Precision Beam Control for Demanding Productions
The ADJ Focus Profile delivers studio-quality framing and color mixing in a compact 400 W CMY LED moving-head spot. With 20,000 lm output, motorized 7–45° zoom, four framing shutter blades, and variable CTO from 2700 K–6700 K, it gives lighting designers total command of beam shape and color temperature on any stage.
Built for versatile integration, the Focus Profile offers three DMX channel modes (36/40/51) plus full RDM support for remote addressing and status feedback. A six-button control panel and reversible color LCD make setup and mode changes fast, while >70 CRI and 16-bit dimming ensure smooth, flicker-free fades for broadcast and live events.
Real-World Applications & Sound Roles:
- Concert and tour lighting—sharp-edged specials and follow-spot duties
- Theatrical productions—precise framing for set pieces and actor highlights
- Houses of worship—variable zoom for altar wash and architectural accents
- Corporate events—compact profile spots for trade-show booths and key-note stages
- Film and broadcast—quiet operation, high CRI, and flicker-free dimming for camera-ready lighting
Where This System Excels
- High-Output Brightness: 20,000 lumens from a 400 W CMY LED engine deliver punchy specials and bold wash effects.
- Precision Beam Shaping: Motorized 7–45° zoom plus four framing shutters allow razor-sharp edge control and bespoke beam profiles.
- Advanced Color Mixing: Full CMY plus 0–100% CTO from 2700 K–6700 K, with >70 CRI, ensures accurate whites and smooth gels in any scene.
- Silent, Flicker-Free Dimming: 16-bit dimming curves (Standard, Stage, TV, Architectural) produce ultra-smooth fades for broadcast and live events.
- Tour-Ready Construction: Rugged laminated plywood body, recessed handles, and spring-loaded butterfly latches survive road-case punishment.
Control Modes
DMX Channel Flexibility: Three selectable modes (36, 40, or 51 channels) give you full or compact control over color mixing, zoom, framing, and effects.
RDM Support: Remote Device Management enables fixture addressing, status monitoring, and parameter adjustments from compatible consoles or software.
Onboard Interface: Six-button control panel with reversible full-color LCD provides quick access to DMX addressing, mode selection, dimming curves, and system settings.
16-Bit Motion & Dimming: Fine resolution pan/tilt and dimmer channels ensure smooth, precise movements and intensity fades.
Optics & Framing Shutter Architecture
Precision Zoom Lens System: The Focus Profile features a motorized 7–45° zoom, driven by a robust stepper motor and high-quality glass optics. This range allows you to go from tight beam specials to broad washes without manual intervention.
Four-Blade Framing Shutters: Four individually adjustable framing blades rotate ±60° to sculpt the beam with razor-sharp edges. Each blade can be indexed to create custom aperture shapes or fully inserted for masking unwanted spill.
Integrated Shape Rotation: The framing module can rotate 360°, enabling dynamic gobo-like effects with clean, straight-edge projections. Blade movement is smooth and silent, ensuring no audio interference in live or broadcast environments.
This optical and shutter design is engineered for maximum creative control—no compromises between focus, framing, or beam shaping.
Color Mixing & Dimming Engine
400 W CMY LED Engine: Combines cyan, magenta, and yellow diodes into a single LED module for continuous color mixing. Variable CTO (0–100%) lets you dial in white temperatures from 2700 K to 6700 K with precision.
High-CRI Performance: Rated at >70 CRI (without filter) and up to >87 CRI (with CRI filter), ensuring accurate color rendition for theatrical, broadcast, or event use.
16-Bit Dimming & Curves: Four professional dimmer profiles—Standard, Stage, TV, and Architectural—allow smooth, flicker-free fades across 16-bit resolution. Fine-grain control prevents banding and ensures camera-safe operation.
The combination of CMY mixing, variable CTO, and advanced dimming curves delivers truly cinematic light quality.
Control Systems & Networking
Flexible DMX Modes: Choose between 36, 40, or 51 DMX channels to balance control granularity with console footprint. Full parameter access includes zoom, framing, color mixing, CTO, dimming, and more.
RDM Capability: Remote Device Management lets you set addresses, monitor status, and adjust parameters over the same DMX link—no need for on-board menu navigation at height.
Network Integration: Built-in RJ45 Ethernet ports support Art-Net input/output, enabling easy integration into modern networked lighting systems and media servers.
Onboard Interface: A six-button touch panel and reversible full-color LCD screen provide rapid local setup. The display can invert for under-hung or inverted installations, ensuring legible menu access in any orientation.
From legacy DMX to networked Art-Net and RDM, the Focus Profile adapts to any control ecosystem on tour or in install.
How to Deploy in the Field
- Truss or Grid Mounting: Attach the adjustable yoke to a standard C-clamp on your lighting truss. Always secure a secondary safety cable to the built-in rigging point before powering on.
- Floor or Stage Stand: Use a robust lighting stand or rolling base plate. Lock the pan/tilt axes via the integrated knobs to maintain precise framing during solo or static installations.
- Inverted Installations: Invert the fixture beneath truss or catwalks—use the LCD’s 180° invert function for legible menu navigation and address changes when hung upside down.
- Road-Case Transport: Pack in a dedicated road case with foam-cut compartments to protect optics and shutters. Handle by spring-loaded recessed handles and transport on heavy-duty casters when possible.
- Rapid Color & Position Setup: Pre-program DMX or RDM scenes before load-in. Use the six-button panel and backlit LCD to recall zoom, framing, and color presets on-the-fly for fast scene changes.
