If you wish to update only processors with new version of software, check the “Incremental Update box“. Avoid interrupting the process. Update status is being displayed in the "Info Box" window. When the update is nished, the line with the text “Fixture is successfully updated“ will appear in this window. In case upload process is interrupted (e.g. power loss), the xture stays in “Updating mode” and you will have to repeat the software update again.
Another way, how to update software in the xtures (especially large installation of xtures) is to use the ROBE Uploader. It is a software for automatized software update of Robe xtures. It takes advantage of RDM support). For more information please see https://www.robe.cz/robe-uploader/.
6. RDM
This xture supports RDM operation. RDM (Remote Device Management) is a bi-directional communications protocol for use in DMX512 control systems, it is the new open standard for DMX512 device conguration and status monitoring. The RDM protocol allows data packets to be inserted into a DMX512 data stream without adversely a󰀨ecting existing non-RDM equipment. By using a special „Start Code,“ and by complying with the timing specications for DMX512, the RDM protocol allows a console or dedicated RDM controller to send commands to and receive messages from specic moving lights. RDM allows explicit commands to be sent to a device and responses to be received from it. The list of commands for the iParfect 150 RGBA (iParfect 150 FW RGBA) is the following.

9. Maintenance and cleaning
Disconnect from the mains before starting any
cleaning or service work.
It is absolutely essential that the xture front transparent glass is kept clean and dust, dirt and smoke-uid res­idues must not build up on the glass. Otherwise, the xture‘s light-output will be signicantly reduced. Regular cleaning will ensure the maximum light otput. A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning uid is recommended, under no circumstances should solvents be used!
More complicated maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized distributors.
