other hand, EFFECT Switch can control two relevant channel outputs at the same time.

For example, the EFFECT switch which controls channel 1 can simultaneously control

channel 9 under 16-CH mode. The function of each Channel button will be controlled by the

FLASH / LATCH selector: switch to “LATCH” position for LATCH function, and switch to

“FLASH” position for FLASH function.

following the audio signals. Audio sensitivity can also be controlled by the Audio adjuster —

you can get higher levels while adjusting towards “Max”, and get lower levels towards “Min”.

•Switch the “Chase mode selector” to ×1 mode, then the Chase speed will be controlled by

the relative SPEED adjuster, the fastest Chase speed can be within a few seconds.

•Switch the “Chase mode selector” to the 10min mode, then the Chase speed will be

controlled by the relative SPEED adjuster, the slowest Chase speed can come to the level of

10 minutes.

3.1.4 MANUAL / AUTO Mode

•Switch the “FLASH SPEED selector” to FLASH mode, the strobes will be controlled by the

FLASH SPEED adjuster — adjust towards “Max” to increase the speed level, and adjust

towards “Min” to decrease the speed level.

•Switch the “FLASH SPEED selector” to OFF mode, then the strobes will be disabled.

3.3 Usage of USB light

•When being to use the USB LIGHT, just connect the USB LIGHT to the USB socket on the

front panel of the controller, and then turn on the power switch of the USB LIGHT.
