Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Desire Series by ETC product.
Desire’s x7 Color System™ seven-hue technology produces a light and color quality that conventional LED systems cannot duplicate. This unique color system produces bright, broad-spectrum whites and intense colors equally well, rendering pigments, objects, and skin tones in a natural way.
Fire and Ice fixtures use elements of the x7 Color System for superior performance in deep saturated colors.
Studio Daylight and Studio Tungsten fixtures use high-output white LEDs for maximum brightness and efficacy. Studio Tungsten interacts very well with incandescent sources, while Studio Daylight easily replaces a variety of HMI lamps and natural sunlight.

Quick Setups

You can use any one of the Quick Setups and fine-tune settings for either console operation via DMX protocol or standalone operation. For advanced users, an expanded user interface provides easy navigation to all settings and options.

Vivid, Lustr+, Fire and Ice, Studio HD

Some of the options include:
Multiple DMX profiles ranging from a simple 3-channel RGB profile to 8-channel native color and intensity control.
Multiple dimming curve options.
Preset colors and sequences for standalone operation.
White point selection; white light and color behavior based on a specific color temperature white light such as 3200K or 5600K.
Loss-of-data behavior options.
Power regulation modes; three output options that offer a choice between maximum light output for lower duty cycles and maximum thermal stability and output consistency for higher duty cycles.

Studio Daylight and Studio Tungsten

Some of the options include:
Multiple dimming curve options.
Presets and sequences for standalone operation.
Strobe.
Loss-of-data behavior options.
Power regulation modes; three output options that offer a choice between maximum light output for lower duty cycles and maximum thermal stability and output consistency for higher duty cycles.

Note About LED Fixtures

All LED sources experience some lessening of light output and some color shift over time. Desire Series fixtures have complex thermal management systems to minimize these changes. With typical usage, a Desire fixture will still achieve at least 70% of its initial output after 50,000 hours of use (B50, L70). In individual situations, LEDs will be used for different durations and different levels. This can eventually lead to minor alterations in color performance, necessitating slight adjustment to presets, cues, or programs.
All LEDs may exhibit a slight shift in output as they rise to full operating temperature. Desire Series fixtures allow the selection of different power settings in order to balance the competing requirements of thermal stability and brightness. Depending on the selected setting, changes in output as fixtures warm up may or may not be visible to the eye.

Color Rendering Index and Color Quality Scale Ratings

Desire fixtures are evaluated for Color Rendering Index (CRI) and Color Quality Scale (CQS) performance using measured output spectrum and optimized mix solutions for a best spectral match to black body sources at 3200K and 5600K. Color fidelity was also measured. These numbers may fluctuate slightly from fixture to fixture. This is a normal characteristic of white LEDs, and this kind of variation is highly unlikely to be apparent in most applications. The performance is the same for all fixture versions.
Fixture CRI CQS Color Fidelity TLCI Duv
Vivid at 3200K Vivid at 5600K Lustr+ at 3200K Lustr+ at 5600K Studio HD at 3200K Studio HD at 5600K Studio Tungsten at 3000K Studio Daylight at 5600K
87 89 89 65 0.000
90 92 92 74 0.000
86 88 88 66 0.000

92 94 94 91 0.000
86 86 86 56 0.001
71 70 69 43 0.001
Desire luminaires provide excellent color rendering, particularly the color-mixing versions. A Duv rating of 0.000 indicates that the color mix used was exactly on the black body line, with no green or magenta tint.
Studio Daylight and Studio Tungsten fixtures use only white-type LEDs at a fixed color temperature in order to maximize output and efficacy.

