Important Notice:
The use of an opto-splitter for DMX signal distri ution is highly recommended when several fixture units (Color Punch, Color
Split, Color Force and Color Charge) are not plugged into the same power source.
2.3 Mounting
The Color Charge is designed primarily for floor mounting with an optional provision for truss mounting at the ottom of the
chassis. For truss mounting, we recommend the use of a ½"-13UNC x ¾" long olt to avoid damage.
Note: Secure the fixture with a safety ond. A provision for a fixing hold is uilt into the chassis.
2.4 Power Switch
The Color Charge is equipped with an ON/OFF switch located at the side of the unit.
2.5 Battery
The Color Charge is charged through the male IEC connector. Charging a fully discharged Color Charge will take around 4
hours to complete (98-100%). The LCD display will light up when the unit is plugged into a power source. The display will
show the attery capacity in percentage.
Battery voltage, current and temperature can e monitored through the ‘Information’ menu. In this menu, a fully charged
attery will show voltage (BatV) – 14.1 - 14.9V, current (BatI) – 0.0A, and attery temperature (BatT) 23ºC - 25ºC not
charging / 23ºC - 40ºC when charging.
The Color Charge wireless reception/transmission and light output will shut down when attery life is at 2%.
2.6 Control
The Color Charge can operate as a stand-alone unit or controlled remotely wired or wireless via ANSI E1.11 USITT DMX 512-

XLR5 ca le, which ena les wired DMX control.
Control Options:
3 channel HSI (Hue, Saturation and Intensity) provides 2 colour channels for hue and saturation and a separate intensity
channel. A separate defina le intensity channel is particularly useful when creating intensity chases or when the grand
master is used. The hue channel has 255 different colours availa le and the saturation channel specifies the saturation level
of that colour. The saturation channel is fully saturated at full. White is achieved with the intensity channel to full and the
saturation channel at zero.
3 channel RGB (Red, Green, Blue with *Magic Am er) is the more traditional way of controlling colour changing LED fixtures.
Each of the three control channels directly affects the intensity of the corresponding LED. Colour is mixed y adjusting the
levels of the three primary colours. White is achieved with all channels at full including *Magic Am er.
3 channel RGB(A) + 1 intensity channel (Red, Green, Blue with *Magic Am er and Intensity) gives 3 control channels
directly affecting the intensity of the corresponding LED – Red, Green, Blue with *Magic Am er, and 1 channel affecting the
intensity of all RGB(A) channels.
4 channel RGBA (Red, Green, Blue and Am er) gives 4 control channels directly affecting the intensity of the corresponding
LED – Red, Green, Blue and Am er. Colour is mixed y adjusting the levels of each of the four colours. White is achieved
with all channels at full.
