Color Command Units

Have used them lots over the years and always loved them.
At 750W they were plently for my applications.
Good saturated colors. Green is of course lesser due to being incandescent

Setting up the Color Power can be a bit tricky the first time.
Differences between units can be adjusted out (hardware) or compensated in programming pallets.

Demo 'em.

If they have the rotary switches,
Pass!!
Or take that into account when purchasing.
Nothing on color commands will cause you more pain than the old rotary switches.

And I agree with Christall, the Color powers are difficult to setup the first time.
But I would say that they are often hard to setup the 2nd 3rd, 4th and 5th time as well.
In any case, don't use the autoaddress it almost never works correctly in my experience.

That being said, nice light, even though it is a bit loud in quick color changes.
Personally, i prefer the color merge....
That was a cool S4 add on.....

Oh yeah, those damn rotary switches.
The little arrow would get worn out and then you couldn't tell which end was the pointer.

High End came out with an upgrade years ago so the units I have used all had the DIP switch banks.

There was also an upgrade for the Color Power that helped a lot.
I found it best to keep the string setup simple and then it would work fine.

And you need some considerable dimmer capacity at 750w per unit.

The Color Commands are great for what they do. But make sure you run all your data lines before powering the Color Power. Plugging/unplugging data with a powered Color Power can cause damage. I had that headache just last week with Color Merges.