Installation Clearances

Cooling and Duty Cycle

Desire D22 and D40 Series fixtures are convection cooled and can operate all channels at full power continuously in ambient temperatures up to 40°C (104°F). The Desire D60 is equipped with a cooling fan, which is automatically controlled.
If ambient conditions exceed 40°C (104°F) or fail to allow sufficient airflow, over a long period of time, the fixtures may shut down and remain off until they return to a safe operating temperature. The fixtures provide two methods to indicate over temperature that can be set up on the Local Settings menu. The over temperature indicators are:
Visible
The LED array glows in a dull, low intensity with only some emitters illuminated, the LCD backlight is turned on, the LCD displays Overtemp Activated, and the Error Indicator light turns on.
Dark
The LED array turns off and the LCD displays Overtemp Activated. The LCD backlight is not turned on.
CAUTION:
LED life is adversely affected by high-temperature operation. When operating under elevated ambient temperatures, avoid turning all channels to 100% for extended periods, such as channel checks or focusing.
Duty Cycle
Operating the fixtures in higher ambient temperatures or low-airflow situations may cause the power supply to shut down. Following a cool-down period, the power supply will automatically reset and the fixture will return to operation.
It is good practice to power down any device with on-board electronics to limit unnecessary wear on the devices and eliminate residual use of electricity. When not in use, Desire fixtures should be powered down by disconnecting from power either at the breaker or by unplugging.

Termination

D40XT – The last fixture on a DMX line must be terminated with a 120 ohm resistor between pins 2 and 3.
D22 – The last fixture on a DMX/RDM line must be terminated with a 120 ohm resistor, which is accomplished by one of the following.
Portable – The fixture is self terminated, therefore does not require other termination.
Canopy – Terminate with the S1 switch on the Termination Board. Set the switch to the ON position to terminate the last fixture. All others on the DMX/RDM line must be set to OFF.
Track Mount – Terminate with a DataTrack DMX Term Block, ETC Part # 7066A1030 installed at end of the track.

Indicator Lights

The indicator lights show the status of power input (blue), DMX input (green) and fixture errors (red). When the DMX signal is lost, the green indicator flashes.
If the fixture status indicator is configured to Off, the indicator lights will not illuminate. For more information, see Local Settings, page 73.

DMX Profile

Addressing

Addresses must be set between 1 and 510.
Each Desire fixture must be considered a separate DMX device for the purpose of DMX line-loading calculations.
DMX line-loading practice dictates that no more than 32 devices can be daisy-chained together. Consequently, no combination of Desire fixtures totaling more than 32 DMX devices should be configured in one DMX line. For runs of fixtures totaling more than 32 DMX devices, split the DMX runs by using a DMX splitter.
Note:
Depending on the selected fixture profile and activated features, a fixture with a starting address higher than 499 may not have control of all parameters, even though the highest address shown on the user interface is 512.
Addressing is not required for standalone operation.
Note:
When using RDM with D22 track fixtures, ETC recommends connecting no more than 20 fixtures
on a single run.

Profiles

Desire D22, D40, D40XT fixtures occupy 1 to 14 DMX channels depending on the profile and which features are turned on. Desire D60 can occupy up to 15 DMX channels depending on the profile and which features are turned on. The tables below describe the order and function of each channel.
Vivid, Lustr+, Fire and Ice, and Studio HD Profiles
Direct Control
Direct Control uses one DMX channel per individual color within the LED array for a total of seven color channels, arranged according to the Color Mixes table. Each controls the intensity of the color from 0 to 100%. An additional, 8th DMX channel is used as a master intensity fader for controlling the brightness of the overall fixture. Channel 9 is for strobe when enabled.

HSI (Hue Saturation Intensity) and HSIC (Hue, Saturation, Intensity, Color Temperature (White Point))
The HSI profile uses 4 channels of DMX input, corresponding to 16-bit hue (two channels: coarse and fine), saturation, and intensity. The HSI profile makes Desire fixtures compatible with conventional HSI console profiles while capitalizing on fixtures' expanded color capabilities. Channel 5 is for Strobe, when enabled. Also see Color Matching, page
34.
HSIC is similar to HSI, except that it uses an additional 6th channel to control the color temperature of the white point. White point is the color temperature of the white-light output when saturation is at zero. The Red Shift function is automatically disabled in the HSIC profile. The white point address of the D60 occupies a different address. For information about the D60 DMX footprint, refer to D60 (Vivid, Lustr+, Fire, Ice, Studio HD), page 37.

