Effect Mode Options Descriptions

Color Cycle

Object Effect

Global Effect

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 14

The image’s color components cycle through RGB, black, and white. When no Red Green or Blue is added, image fades from full white, to normal image, to black. When RGB/CMY is added the image fades from the RGB value, to the image with color added.

Modifier 1: Increases red color component from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum red saturation.

Modifier 2: Increases green color component from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum green saturation.

Modifier 3: Increases blue color component from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum blue saturation.

Color DeConverge

Object Effect

Global Effect

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 39

This effect option separates the different color components of an image and offsets them from the original image position.

Modifier 1: Moves the image’s red component up from 0= no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum distance from original position.

Modifier 2: Moves the image’s green component down and right from 0= no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum adjustment.

Modifier 3: Moves the image’s blue component down and left from 0 = no adjustment to 255 (100%) = maximum blue saturation.

Colorize Gray Scale

Object Effect

Global Effect

Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 44

This option maps a selected pixel intensity to a selected color scheme. A variety of color schemes simulate effects like thermography. This is especially effective effect when applied to input from the internal camera.

Modifier 1: Selects from color schemes along a range of values from 0 – 255.

Modifier 2: Sets the zero point of the color intensity level from 0 = no intensity to 255 (100%) = maximum intensity.

Modifier 3: Fades from original color scheme to new color scheme using selected intensity.
