RDM/DMX Profiles for Miro Cube® 2 4C & 4CA
- 8bit LEGACY (4ch): This mode uses 4 raw intensity faders (red, green, blue, amber/white)
- 16bit LEGACY (8ch): This mode uses 8 faders to control the colors (red coarse, red fine, green coarse, green fine, blue coarse, blue fine, amber/white coarse, amber/white fine)
- 8bit+ MASTER (5ch): This mode uses 4 raw intensity faders (red, green, blue, amber/white) and uses a fifth fader for master dimmer.
- 8bit+CCT_2CH (2ch): This mode uses two faders to control CCT and intensity. The first fader is CCT (2200K to 10,000K), and the second fader is intensity.
- 8bit_1MASTER (1ch): This mode can be used to "lock" in a specific color/recipe. For example, if the user is in personality #1 and mixes a color purple, then switches to personality #5, the color purple will be locked into memory. Even when the fixture is power cycled, the color purple will always come up. This locked in color can be dimmed with a single channel of DMX, and/or 0-10V on hardwired versions.
- 8bit+ DUAL (6ch): This mode allows the user to switch between CCT white mode, and raw color mode using the 6th DMX fader. When the 6th channel is below 50%, the fixture will use 4 raw intensity faders (red, green, blue, amber/white) and channel 5 for master dimmer. When the 6th channel is above 50%, the first channel will be CCT, and channel 5 will remain master dimmer.
- 8bit NO PWM (4ch): This mode uses 4 raw intensity faders and does NOT PWM the LEDs - the fixture adjusts the currents to change the brightness. This causes the fixture to be more "steppy" between brightness settings, but will never flicker on camera (even at high frame rates).
RDM/DMX Profiles for Miro Cube® 2 WNC
- 8bit LEGACY (3ch): This mode uses 3 raw intensity faders (warm, neutral, cool)
- 16bit LEGACY (6ch): This mode uses 6 faders to control the colors (warm coarse, warm fine, neutral coarse, neutral fine, cool coarse, cool fine)
- 8bit+ MASTER (4ch): This mode uses 3 raw intensity faders (warm, neutral, cool) and uses a forth fader for master dimmer.
- 8bit+CCT_2CH (2ch): This mode uses two faders to control CCT and intensity. The first fader is CCT (2800K to 6000K), and the second fader is intensity.
- 8bit_1MASTER (1ch): This mode can be used to "lock" in a specific color/recipe. For example, if the user is in personality #1 and mixes warm and cool and then switches to personality #5, the recipe will be locked into memory. Even when the fixture is power cycled, the recipe will always come up. This locked in color can be dimmed with a single channel of DMX, and/or 0-10V on hardwired versions.
- 8bit+ DUAL (6ch): This mode allows the user to switch between CCT white mode, and raw color mode using the channel 6 DMX fader. When the 6th channel is below 50%, the fixture will use 3 raw intensity faders (warm, neutral, cool) and channel 5 for master dimmer. When the 6th channel is above 50%, the first channel will be CCT, and channel 5 will remain master dimmer.
- 8bit NO PWM (3ch): This mode uses 3 raw intensity faders and does NOT PWM the LEDs - the fixture adjusts the currents with analog to change the brightness. This causes the fixture to be more "steppy" between brightness settings, but will never flicker on camera (even at high frame rates).
RDM/DMX Profiles for Miro Cube® 2 UV365
- 8bit LEGACY (1ch): This mode uses 1 raw intensity fader (UV)
- 16bit LEGACY (2ch): This mode uses 2 faders to control the colors (UV Coarse, UV Fine)
- 8bit+ MASTER (2ch): This mode uses 1 raw intensity fader (UV) and uses a second fader for master dimmer.
- 8bit NO PWM (1ch): This mode uses 1 raw intensity fader and does NOT PWM the LEDs - the fixture adjusts the currents with analog to change the brightness. This causes the fixture to be more "steppy" between brightness settings, but will never flicker on camera (even at high frame rates).
- 8bit_1MASTER(1ch): This mode can be used to "lock" in a specific brightness. Then one channel of DMX on 0-10V on hardwired versions can be used to dim the brightness down.