At some settings, small changes in hue and saturation may produce unexpected jumps in brightness.
Shifts in brightness may be perceived during fades across hue, saturation, or both in cues and presets.
RGB
Effectively addresses all 7 colors via three channels of control. The RGB profile produces medium-quality color crossfades. It makes the Desire fixtures compatible with conventional RGB console profiles while maintaining enhanced color production from the fixture. Also see Color Matching, page 34.

Note:
The RGB profile is optimized for maximum brightness at all settings. Sometimes small changes in RGB values may produce unexpected jumps in brightness.
Shifts in brightness may be perceived during color crossfades in cues and presets.
Studio
The fixture produces only white-type light, which is adjustable from 2700 to 6500K. The Studio profile uses 3 DMX channels to control Intensity, white point, and tint, (the green/magenta balance). Tint is adjustable without affecting the white point. All three control parameters are adjustable via DMX as well as onboard with instant access via UI buttons (no menus to scroll).
Studio is the default mode for Studio HD fixtures. The Studio profile is also available on all other Desire Series fixtures. For more information, see Studio Settings, page 77. Also see
Color Matching, page 34.

0 = neutral white 1 to 127 = full plus-green to neutral white 128 = neutral white 129 to 255 = neutral white to full minus-green (full magenta)
Strobe
In most profiles (Vivid, Lustr+, Fire and Ice, Studio HD), strobe is assigned to channel 5. It adds another channel to any of the DMX profiles. Under the Advanced Settings menu, the strobe function may be disabled and the additional channel for strobe will not be used by the fixture. With strobe at either DMX value 0 or 255, the fixture output is constantly on. At DMX 1, the fixture strobes slowly and increases in speed toward DMX 254.
2 Installation and User Interface Overview 33
Page 40
Plus 7
Plus 7 adds precision color-control channels to the HSI, HSIC, RGB, and Studio profiles. For example, HSI with Plus 7 enabled becomes a 14-channel (D22, D40, D40XT) or 15-channel (D60) profile. Placing channel 7 at a value over 51% activates the 14- or 15-channel profile within the fixture. The desired color and intensity is achieved by using the HSI or RGB channels as a starting point. Channels 8 to 14, or 15, represent the native LED colors of the fixture and allow you to adjust each color up or down in order to fine-tune the overall color output.
The D60 Plus 7 addresses occupy different addresses. For information about the D60 DMX footprint, refer to D60 (Vivid, Lustr+, Fire, Ice, Studio HD), page 37.
Note:
Depending on the initial color mix, some LED colors may begin at full intensity. Moving the individual control channels for these colors from 128 to 255 will produce no effective change from the initial color mix. Conversely, some LED colors may begin at zero intensity, and moving individual control channels from 128 to 0 will produce no change.

Color Matching
The color output of all Desire fixtures is calibrated at the factory. When operating in the RGB, HSI, HSIC, or Studio profile, each fixture makes accommodations for the specific LEDs in its array and produces output that is consistent with other fixtures, whether or not they utilize LEDs from the same production batch. Operating in the Direct Control profile or with Plus 7 settings adjustments bypasses this calibration and multiple fixtures may produce slightly different outputs when controlled as a group.
0 to 129 = Plus 7 disabled 130 to 255 = Plus 7 enabled
128 = No change from initial color mix 129-255 = Increase from starting value to full intensity 127-0 = Decrease from starting value to zero intensity
Disable or enable Plus 7 control
Alter the individual LED colors within the array to a maximum of full intensity or a minimum of zero intensity.

Fan Control (D60)
Only the D60 fixtures have a fan. Thus, options for Fan Control are available only on D60 fixtures. The Fan setting allows four options: DMX, Slow, Fast, and Automatic.
With Fan set to DMX, an additional channel of DMX control is added to the fixture profile, immediately following the channel for Strobe. Control is as follows:
DMX 0 — Fan turns on and off automatically, as needed for cooling. Fan remains off when not required by the fixture.
DMX 1 to 254 — Fan is forced on at a continuously variable speed from low to high. Occasionally, the fan speed may be increased automatically by the fixture for additional cooling power when required.
DMX 255 — Fan is forced on at its highest, loudest speed for maximum consistency of noise produced by the fixture.
With Fan set to Slow, Fast, or Automatic, there is no channel for fan control within the DMX profile. At Slow and Fast settings, the fan operates whenever the fixture is powered on, independent of other fixture settings or control.
Slow — Fan runs continuously at a low-noise speed. When necessary, the fan speed may be increased automatically by the fixture for additional cooling power.
Fast — Fan runs continuously at its highest, loudest speed, which never increases automatically.
Automatic — Fan operation is intermittent and based entirely on the fixture's internally calculated cooling requirements.

