Color Mixing

The SHOWGUN

®

fixture has two color mixing systems. A CMY system that is comprised of a

dichroic color mixing system for output from the Output Lens and a RGB color mixing system that
is comprised of 36 RGB Modules in the LED Tracking system.

CMY Color

The CMY color mixing system creates and infinite range of color by moving pairs of Cyan, Magenta
and Yellow flags. Several color selection modes are available in either full speed (controller
crossfading the wheel positions), or MSpeed (MSpeed control of the wheel motor). For more
information on MSpeed, see MSpeed (Motor Speed) on page 38.

The Color Function you choose will effect which parameter values are available for each individual
color (Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow). The following table describes the Color Functions available on
the SHOWGUN fixture.
