DynColor™ 300-BL (Part Number: HCD-00300-000000-BL) is compatible with UniQ™ A144T and A72T RGB Border Lights.
Based on high performance microprocessor technology, supporting standard DMX512 protocol, it is available for cross-platform operation on DMX console or DMX simulation software (our DMX Controllers support most DMX consoles and DMX simulation software, A TEST-OPERATION IS HIGHLY RECOMMANDED.) With this enhanced tool, you can manage and design color changing patterns and changing speeds from across platforms.
With over 30 preprogrammed color changing patterns, including gradual changing, screening and jumping. As a powerful color managing controller, it will enable you to choose the desired pattern and according speed to manage the RGB lighting fixtures.
The LCD monitor on the controller offers an easy and visible managing method; the mounting bracket will enable the operator to easily fix the controller onto any place.
This guide contains important information about installing and operating your new DynColor™ 300-BL safely and accurately.

6) How to set the DMX controller under DMX512 mode?
Under DMX512 mode, the DMX controller occupies 4 channels/addresses.
The first channel/address is for mode selection; the second channel/address is for speed selection and also the red color percentage control; the third channel/address is for green color percentage control and the fourth channel/address is for blue color percentage control.
Please follow the below steps to set up your DMX controller:
① Set DMX controller to DMX512 MODE;
② Set DMX channel/address for the DMX controller: if the DMX channel/address is set to 13, the controller will occupy channel/address 13, 14, 15 & 16; if the DMX channel/address is set to 128, the controller will occupy channel/address 128, 129, 130 & 131;
③ Manage the first channel/address on the DMX console, like 13 or 128, to select the preferred pattern to use;
④ Manage the second channel/address on the DMX console, like 14 or 129, to set the changing speed and red color percentage;
⑤ Manage the third channel/address on the DMX console, like 15 or 130, to set the green color percentage;
⑥ Manage the fourth channel/address on the DMX console, like 16 or 131, to set the blue color percentage.