Plus Seven (Vivid, Lustr+, Fire and Ice, Studio HD)
Plus Seven allows enhanced color-mixing precision when using the RGB, HSI, HSIC, or Studio profile as a starting point for color selection. Enabling Plus Seven adds another 8 DMX channels of control at the end of the control channels already in use by the fixture. For example, in the HSIC profile, with Strobe enabled, the D22, D40, D40XT fixtures use 6 channels of control. Enabling Plus Seven adds another 8 channels to the fixture, for a total of 14 channels of control.
The D60 fixture uses 7 channels of control. With Plus Seven, the total is 15 channels of control.
The first additional channel is an activation channel for the Plus Seven function. A value of 0 to 50% (DMX 0 to 129) deactivates Plus Seven. A value of 51 to 100% (DMX 130 to 255) activates Plus Seven. The remaining 7 additional channels correspond to the individual colors within the fixture's LED array.

Using Plus Seven Control
The following procedure is performed on your lighting console.
Step 1: Select a starting color point for the fixture output using the standard control
channels for RGB, HSI, etc.
Step 2: Set the first additional channel to a value between 51 and 100% to activate Plus
Seven.
Step 3: Refine the fixture output by altering one or more of the 7 individual color
channels.
The starting point for each color is defined by the original color selection in step 1.
The brightness of each color can be increased or decreased from the starting point to any value between zero and full output.
Colors already at full output will not change when the Plus 7 channels are moved up from the starting point, and colors already at zero output will not change when the Plus 7 channels are moved down from the starting point.
The starting point on the Plus 7 color channels is 50% control level. If all the Plus Seven color adjust channels are at 50%, the colors are at the original colors.

Use the LED Settings menu to adjust fixture performance. From the LED Settings menu, you can set the following.
Output
•Curve

•Red Shift
White Point
Once any one of the seven individual color channels is altered from its neutral starting position, the settings for the original color point may no longer reflect the actual output of the fixture.
When using RGB, HSI, HSIC, or Studio profile for color selection, each fixture makes accommodations for the specific LEDs in its array and produces output that is consistent with other fixtures, whether or not they use LEDs from the same production batch.
Operating with Plus Seven enabled can override this calibration, and multiple fixtures may produce slightly different outputs when individual color channels are altered from their neutral starting points.

Output
Use Output to choose the optimal balance between two competing performance parameters, maximum brightness and output consistency, by adjusting:
How much the fixture limits the overall power to the LED array.
How the fixture reduces output as internal fixture components heat up during use or in high ambient temperatures.
The output options are as follows:
Regulated
Regulated is a moderately constrained power or brightness with consistent output under typical use. Power to the LEDs is separately regulated in order to maintain consistent brightness during the initial fixture warm-up period. This is recommended for most indoor applications.
Protected
Protected provides the most consistent output possible with the greatest potential for reduced overall brightness. This is best for outdoor use, changing environmental temperatures, and applications with high requirements for consistency in extreme operating conditions.
54 Desire Series v1.6.0 User Manual

Boost
Boost provides the brightest possible output, with least guarantee of consistency. This is best for applications with low duty cycles, loose brightness requirements, or where ambient temperature is low.

