iCOLOR® MODULE FX
FACT SHEET
Color Kinetics delivers iColor® Module FX -- a new lighting medium in the form of a 6" (15.2 cm) square modular unit for wide-ranging designs that call for singularly controllable points of light.
iColor Module FX incorporates 9 or 36 tri-color LED nodes, mounted on a printed circuit board, and driven by Color Kinetics' custom Chromasic™ microchip. Each LED node within iColor Module FX is individually controllable, whether applied across one unit or a large-scale, multi-unit installation. As a result, designers have a creatively flexible, extensible medium with which to bring complex lighting designs to life, including scrolling text and images, video and animations.
iColor Module FX features simple through holes and board-to-board connectors for versatile mounting options -- whether the units are positioned apart or conjoined to form grids and customized shapes. Applications range from simple, color changing effects to more intricate designs and animations that require the refined level of detail made possible by individually controlled LED nodes.
iColor Module FX is compatible with most Color Kinetics controllers and third-party DMX controllers. To realize its full potential for sophisticated effects, iColor Module FX is optimally controlled by Light System Manager 1.6 - Color Kinetics' next-generation, Ethernet-based control system. The integrated software/hardware solution facilitates the authoring, management and control of show effects that span multiple DMX universes, including animations imported from graphical design packages like Macromedia Flash. The newly enhanced software component of version 1.6 features the following advantages:
- Importing Enhancements: Ability to import a still image
- Image Scroll: Scroll a still image up, down, left, right, diagonally
- Ethernet Keypad Support: Ability to connect multiple keypads to one installation
- Orientation Options: Rotate lights within a map
- DMX Triggering: Supports third-party hardware for DMX triggering
- New Graphical User Interface: Simplifies triggering, scheduling and playback parameters
- iColor Module FX Support: Map wizard to simplify the map layout
Used with iColor Module FX, Light System Manager 1.6 enables complex designs and installations with minimized time, resources and expense. Current Light System Manager users can upgrade to version 1.6 by contacting software@colorkinetics.com.
