in high temperatures, it is
possible to adjust the default fan speed by going to SETTINGS → FAN MODE in the menu.
