1. DMX control modes overview

The following DMX control modes are available in the impression FR10 Bar.

DMX Mode 1: Normal is the default
control mode. It provides 16-bit control of
tilt and dimming, shutter effects, a
Control/Settings channel that lets you
configure the fixture remotely via DMX,
color temperature control, a virtual color
wheel (color presets) and RGBW color
mixing.

It also features a powerful effects engine
with static and dynamic pixel intensity
and pixel zoom angle effects. The
variable effect parameters include
Crossfading (adjusts fading from one step
to the next in an effect) and Transition
(adjusts fading from one effect to the
next).

The Pattern select channels let you select
from 50 pixel intensity and 50 pixel zoom
patterns. At the end of each Pattern
select channel there is a Random Pattern
function and a Random Pixel function:

• Random Pattern auto-selects patterns
at random. After 10 cycles through all
the steps in one pattern, the fixture
changes to the next pattern.

• Random Pixel selects pixels at random
and snaps from one pixel to the next.

• Selecting a static pattern step
(values 0 – 119) on the Pattern
position/movement channel gives a
move to a new random pixel.

• Selecting a dynamic movement
(values 128 – 255) on the Pattern
position/ movement channel give
continuous random pixel moves.

• Selecting a speed on the Pixel
Pattern FX Crossfading channel lets
you change from snap to smooth
crossfading.

DMX Mode 2: Multi-Layer provides 16-bit
control of tilt and dimming, shutter
effects, a Control/Settings channel that
lets you configure the fixture remotely via
DMX, color temperature control, a virtual
color wheel (color presets) and RGBW
color mixing.

It also features a powerful effects engine
with static and dynamic pixel intensity
and pixel zoom angle effects. The
variable effect parameters include
Crossfading (adjusts fading from one step
in an effect to the next step) and
Transition (adjusts fading from one effect
to the next effect).

Besides the base layer (Layer 1)
described above, DMX Mode 2 features
two additional layers that can be
superimposed onto the base layer:

• Layer 2, the middle layer, appears
over the base layer.

• Layer 3, the top layer, appears over
the base layer and over Layer 2.

Each of these two additional layers offers
a 16-bit layer master (the visibility of the
layer over the lower layers from 0% –
100%), shutter effects, RGBW control and
the same range of pixel intensity FX as in
DMX Mode 1.
