FAN CONTROL AND LOW NOISE OPERATION The KL Spot IP is a high-performance fixture suited for multiple applications. For noise critical environments such as Theater, Opera, or Orchestral Halls, it offers various fan operation modes which remove unwanted noise distractions for the audience and performers. Fan Modes can be changed remotely via the DMX control channel, allowing the fixture to offer high output or whisper-silent operation at a moment’s notice.
