Mounting

The 2inspireTM 100 / 200 / 300 comes with a M5 X 0.8 tapped hole for mounting primarily. It is crucial to always secure the fixture with the safety bracket provided along with the fixture and use safety wire or chain for proper installation. Additionally, it is highly important to use the supplied eyebolt specifically designed for the fixture. Furthermore, alternative mounting options, including Wall Mount, Yoke, Pendant Ceiling Mount, and Blind Ceiling Mount kits, are available. For more information on these mounting options, kindly consult your local representative or visit the Chroma-Q website.

Optics

“Diffusion kits” are slide-in optical accessories available in various options to adjust the light output.

Control

The 2inspireTM 100 / 200 / 300 offers control options through ArtNet or sACN over Ethernet using a PoE switch or PoE Injector or Chroma-Q® 2inspireTM PSE. Currently, RDM control is exclusively supported when utilizing ArtNet. The 2inspire TM utilizes the latest Chroma-Q Gen3TM Color Engine control. In this new algorithm, color control is fully abstracted from the direct control of the LEDs. This means that the Red, Green, and Blue controls do not directly control the corresponding LEDs but rather control the position of the color point throughout the entire color space that the fixture can cover. The 2inspireTM algorithm has been designed to always provide the best possible combination of all five LED sources: Red, Green, Blue, Warm White, and Cold White.
