Overview

The ColorSource Linear is an affordable LED fixture that uses the RGB-L (red,

green, blue, and lime) color system to provide a rich, bright light.

The fixture is available in three lengths:

• ColorSource Linear 1 (0.5 meter)

• ColorSource Linear 2 (1 meter)

• ColorSource Linear 4 (2 meter)

The ColorSource Linear is available in both original and Deep Blue variants.

The Deep Blue uses an array that offers richer, more saturated blues and

stronger magentas in exchange for the more jewel-toned blues like sky or

turquoise. For more information, see the ETC website at etcconnect.com.

Note:

Features described in this document require the latest

version of software. For information on updating fixture

software, see Updating the fixture software on page 14.

Accessories

You can use several half-meter optional accessories with ColorSource Linear

fixtures, including:

• Secondary lenses (horizontal, vertical, and round)

• Barn doors (7414K1020)

• Louver (7414K1019)

For information on installing secondary lenses, see

Installing secondary lenses

page 15

Accessories for Linear 2 and Linear 4

For the Linear 2 and Linear 4 fixtures, order one accessory for each 0.5 meter

segment (cell) of the fixture. For example, for a Linear 2 fixture, order two

barn door accessory kits to fit the full length of the fixture.

Spacers for secondary lenses are included with the fixture. Use these spacers

to hold the accessories in position when multiple lenses are used in the

Linear 2 and Linear 4 fixtures. The spacers are positioned between the

0.5 meter lenses.

Contact your local dealer for more information.

Installation

Mounting

The ColorSource Linear ships with a pair of floor trunnions for mounting.

You also have the option of using C-clamps with the trunnions to hang the

fixture. Attach the C-clamps to the holes in the trunnion feet (see figure on

page 5

The ColorSource Linear 1 has two additional mounting options. Contact your

local dealer for more information.

• Yoke with C-clamp (7414K1017)

• Double yoke with C-clamp for mounting two fixtures (7414K1018)

Note:

Ensure that the trunnions are installed with the feet

inward so that fixtures can be lined up end-to-end, if

needed.

ColorSource Linear v1.7

ColorSource Linear v1.7 Page 5 of 20 ETC

Safety cable

Two safety cable anchor points are

provided on the fixture housing.

The anchor points also include two

cutouts that can be used for cable

strain relief.

Connectors

•Power: Two powerCON®

connectors for power in and

thru

•Data (DMX512/RDM): Two

five-pin XLR connectors

two RJ45 connectors for data

in and thru

Conversion cables are available from ETC. Please contact your ETC customer

service representative and request part number W6538 for RJ45 to female

XLR or part number W6539 for RJ45 to male XLR.

Connector locations

•Linear 1: Power connectors on one side of the fixture and data

connectors on the other

•Linear 2 and Linear 4: Power and data connectors on each end (to

facilitate daisy-chaining)

Note:

This fixture is not Ethernet/data network compatible.

Note:

The ColorSource Linear is not self terminating. You must

terminate the last fixture in line with a 120 Ohm resistor.

XLR terminators are not available from ETC.

To purchase an RJ45 terminator, please contact ETC

customer service and request part number N4086.

User interface

The user interface allows you to set the start

address of the fixture, access the stand-alone

presets and sequences, set the DMX control

mode, and set the Grouping mode (Linear 2 and

Linear 4 fixtures only).

• After 5 seconds of inactivity when DMX is

present, the display goes dark.

• The DMX address will blink when no DMX

is present and a preset or sequence is not

active. The inactivity time-out is disabled

while in a data loss state.

Mode button

Pressing the Mode button activates the Presets/Sequences menu; the last

active preset or sequence plays automatically. Pressing the Mode button a

second time deactivates the selected preset or sequence. The display will

revert to show the DMX start address.

• If DMX data is present, the current preset or sequence plays in the

background and DMX data continues to take priority.

• If DMX data is lost and a preset is active in the background, the last

selected preset or sequence automatically plays.

Setting the DMX address

1: Press any button to wake the display. The display shows the DMX

address.

2: Use the Up and Down buttons to select the DMX address for the

fixture.

You can also use RDM for DMX addressing. See

Using RDM

page 17

Changing the DMX control mode

You can set the DMX control mode for the fixture to one of four available

mode options.

1: Press any button to wake the display. The display shows the DMX

address.

2: Press and hold the Mode button for 3 seconds. The display shows the

current DMX control mode.

3: Press the Up and Down buttons to change the DMX control mode.

•: 5-channel mode (intensity, red, green, blue, and strobe). This

is the default mode.

•: Direct emitter control (intensity, red, green, blue, indigo,

lime, and strobe).

•: 1-channel mode controls the intensity of preset 1 (defaults to

3200K White).

•: RGB mode (red, green, and blue).

4: Press the Mode button to confirm your selection.

The display will automatically return to the DMX address after 10 seconds of

inactivity, and edits to the DMX control mode will not be saved. This cancels

unsaved changes.

ETC Installation Guide

ColorSource Linear v1.7

ColorSource Linear v1.7 Page 9 of 20 ETC

Setting the Grouping mode

The ColorSource Linear 2 and the

ColorSource Linear 4 fixtures have

two Grouping modes:

•Group: Entire array functions as

a single fixture.

•Cell: Each 0.5 m segment (or

“cell”) of the array functions as

a distinct fixture with a

separate DMX start address.

To set the Grouping mode, press the

Grouping button until the LED

indicator for the chosen mode

illuminates.

In Cell mode, each cell is assigned a DMX address based on the DMX address

of the fixture (see

Setting the DMX address

page 8

) and the current DMX

control mode (see

Changing the DMX control mode

page 8

). For example,

if you set the DMX address on the fixture to 100, set the DMX mode to

5-channel, and set the Grouping mode to Cell, the starting DMX address of

the first cell will be 100 and the starting DMX address of the second cell will

be 105.

DMX control channels

Linear 1 and Linear 2/Linear 4 in Group mode

*Original ColorSource Linear fixture uses blue in channel 4; Deep Blue fixture

uses indigo in channel 4.

**Use DMX values of 0 or 255 for no strobe. Use values of 1–254 to increase

the strobe rate from 1 per second up to 33 per second.
