5.1 Color mixing

The Sparx10 features a color wheel emulation, main RGBW, pattern RGBW, glow RGBW and
CTC channel. The color wheel emulation has priority. Only if the color wheel emulation is set to
DMX value 000-001 it is possible to operate the RGBW channels. The glow RGBW is used for
glow effects and can overlay the other colors. The CTC channel can be combined with both the
RGBW channels and the color wheel emulation. If the effect channels 9-13 are in use, the main
RGBW is used as backround color and the pattern RGBW is used as forground color (pattern
color). If color wheel emulation is active (DMX value > 001) the main RGBW is still used as back-
round color but the the effects ( foreground - pattern) are working with the color wheel emulation.
Pattern RGBW has no function in this juncture.

5.2 Control channel

The control channel (channel 5) offers additional control over the RGB-channels.
DMX 000-007: no white balance active.
DMX 008-015: basic adjustment on the RGB channels. So it's possible to have always the same
white from different production series (factory adjustment). Marginal reduced intensity of the
RGBW strings.
DMX 016-023: White balance, reduced intensity in blue, possible reduction in intensity of green
and red. If fixtures are set to this DMX value the white of color wheel emulation (color 0) and RGB
color mixing is the same.
DMX 024-031: White balance same to DMX 016-023, plus the RGBW curves are working in line-
ar mode so it is possible to use the color picker function of various lighting control desks.
These areas are repeated 5 times to adapt the response of the Sparx10 to lighting controls from
different manufacturers. The response runs from fast (mode 1) to slow (mode 5).

5.3 User notes

Control channel 5
Some lighting desks have a delay during DMX refreshing and DMX values get missed during a
fade out or using the fader. That means the Sparx10 with his fast reaction time rate this happen
as a shutter and shows flickering in the beam. To avoid this you can select 5 different operating
modes. Depending on the mode, the reaction time of the Sparx10 gets lower.
