Dimming buttons allow you to dim any “memorized” or
“paused” light in 4 steps of 100%, 75%, 50% and 25%.
Dimming does not work for any light shows.
Dimming works best for memory buttons 1-7.
Dimming levels lower than 25% can be achieved by
first memorizing a color at 25% level. Then recalling
the color and dimming it again will result in lower
levels. Repeating this process can result in much
lower levels.

How to make a specific color:
It is best to start from a solid color that is close to the color you are
trying to get. For example, if you are trying to produce a specific shade
of sea green, it is best to start with solid green. If solid green is not one
of the colors in memory, one way would be to first press WHITE
button. Then, using COLOR DIALS press blue arrow up until blue
LEDs turn off. Press red arrow up until the red goes off. You should be
left with solid green. Now you can add blue color by pressing arrow up
to make the specific sea green you would like.
How to produce a color when watching a color show:
While watching any of the color shows you can press PAUSE button to
freeze the show on the color being displayed. A quick way to get to
some of the solid colors maybe to PAUSE the lights in the STEP mode.
Different tones of white light:
White light is presence of all primary colors. Otherwise, red green and
blue mixed together will make white light. However, what most
traditional lights produce is far from a “white” light. Depending on the
type of light, it could have a yellowish tone, bluish tone, or green tone.
Most people think of white light as yellowish white aka “warm white”.
A color similar to “warm white”, along with many other shades of
white, can be produced with CYRON HTW1000 controller. The
WHITE button produces a 100% red/green/blue combination.
Depending on the type of CYRON lights you use, this may produce a
shade of white that needs further adjustment. Generally, reducing green
and blue using COLOR DIALS will produce a warmer shade of white,
while reducing red will create a colder white. Play around with
COLOR DIALS and keep an open mind in what you may have known
as “white”.
