Curve
Curve is the correlation between the change in the value of the dimming control signal and
the actual change in the fixture's brightness. Curve is also the extent to which the fixture
lags in its response time to the control signal in order to facilitate smoothness in dimming.
Standard
Standard is a modest curve for intuitive brightness changes at both high and low ends of
the dimming range. Moderate lag in response for good smoothness. It allows quick jumps
in brightness. Suitable for most applications.
Incandescent
Exaggerated curve mimics the response of tungsten on a conventional dimmer. Lag is quite
pronounced and present even in full on or off bumps. Extreme smoothness with no instant
changes. Best when fixtures must operate in sync with incandescent sources.
Linear
Linear has no curve. Brightness levels correlate exactly with the value of the dimming
control signal. Moderate lag in response for good dimming smoothness. Linear allows quick
jumps in brightness. It is best for studio lighting and applications with static scenes or looks.
Quick
Quick uses the standard dimming curve but with no lag or smoothing. All changes are
instant and correlated exactly with the control input signal. Quick is best for extreme high
impact and video-based control.
