Dimming Curve

The following Dimming Curves are available: Linear, Logarithmic, S-Curve and Exponential.

Output Settings

2) Blackbody: meets the blackbody luminescence standard (Duv is controlled near the blackbody trajectory line)

Fan Mode

In the System Settings Fan Mode, rotate the Select Wheel and press to choose between Smart, High, Medium and Silent Fan Mode.

The options for the Fan are:

1) Smart: able to work in -20°C/-4ºF through 45°C/113ºF environment, the lamp will automatically adjust the fan speed according to different ambient temperatures.

2) Max: able to work in -20°C/-4ºF through 45°C/113ºF environment, fan will maintain its highest speed. In High-Speed Mode, the fan uses the Max Fan setting.

3) Medium: Capable of working in -20°C/-4ºF through 35°C/95ºF environments, the fan uses a medium speed. Medium is the slowest speed possible for Maximum Output.

4) Silent: When working in an environment of -20ºC/-4ºF through 45ºC/113ºF, the fan stays OFF, but the output of the lamp is limited to 45W. See the STORM 400x DMX Chart for details.

To control the fan over DMX, select a DMX Control Profile. The fixture switches to DMX fan control automatically. See What do all the Fan Modes do? for details on each mode.

Studio Mode

When Studio Mode is enabled (ON), the fixture will power on when connected to live power. When Studio Mode is disabled (OFF), press the power button to power on or power off the fixture. If DMX data is present when power is applied, the fixture turns on even with Studio Mode OFF.

Screensaver

Select the Screensaver time and display behavior.

Language

Select between English or Chinese and press the Select Wheel to confirm.

Product Information

The Firmware Version, SN, Sidus BT ID, Hardware Version and Operating status, can all be checked in the Product Info interface.

1) Firmware Version: Display the Firmware Version of the Control Box and attached Lamp Head.

2) SN: Serial Number.

3) Sidus BT ID.

4) Hardware Version: Display the hardware versions of the Control Box and attached Lamp Head.

5) Operating status: Display the Temperature, Control Box and attached Lamp Head Run Time, and any Error Code.

Errors are divided into two categories: a. Serious error: When a serious error occurs, the fixture cannot be used and will be locked for protection. Please respond to the error according to the fault prompt. b. General error: When a general error occurs, the fixture is still available for use; enter the Product Info Interface to view the error details.

After an over-temperature shutdown, the fixture does not turn back on by itself once it cools. Press the power button on the Control Box to power it back on. Fan errors (EC.010 and EH.010) are general errors and clear after a power cycle.

Firmware Information

Upgrade the firmware by inserting a USB flash drive with the latest firmware on its root drive into the USB-A port of the Control Box . The current firmware version is also listed in this interface. Firmware updates must be performed with a USB flash drive. Remember to attach the Lamp Head to ensure that both the Control Box and Lamp Head are updated with new firmware. See Update Firmware via a USB Flash Drive.

Batch firmware upgrade: Enabled when Lead/Follow Mode is turned on; batch upgrade requires inserting a USB flash drive with the latest firmware into the Leader fixture.

Factory Reset

To Factory Reset your fixture, first select if the fixture should have the CRMX and the Sidus BT Settings reset. Also select the default language, then select “YES”. Select "NO" to cancel.

Choose to Reset CRMX, Reset Sidus BT, Default Language.

If the fixture is a CRMX transmitter, a factory reset disconnects any linked RX devices and returns it to RX mode. In a Lead/Follow setup, a Follower uses the same reset logic as the Leader.

Hold the Menu button for 5 seconds to initiate the Factory Reset Shortcut.
