1. Product overview

The Chroma-Q Color Force LED batten range is a brute of a light. At up to 12,000 hot lumens output (Color Force 72); the super bright fixture easily washes up to 8m / 26 foot. In addition, the advanced colour mixing and control management technologies together give you a radically increased colour palette, a high CRI of 92 and theatrical grade dimming, all in the same fixture.

Slide-in "Cyc Light" and "Border Light" optical accessories are available to adjust the light output to suit a wide range of applications.

The Chroma-Q Color Force lighting fixture is designed specifically for professional indoor entertainment lighting. The fixture can be wall or floor mounted with the adjustable quick-release end-plate fixing system. For hung bar or truss mounting, additional bar clamp hardware is required.

The Color Force features built-in power supplies and can operate as a stand-alone unit or be remotely controlled through ANSI

E1.11 USITT DMX 512-A protocol.

The Color Force is available in two lengths, the Color Force 72 model which features a total of 288 high powered LEDs (12 x

1000 lumen RGBA cells) and the Color Force 48 model which features a total of 192 high powered LED’s (8 x 1000 lumen RGBA cells).

The control options incorporate a choice of HSI (Hue, Saturation and Intensity), RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Amber), RGB (Red,

Green, Blue, with *Magic Amber), RGBI (Red, Green, Blue with *Magic Amber and Intensity) control modes. The Color Force also features a dynamic Variable Effects Engine integrated in the software, which gives the lighting designer full control over colour and effects combinations.

The product's robust anodised aluminum extruded construction houses a discreet cable management system. Additional protection is built around the lenses for a truly road proof fixture.

2. Operation

2.1 Unpacking the units

The Color Force package includes 1 unit Color Force fixture, power connector (EU)/power cord (US) and a Quick Start Guide. We recommend that you keep the original packaging in case the item needs to be returned.

2.2 Cabling

The Color Force utilises PowerCon connectors for power input and through. The DMX control data input and through connections from an external control console are via two XLR 5-pin connectors. The chassis are ground bonded.

Note: To avoid overloading the input cable, the maximum length of Color Force fixtures for a single power cable run is 3.6m (12') at 110V or 7.2m (24') at 220V.

The use of an opto-splitter for DMX signal distribution is highly recommended when several fixture units are not plugged into the same power source.

2.3 Mounting

The Color Force 48 & 72 fixtures are equipped with built-in mounting brackets for floor, wall and truss mounting applications. The mounting brackets feature a pair of quick release levers for easy tilt adjustment.

Note: Secure the fixture with a safety bond. Provision for a fixing hold is built into the brackets.

2.4 Orientation

The Color Force 48 & 72 fixtures are built with near/far lenses that optimize the beam spread when used on a wall or cyclorama.

The side with near-field lenses is indicated by the narrow edge border, which should be adjacent to the wall or cyclorama. The side with far-field lenses is indicated by the wider edge border, which should be facing away from the wall or cyclorama.

The hue channel has 255 different colours available 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.

Each of the three control channels directly affects the intensity of the corresponding LED. Colour is mixed by adjusting the levels of the three primary colours. White is achieved with all channels at full including Magic Amber.

2.8 Thermal Performance

The Color Force 48 & 72 fixtures feature 2 internal fans that drive the internal cooling system.

If the internal temperature of the Color Force exceeds 75ºC the output of the fixture is reduced for automatic protection. This happens on rare and extreme conditions when ambient temperature is over 35ºC or the internal fans are blocked or damaged.

The airflow to and from the fan must not be constricted to maintain the maximum operating capacity of the Color Force.

3. Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting is a process of elimination. First, rule out the other field factors (i.e. bad connections, faulty cables and power supplies). For technical support and/or parts, please contact your selling dealer or the offices listed in this manual.

Symptom

Fixture does not respond to

DMX control.

Noise from fixture unit.

Low LED output.

Possible Cause

Set to wrong or different DMX address.

Bad cable connecting DMX control and fixture.

Bad in/through connection between adjacent fixtures.

Fan malfunction.

Internal temperature is over the limit.

Fan is not working.

Solution

Check DMX address and Mode settings.

Check/replace DMX run from the console.

Check fan.

Check “Fan Control” mode.

Check fan.

Check for airflow - to and from the internal fan.

Check area ventilation.

5. Maintenance

With care, the Color Force will require little maintenance. However, as the unit is likely to be used in a stage environment we recommend periodical internal inspection and cleaning of any resulting dust and cracked oil residue.

Do not spray liquids on the front or rear panel. If the front enclosure requires cleaning, wipe with a mild detergent on a damp cloth.