Filament Fade (Output Response Time)
Filament Fade can be set with RDM or with the User Interface. This setting will overlay a smooth dimming effect over the incoming DMX which will cause the fixture to better emulate the dimming curve of traditional fixtures. This feature can also be used to help smooth out a steppy DMX source.
Four settings are available:
- OFF
- MIN
- MED
- MAX
Ludicrous Mode ^™ vs. Standard Mode (Dimming Curve)
Traditional four color fixtures will divide the total power consumption evenly across all four channels. For example, a 50W four color fixture will allocate 12.5W for each color which will only allow the user to achieve the full 50W power level when all colors are set to full.
Our patented Ludicrous Mode technology enables Miro Cube 2 fixtures to utilize their full potential – no matter what hue or color temperature they're producing. For example, Ludicrous Mode will allow the user to achieve the full 50W output when the color purple is mixed with Red and Blue. A traditional fixture would only output 25W with Red and Blue.
Miro Cube 2 ships with Ludicrous Mode enabled. Two settings are available.
- Ludicrous Mode
- Standard
PWM Frequency (Modulation Frequency)
In all personalities except NO PWM mode, the PWM frequency can be set. Typically, faster PWM frequencies are better. The fixture ships in 16khz by default.
Two settings are available:
- 16kHz (16,000hz)
- 4kHz (4,000hz)
Device Label
The fixtures can be given a name by editing the Device Label using RDM.
DMX Address
The fixture's DMX Start Address can be adjusted using RDM.
Serial Number and Firmware Revision
The fixture's unique Serial Number and Firmware Revision can be obtained using RDM
Air Temperature (Sensors)
The Air Temperature flowing through the fixture can be monitored using RDM. The fixture will Over Temperature fault at 76^ C ( 170^ F). This internal temperature will only be reached when the fixture is operating at full power in environments over 50^ C ( 122^ F) ambient temperatures.
Runtime and Power Cycles (Power/Lamp)
The total runtime in Hours and number of Power Cycles is recorded and can be obtained using RDM.
Wiring/0-10V Dimming
| Wire Color | Assignment |
| Green | Earth Ground |
| White | Line Voltage Neutral |
| Black | Line Voltage Hot |
| Purple | 0-10V Dimming (leave disconnected when not using 0-10V dimming) |
| Pink | 0-10V (leave disconnected when not using 0-10V dimming) |
Wiring:
The hard-wired power cable attached to Miro Cube 2 fixtures can be used with standard 0-10V dimmers to adjust global intensity using the fixtures' Master Dim Mode.

natural_image
Pure electrical circuit lines without any symbolsPurple and Pink wires are to be used with standard 0-10V dimmers. These wires should be properly insulated from all electrical circuits when not used.
NOTE: To achieve proper 0-100% intensity control, high-level and low-level trimming may be required on the 3rd party dimmer depending on the total number of fixtures connected together. A maximum of 200uA will be sourced from each fixture to the dimmer.
Control:
The Miro Cube® 2 must be set to a personality that uses Master Dimmer for use with a 0-10V dimmer. The DMX channel associated with Master Dimmer will set the maximum global brightness, and the 0-10V dimmer will lower the global brightness from that point.
If a 0-10V dimmer is not connected to the Purple and Pink wires, the fixture will ignore 0-10V control.
Personality 5 can be used in conjunction with a 0-10V dimmer without DMX. A user can “lock in” a recipe or color into Personality 5, DMX can be removed and a 0-10V dimmer can be used by itself to adjust intensity.
User Interface - Classic Conversion Only
The User Interface allows for your fixture to be controlled without the need of a DMX console or control device. Here is what the interface will look like:

Manual Mode
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT ANY Miro Cube® 2 IN MANUAL MODE TO ANY OTHER DMX SENDING DEVICE AS CONTENTION ON THE DMX512 INPUT WILL RESULT.

User Interface - Classic Conversion Only
Filament Fade:
An incandescent lamp has a slight delay, or lag with changing intensities, whereas an LED responds instantly. The difference is most noticeable during a theatrical black out. The Miro Cube® 2 can emulate an incandescent lamp by selecting one of the Tungsten Fade settings.
To change the Filament Fade setting, press MENU until “CHANGE FILAMNT FADE?” appears on the screen, and press OK. Using the ▲ and ▼ keys select from “OFF”, “1 (MIN)”, “2 (MID)” or ”3 (MAX)” and press OK. A setting of “3 (MAX)” provides the greatest delay. A setting of “0” will turn the Filament Fade off, and allow the LEDs to respond instantly to changing DMX input.
Ludicrous vs. Standard:
The fixture has two dimming curve modes, Ludicrous and Standard. In Ludicrous Mode, the Miro Cube® 2 increases the brightness up to 4x of any color or CCT. To change to Ludicrous or Standard Mode press MENU until “CHANGE DIMMING CURV?” appears on the LCD, then press OK. Select the desired dimming curve using the ▲ or ▼ keys, and press OK.
Power LED Brightness:
The blue power LED on the rear of the fixture can be adjusted with the User Interface (ENT versions only). To change the power LED Brightness setting, press MENU until “CHANGE POWER LED?” appears on the screen, and press OK. Using the ▲ and ▼ keys select from OFF, MIN, MED and MAX and press OK.
PWM Frequency:
In all personalities except NO PWM mode, the PWM frequency can be set. Typically, faster PWM frequencies are better. The fixture ships in 16khz by default. To change the PWM Frequency setting, press MENU until “SET TO 16KHZ PWM?” or “SET TO 4KHZ PWM?” appears on the screen, and press OK.
OPTI-SCULPT™ Beam Shaping Lenses
The beam angle can be easily adjusted using Rosco OPTI-SCULPT™ beam shaping lenses. Using a Miro Cube® 2 without an OPTI-SCULPT lens will create a narrow beam angle.
NOTE: DISCONNECT THE FIXTURE FROM POWER BEFORE REMOVING THUMBSCREWS.

To add or change an OPTI-SCULPT lens, unscrew the thumbscrews from the front panel and remove the acrylic panel. Install the desired OPTI-SCULPT onto the posts. Place the acrylic panel on top and re-secure it with the four thumbscrews.
