1. Overview

The Color Block 2 fixture combines the modularity and versatility with the new single color RGBA optics, 530 lumens

output (almost double the original model) and theatrical grade dimming. Each Color Block 2 fixture features 48 high

output LED set into 12 single-optic RGBA clusters that are grouped into 4 cells.

The control options incorporate a choice of HSI (Hue, Saturation and Intensity), RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Amber), RGB

(Red, Green, Blue, with *Magic Amber), RGBI (Red, Green, Blue with *Magic Amber and Intensity) control modes, and

a dynamic Variable Effects Engine integrated in software which gives the lighting designer full control over colour and

effects combinations.

Two DMX controlled power supplies are available. The Color Block PSU-05B features 1 XLR4 output with a maximum

capacity of 5 daisy-chained Color Block 2 fixtures and the Color Block PSU-30 features 6 XLR4 outputs with a

maximum capacity of 5 daisy-chained Color Block 2 fixtures for each output. See full PSU-05B and PSU-30 manuals

for control details.
