different color combinations. The color displayed will depend on the DMX value on channel 3 (as it is

being sent by the controller) as follows:

0-10 White

11-20 Red

21-30 Purple

241-255 “whatever color”

So, if the lighting fixture receives a DMX value of 25 for Channel 3, it will display the Purple color. If that

DMX value changes to 15, it will automatically change to Red, and so on.

Luckily for us, the Lucid software (and most controllers) includes profiles for these lighting fixtures.

These profiles contain all the DMX values and channel information required to have full control of the

lighting fixture. Typically, all you will need to do is set the DMX addresses right, and the controller will

make everything else easy (some controllers are easier to use and learn than others, but that is the

overall idea).

When a lighting fixture is manufactured, a DMX chart is provided in the user’s manual. This DMX chart

contains all the information that controller manufacturers need to create these profiles. Most controllers

include only the most popular fixtures in their particular market. We can proudly say that Lucid (and

our OEM partners) are the only controllers with over 2,000 different profiles from manufacturers from all

around the world, so no matter where you purchased your lighting equipment, chances are we will have

profiles for it, which will allow you to control them without a problem.
