Troubleshooting

Unit does not power on.

Ensure the battery is charged. If using mains power, check the power cable connection and the power source. Verify the power switch is in the 'on' position.

No color output or incorrect colors.

Check DMX settings if applicable, ensuring the correct channel mode and address are set. If using auto/sound modes, verify they are selected correctly. Ensure LEDs are not obstructed.

Sound-activated mode not responding to music.

Increase the sensitivity setting via the onboard controls or DMX interface. Ensure the sound sensor is not blocked and the music volume is sufficient.

Short battery life.

Battery life is dependent on brightness and mode usage. Reduce brightness levels or use less power-intensive modes. Ensure the battery is fully charged before use. Battery performance may degrade over time.

DMX control is erratic or unresponsive.

Verify DMX cable connections are secure and daisy-chained correctly. Ensure all fixtures are set to the same DMX mode and have unique starting addresses if required. Check for faulty DMX cables.
