Desire Series v1.6.0 User Manual

Color Mixes

The following table shows the color mixes for each fixture type.

HSI (Hue Saturation Intensity) and HSIC (Hue, Saturation, Intensity, Color

Temperature (White Point))

The HSI profile uses 4 channels of DMX input, corresponding to 16-bit hue (two channels:

coarse and fine), saturation, and intensity. The HSI profile makes Desire fixtures

compatible with conventional HSI console profiles while capitalizing on fixtures' expanded

color capabilities. Channel 5 is for Strobe, when enabled. Also see

Color Matching, page

34

.

HSIC is similar to HSI, except that it uses an additional 6th channel to control the color

temperature of the white point. White point is the color temperature of the white-light output

when saturation is at zero. The Red Shift function is automatically disabled in the HSIC

profile. The white point address of the D60 occupies a different address. For information

about the D60 DMX footprint, refer to

D60 (Vivid, Lustr+, Fire, Ice, Studio HD), page 37

.

RGB

Effectively addresses all 7 colors via three channels of control. The RGB profile produces

medium-quality color crossfades. It makes the Desire fixtures compatible with conventional

RGB console profiles while maintaining enhanced color production from the fixture. Also

N o t e :

The HSI profile is optimized for maximum brightness at all settings.
At some settings, small changes in hue and saturation may produce unexpected

jumps in brightness.
Shifts in brightness may be perceived during fades across hue, saturation, or both

in cues and presets.