Step 3: With Output selected, press [] to toggle between the options.
Step 4: Press [] or [] to commit the option.
Note:
Curve
In all Output settings, if the fixture gets too warm and internal components approach unsafe operating temperatures, the total power to the LED array is gradually reduced and proportionate brightness levels between the various colors of LEDs are maintained as much as possible in order to preserve the overall color mix; however, some minor shifts in output may occur. Power continues to ramp down as much as necessary until internal fixture components return to a safe temperature. The fixture displays a warning message on the home screen indicating that power budgeting is in place, showing the percent of total power that is currently used.
If the fixture exceeds its maximum internal temperature, the fixture enters a cool­down state, stops responding to the control signal, and it shuts down most or all power to the LED array and displays its over-temperature status according to its setting for over-temperature warning.
The dimming curve, commonly called curve, is the correlation between the change in the value of the dimming control signal and the actual change in the fixture's brightness. Curve is also the extent to which the fixture lags in its response time to the control signal in order to facilitate smoothness in dimming.
Standard
Standard is a modest curve for intuitive brightness changes at both high and low ends of the dimming range. Moderate lag in response for good smoothness. It allows quick jumps in brightness. Suitable for most applications.
Intensity

Incandescent
Exaggerated curve mimics the response of tungsten on a conventional dimmer. Lag is quite pronounced and present even in full on or off bumps. Extreme smoothness with no instant changes. Best when fixtures must operate in sync with incandescent sources.

Output Freq
Output Frequency is the frequency in Hz at which the LED array pulses, or blinks, as a function of Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM). The frequency is adjustable in order to avoid visible flicker on video and film. When altering the frequency in order to reduce noticeable flicker on camera, often only a small change is required. The range is 920 to 1500 Hz in increments of 10. The default value is 1200 Hz.
For high speed exposure or rolling shutter cameras, use the High 25K mode. This increases the PWM to 25,000 Hz and will result in flicker-free operation in most circumstances. To access the High 25K, press the up arrow after reaching 1500 Hz in the Output Freq: field.
Changing the frequency from the default value can have a slight impact on the smoothness, or color-mix consistency, or both when dimming.

Rate is the execution of the Presets' Fade Times and Delay Times within the Sequence, relative to their settings within the actual Presets. The available Rate range is 2 to 500%. The default is 100%.
A Rate of 100% represents running the Sequence with timing exactly as specified within the Presets. A Rate above 100% represents running the Sequence with faster timing than specified within the Presets. For example, with a Rate of 200%, a Preset with a Fade Time of 6 seconds would actually be run within the Sequence in only 3 seconds.
A Rate below 100% represents running the Sequence with slower timing than specified within the Presets. For example, with a Rate of 50%, a Preset with a Fade Time of 6 seconds would actually be run within the Sequence in 12 seconds.

Finishing the Sequence
After each of the steps have been configured, set the End State. End state is what the fixture does once it completes the Sequence. Two end state options are available and both options repeat indefinitely until the Sequence is deactivated. To access the end state options, you must first program an additional and final step within the sequence using Preset 0. Preset 0 marks the end of the Sequence and opens the End State menu line. Preset 0 may only be used once within a Sequence. If you want the Sequence to repeat automatically, you may only define up to 23 steps with Presets 1 through 24, since the final step must be reserved for Preset 0.
Loop
Once the fixture completes the entire sequence, it immediately returns to the beginning and starts the sequence over again, in order.
Bounce
Once the fixture completes the entire sequence, it reverses the order of the presets and steps backward through them until reaching the starting step, at which point it starts the Sequence over again, in the original order.

Master/Slave Operation
When similar fixtures' DMX or data connections are linked together and there is no external DMX signal going to them, one fixture automatically controls all other fixtures in the chain when a Preset, Sequence, or Quick Color is initiated.
Master
Master is the one fixture that controls all fixtures in the daisy chain. By default, it is whichever fixture had its Preset, Sequence, or Quick Color selected or adjusted most recently. The Master fixture can only control Slave fixtures to produce identical output at the same time as itself. The Master fixture cannot control Slave fixtures to operate individually or to run chase-type or time-offset sequences.
Changes and edits to Presets or Sequences that are made to the Master fixture may be copied to the internal memory of all Slave fixtures for later use when these fixtures are disconnected from the data daisy chain.
When operating as the Master fixture, the fixture displays Master on its home screen.
