FreeStyle Fixture Assembly

The FreeStyle T42/T22 fixture is comprised of a Louver, Reflector, and Tube Harness. The Louver and Reflector are held in place with Velcro fasteners. The Tube Harness is secured by means of a ¼ turn fastener.

The FreeStyle Reflector has a unique design to accommodate the aluminum channel on the back of the FreeStyle tube. It provides even light distribution and maximizes light output. In addition, it acts as a heatsink and allows the FreeStyle Tubes to run cooler.

FreeStyle Harness

Align arrows on the harness connector with the tube. Push and click into place. To remove the harness connector, turn the locking ring to the left and pull. Push tubes into the fixture’s tube holder clips. The tubes can operate independently of the fixture allowing them to be built into sets or custom softboxes or hand-held as a single tube for an eye-light. To Release the Tube Harness Rotate the ¼ turn fastener clockwise to release the harness. The harness connects directly to the controller. Connect the harness to the controller. Align the key ways on the harness connector with the oval Logo at the top with the circular receptacle on the ballast. Rotate the silver locking ring until it clicks into the lock position.

Extension Cable

The FreeStyle LED fixture can operate remotely from the controller with the extension cable up to 50ft (2 x 25ft). Remote operation of the controller provides more rigging options. To connect Harness to Extension Cable, align oval Logos on the Harness and Extension. Rotate the silver locking ring until it clicks into the locked position.

Mounting the Fixture

The standard mount (MTP-KG41) comes with a 3/8” Lollipop that clamps into a grip head. The ball and socket mount allow the fixture to be oriented in a broad range of angles. Align the center pin of the mounting plate to the center hole on the mating plate. Rotate plate clockwise until the four shoulder rivets drop into the receptacle. A locking pin will snap into place when the plate is properly seated. The yellow wire loops provide attachment points for a safety chain.

To remove the plate, pull up on the locking pin and reverse the mounting procedure

Turn the knob to loosen or tighten the mount.

Lollipops are interchangeable.

• MTP-L Kino 41 Lollipop w/ 3/8” Pin (10mm)
• MTP-LBC Kino 41 Lollipop w/ Baby Rcvr Curve(16mm)
• MTP-LBS Kino 41 Lollipop w/ Baby Rcvr Short (16mm)

Camera LUT

The Camera LUT (Look-up Tables) feature harmonizes the Kino Flo light sources to the camera. Depending on the camera and the Kelvin setting, some differences are very subtle, while others can be more dramatic. The corrections are applied as a CIE xy correction at each CCT (Kelvin) setting. The default setting is targeting the CIE xyz response (human eye). Press the green menu button to the left of the display screen and scroll down to Camera LUT, then press the control knob. Menu with camera selection will be displayed. Turn the control knob and press to select camera setting:

• C1 Arri Alexa
• C2 Sony Venice
• C3 Panavision DXL
• C4 Panasonic Varicam

The camera code (C1 for Arri Alexa), for example, will appear on the main menu between DIM and CCT to designate that a camera setting is active.
Note: When the controller is reset, the camera settings will go to Kino Flo Default mode.

Color Space

Color Space defines the RGB color space used and only affects color – not Kelvin. It is used in RGB mode and Hue Angle and Saturation. There are a few instances in the FX (Effects) mode that are also affected when color is used. The RGB color space defines the value of Red, Green, and Blue primaries (in CIE xy) and the white point is fixed at 6500 Kelvin.
Press the green menu button to the left of the display screen and scroll down to Color Space, then press the control knob. Menu with color selection will be displayed. Turn the control knob and press to select Color Space options:
rec 709 / sRGB
P3 D65
rec 2020

The color space rec 709 / sRGB is commonly used on computer monitors, SDTV, and HDTV television. There are slight gamma variations between rec 709 / sRGB, but not enough to separate into 2 color spaces. The color space P3 D65 is a common color space for digital movie projection. The color space rec 2020 is used in ultra high definition television (UHDTV). The color space is used when the controller is set to the RGB mode and when set to the Hue Angle/ Saturation mode. In RGB mode – the color space designation will be displayed at the top of the menu. When changing the Red, Blue, or Green values, the Kelvin will be locked in at 6500 for all color spaces. When Kelvin is locked in, CCT will be displayed as CCT. When using Green/Magenta the CCT value is unlocked and color space selection has no impact. In Hue Angle/Saturation mode – the color space designation will be displayed on the Gel line and GEL will be displayed as GEL and CCT will be displayed as  CCT*. The Color space will be displayed only when Hue Angle and Saturation are being used. When using Green/Magenta or Gel, the CCT will be unlocked and color space selection has no impact.
