4.4 RC Receiver
To start this mode, choose RC RECEIVER in the top navigation, confirm with
Enter.
By using the RC Receiver mode, third-party RGB lamps can be integrated in a light setup
that is not controlled by Wireless DMX but by the ARC2 remote control.
Up to 32 externally connected RGB fixtures can be controlled individually. The ART3 has to
be setup to the number of connected pixels, to replay programs correctly. This is done using
the AUTO PIXELS parameter.
Apart from Auto Pixels a range of values can be set to control the connected third-party
lamps directly from the ART3 without the need for an ARC2 remote control:
Auto Pixels Sets the number of pixels that replay programs. Setting the value to
ten means that a program will stretch over ten lamps.
Local Group Assigns the lamps to one of the four groups for easy addressing.
Local Set Number Assigns the lamps to one of 256 possible sets for easy addressing.
Program Plays one of 20 pre-defined programs that can be customized with
colors, intensity, power scheme, speed, fade, directions, etc.
Intensity Sets the brightness of the lamps.
Power Scheme Three different power schemes can be set to optimize the lamp for
high-brightness, maximum runtime or normal playback.
Speed Sets the speed with which a program is played.
Fade Sets the fading transitions between between different colors from hard
transitions to smooth transitions.
Direction Sets the direction of a program and whether it loops continuously or is
played only once.

rate.
