Overview

The ColorSource PAR is an affordable LED wash fixture that uses the RGB-L

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

This fixture 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.

CAUTION:

• Risk of eye injury. Do not stare directly into the light.

• Do not operate in proximity to flammable materials.

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 9.

Setting presets and sequences

There are twelve factory-configured presets followed by five factory-

configured sequences built into the fixture. From the Preset/Sequence menu,

press the Up and Down buttons to scroll through the list. The sequence or

preset plays immediately upon selection. All presets and sequences can be re-

recorded through an RDM device.

Re-recording a preset

1: Using DMX or RDM, set the desired RGB levels.

2: Press the Mode button to access the Preset/Sequence menu.

3: Using the Up and Down buttons, navigate to the preset number that

you want to re-record.

4: Hold the Mode button for 3 seconds to confirm the preset selection.

The user interface will show a 3-second countdown. The preset

number blinks once to confirm that the preset has been recorded.

It is possible to activate a known preset or sequence from a connected fixture

when DMX is not present. If a connected fixture activates a preset or

sequence that is not recognized by the PAR, the PAR will hold its last look.

When DMX is restored, the DMX takes priority.

Note:

When the fixture is in Direct mode (



) or 1-channel

mode (



), you cannot re-record presets.

When you re-record presets with the fixture in RGB

mode (



), the intensity is set to full and the strobe is

turned off.

See Changing the DMX control mode on page 8.

Locking the user interface

After you have set up the fixture, you can lock the user interface to prevent

additional changes.

Updating the fixture software

ETC recommends using UpdaterAtor software to manage software updates.

For more information on UpdaterAtor, see the

UpdaterAtor Software Quick

Guide

which you can download for free from etcconnect.com.

When you add a ColorSource fixture running a newer software version or

update a ColorSource fixture to a newer software version using UpdaterAtor,

you can use that fixture to push the newer software version to all connected

ColorSource fixtures.

You can push newer software versions from a connected fixture only on

ColorSource fixtures running software v1.3.0 or newer. Use UpdaterAtor to

update individual fixtures running versions older than v1.3.0.

1: Remove power and DMX from the master fixture that is running the

software version that you want to push to other fixtures.

2: Hold the Up and Down buttons simultaneously while restoring power.

3: The display will show  to indicate the update mode is

selected.

4: Press the Mode button to start the update process.

• The display will alternate between  and the percentage

complete while updating.

• The master fixture will reboot once the update is complete.

Restoring factory defaults

Hold all three buttons (Mode, Up, and Down) simultaneously for 5 seconds.

The DMX start address will blink once to confirm that defaults have been

restored.

Error codes

There are three error codes that may be shown on the user interface.

•: Screen toggles between and to indicate a problem

with the color calibration. The fixture will need to be returned to the

ETC factory; contact your local dealer to set up a repair.

•: Screen toggles between and to indicate that the

fixture has gone into over-temperature protection mode to avoid

damaging the fixture. Once the fixture has self-cooled, the error will

automatically clear.

•: Screen toggles between and to indicate that the

upgraded fixtures have a software issue. Reload software to clear the

error. If the error persists, contact ETC.
