100R contain state of the art,
high brightness, high efficiency Red, Green and Blue LEDs. These three
primary colours can be mixed together to make an incredible palette of
16.7 million colours.
They are IP66 rated fixtures and therefore suitable for outdoor or indoor
use. They are powered directly from 85-277 Volts AC and have full remote
DMX control of RGB levels or can function in Stand Alone Mode.
Numerous chases and sequences are built in, enabling superb lighting
effects without complicated programming.
These impressive fixtures are ideal for the architectural and entertainment
markets to give an unlimited colour palette that can enhance building
facades, water features and focal displays or to providing stunning
dynamic colour in shows, conferences, concerts and themed
environments.

Flood66/100R have a thermal
management system. This progressively reduces the power to the LEDs if
the internal temperature exceeds limits set by the software.
Excess temperature will occur if the units are exposed to high ambient
temperatures or inadvertently covered. It is therefore important for
maximum performance that they have good ventilation on all sides.

(MAIN micro .0 09-09-05 or later + UIM micro 1.0 07-03-05 or later) has many exciting features.
• Two built in Chases – allowing superimposition of effects and crossfading between chases. Chase 1 and 2 use the same
table of 31 chases but there are differences to give you more choice - Chase 1 uses the ALL Red, Green and Blue Channels, 1, 2
& 3, to change the colour of some chases (see table) while Chase 2 stays white and uses them to give a background colour.
The chases have a very wide range of speeds.
• 9 operating modes: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 10, 36, 2 and 6 Channel Modes.
• A Master Dimmer Channel (Ch.10) for the 36 individual RGB channels, which may become a Global Grand Master for the All
R/G/B and Chases Levels too.
• Input Smoothing may be disabled for fast display of video graphics and video frame rate capability.
• Please see the Channel Assignments Table
Channel Assignments TableChannel Assignments Table
Channel Assignments Table page for details of the Operating Modes and how to select them, Channel
Listings, and further information.
