password. A universal mobile phone holder (3.5/6.5in), rotatable over 360°, supplied with the Astro
and clamped on one of the side bars, allows the installation of a mobile device, either IOS or
Android to take control of the followspot.
If the Astro was purchased complete with the LDR controller A20702074 (available as an optional
accessory) Smartphone Honor 75 Black, pre-loaded with the Android Art-Net Controller app,
relevant settings and libraries, it is ready to be operated.
In case you are using your own mobile device, please refer to chapter 12 and 13 of this manual for
all the necessary steps needed to set up the control system.
Select the LED control mode between Wi-Fi (factory setting – if you want to control the colour
mixing through a mobile device), DMX and manual. To change the control mode press once the
rotary selector until an arrow appears on the menu. Turn the selector to the right or the left to
select the desired mode of operation and press to confirm your selection.
