The AirPar COB QUAD features a rechargeable lithium-ion battery for wire free use. The battery can power the light for up to 20 hours from a full charge. An adaptive power supply with an input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC 50/60Hz is also included.

The battery charges whenever the included power adapter is connected and plugged into a power source. The light can be used while charging.

AIRPAR COB QUAD

AIRPAR COB QUAD

AIRPAR COB QUAD

The AirPar COB QUAD includes an integrated W-DMX transceiver for instant wireless connectivity. This enables the AirPar to wirelessly control any Air Series fixture in the same wireless group. To achieve this, simply set an AirPar to Master and all other fixtures to Slave. Turn on wireless on all fixtures and set them to the same wireless group ID.

Master/Slave mode allows you to connect multiple units together using one (1) unit to control others in a chain. When a fixture is set to 'Master Mode,' this unit will always act as a controlling unit until it is switched out of 'Master Mode'. The Master unit will send out signal to Slave units which will react in synchronization. When a fixture is set into 'Slave Mode', this fixture will receive the Master signal.

To make a connection, simply set the AirHub and AirPar COB QUAD to the same group ID. Both units are set to ID01 in the example below.

Fixture does not respond to sound	Make sure the fixture is in Sound Active mode.
IR Remote will not respond	IR Remote will not respond to any inputs when the Black Out mode is enabled. If the remote is not responding when a button is pressed, try pressing (Black Out). It may already be in Black Out Mode thus rendering the light dark.
