1. Product overview
The Chroma-Q® Color Force II PlusTM LED batten range is a powerful lineup of professional cyc and wash lights. These super bright fixtures easily wash up to 12m / 39 ft. walls or cycloramas. In addition, the advanced color mixing and control management technologies together give you a radically increased color palette, a high CRI and theatrical grade dimming, all in the same fixture.
Optional slide-in "Cyc Light" and "Border Light" optical len s accessories are available to adjust the light output to suit a wide range of applications.
The Chroma-Q® Color Force II Plus
TM
lighting fixture is designed specifically for professional indoor entertainment lighting. The fixture can be wall or floor mounted with the adjustable quick-release end-plate fixing system. For hung bar or truss mounting, additional bar clamp hardware is required.
The Color Force II PlusTM features built-in power supplies and can operate as a stand-alone unit or be remotely controlled through ANSI E1.11 USITT DMX 512-A protocol via a cable or a Lumen Radio wireless connection when using the optional radio module.
The Color Force II PlusTM is available in three lengths, the Color Force II Plus 72TM model which features a total of 24 high output RGBA cells (or pixels), the Color Force II Plus 48TM model which features a total of 16 high output RGBA cells (or pixels) and the Color Force II Plus 12TM model which features a total of 4 high output RGBA cells (or pixels). Each cell provides a homogenized color output with no unsightly color shadowing like fixtures using traditional individual-colored emitters.
The control options incorporate a choice of RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Amber), RGB (Red, Green, Blue, with *Magic Amber) and HSI (Hue, Saturation and Intensity) control modes.
The product's robust anodized aluminum extruded construction houses a discreet cable management system. Additional protection is built around the lenses for a truly road proof fixture.

RGBA (Red, Green, Blue and Amber) provides 4 control channels that directly affect the intensity of
each color within a group. Color is mixed by adjusting the levels of each of the four channels. The DMX footprint will be determined by the grouping option selected. White (of about 4,000K) is achieved with all channels at full. Refer to the table below for detail on grouping and DMX footprints. This mode assigns 4 DMX channels to set Red, Green, Blue and Amber levels in each cell, or group of cells.

RGB (Red, Green, Blue with *Magic Amber™) gives 3 control channels directly affecting the intensity of the corresponding group.

HSI (Hue, Saturation and Intensity) gives 3 control channels to each group; 2 color channels for hue and saturation and one intensity channel. A separate definable intensity channel is particularly useful when creating intensity chases or when the grand master is used. The hue channel has 255 different colors available and the saturation channel specifies the saturation level of that color. The saturation channel is fully saturated at full. White is achieved with the intensity channel to full and the saturation channel at zero. *Magic Amber is the term used for the unit's ability to bring in amber when mixing colors that require
it. Look Sel (Look Select) gives 1 control channel to select a preset look based on the DMX value. Refer
to the table below for factory presets. MASTER sets the fixture to output a DMX stream for control of any fixtures connected “downstream”.

4.2. Grouping Options
Color Force II Plus offers a powerful, wide variety of grouping options for the individual cells (or pixels) within each fixture. Grouping is independent of control Mode selection. A Color Force II Plus 72TM fixture consists of 24 cells, a Color Force II Plus 48TM fixture consists of 16 cells and a Color Force II Plus 12TM fixture consists of 4 cells. “Cell” or pixel grouping allows individual control of each single cell or various grouping of cells as defined in the tables below. In “x24/x16/x4” grouping, all cells in the Color Force II Plus
TM
72/48/12, the fixtures will be controlled as 1 group. In x1 each cell is
being controlled independently for a total of 24, 16 or 4 individual cells for the Color Force II Plus
TM
72, 48 or 12 respectively. See tables below where the number in the table indicates the group number. In RGBA Mode each group uses 4 DMX slots; in RGB & HSI Modes each group uses 3 DMX slots.
Od / Ev: Controls every other cell (pixels) in two groups of control – odd cell and even cells. Skp2: Provides control of three groups comprising every third cell (pixel) on the fixture. Skp3: Provides control of four groups comprising every forth cell (pixel) on the fixture. Skip6: Provides control of six groups comprising every sixth cell (pixel) on the fixture.

Thermal Performance
The Color Force II Plus
TM
12, 48 & 72 fixtures feature internal fans that control the internal cooling.
If the internal temperature of the Color Force II Plus exceeds 75ºC the output of the fixture will be reduced for automatic protection. This happens on rare and extreme conditions when ambient temperature is over 35ºC or the internal fans are blocked or damaged.
The airflow to and from the fan must not be constricted to maintain the maximum light output of the Color Force II Plus
TM
.
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting is a process of elimination. First, rule out the other field factors (i.e. bad connections, faulty cables and power supplies). For technical support and/or parts, please contact your selling dealer or the offices listed in this manual.
Symptom
Possible Cause
Solution
Fixture does not respond to DMX control.
Set to wrong or different DMX address. Bad cable connecting DMX control and
fixture. Bad in/through connection
between adjacent fixtures. Console patch is incorrect.
Check DMX address and Mode settings.
Check/replace DMX run from the console.
Check DMX values in the Setup/DMX Data screen as described above to verify the fixture is “seeing” the DMX data.
Noise from fixture unit.
Fan malfunction.
Check fan.
Low LED output.
Internal temperature is over the limit. Fan is not working.
Verify Engine temperature using the Setup/Eng Temp screen as described above.
Check “Fan Control” mode. Check fan. Check for airflow - to and
from the internal fan. Check area ventilation.
Maintenance
With care, the Color Force II Plus will require little maintenance. However, as the unit is likely to be used in a stage environment, we recommend periodical internal inspection and cleaning of any resulting dust and/or cracked oil residue.
Do not spray liquids on the front or rear panel. If the front enclosure requires cleaning, wipe with a mild detergent on a damp cloth.
