Before You Begin The CORE ColourPoint fixture is a battery-powered wireless up-lighter capable of providing portable and instant architectural and feature lighting anywhere. With high-powered red, green, blue and white LEDs the fixture is capable of producing any colour or shade of white using combinations of those LEDs. Ideal for illuminating buildings in colour, both indoors and outdoors, the fixture is powerful enough to light buildings of 3 or 4 storeys.

External Power (Optional Accessory) A separately available power supply is available as an accessory to drive the ColourPoint from mains voltage 100-250VAC 50/60Hz. Connect this to the charging/power port in the front of the unit. The device supplies 24VDC to the ColourPoint which replaces battery power. Battery is disconnected whilst the Power Supply is plugged in so will not be charged or discharged.
Function Modes There are three modes of Operation, accessed through the FUNCTION menu; Cust Col This mode allows the fixture to output a static Red, Green, Blue or White colour, or any combination thereof; each colour may be set to any value 0 to 255. Any W-DMX signal, if present, is ignored. Static In this mode the fixture outputs a static LEE or preset ‘cc’ colour as selected.

The selected colour is only saved when is pressed.
DMX Operation CORE ColourPoint is equipped with a Wireless Solution W-DMX wireless radio receiver. This allows the fixture colour to be set up by or synchronized with sequences produced by a DMX lighting controller. A compatible W-DMX transmitter attached to a DMX controller is necessary, available separately. This could be a lighting desk, a specific controller, or a CORE Point 15, 20 or 30 Master unit. DMX Addr: 001 When in DMX mode the display will show the current active DMX Start Address.
W-DMX Pairing and Unpairing ColourPoint units need to be manually paired with the lighting control unit equipped with a W-DMX transmitter. This could be a lighting desk with DMX Output, or a CORE Point15/20/30 Master unit with a W-DMX transmitter inside. This allows a group of ColourPoint fixtures to be controlled from the lighting desk or Point15/20/30 Master using the built-in colour cycles (Inside Point15/20/30). Or set up individually selected colours across many units at once from just one Master unit.
Pairing with a W-DMX Transmitter unit Switch on the ColourPoint. Ensure the ColourPoint is unpaired from any other transmitter (the LINK LED is OFF) – above. Ensure the transmitter is within range and switched on. Press its ‘FUNCTION’ button for more than 1s. The transmitter will scan for all unlinked receivers for around 10 seconds; the LED will flash. If pairing is successful the LINK LED on the ColourPoint will illuminate.
Additional Settings A number of additional settings may be accessed within the menu system: Power Mode Under the “CHANGE Settings” menu ColourPoint has two power modes that can be selected: Power LongLife Power Normal 50% Power Full Power The “Normal” option provides maximum light output at the cost of reduced battery life. “LongLife” reduces the LED output by 50%, therefore enables 2 x running period for ALL FUNCTIONS, whether stand-alone or DMX.
