UTPUT AND VICE VERSA SEE DETAIL C 4 THE ACCESSORY POWER JACK IS FOR USE WITH COLOR KINETICS PRODUCTS ONLY IMPORTANT INFORMATION Strobe Warning There is some anecdotal evidence that strobe lighting may induce epileptic symptoms in certain susceptible individuals although no associated product warnings have been issued by United States government according to the Food and Drug Administration If strobe lights are used some international regulatory agencies recommend keeping flicker rates at or below four flashes per second as less of the flicker sensitive popula tion will then be at risk of an attack This flicker rate applies only to the overall output of any group of lights in direct view However when more than one strobe light is used the flashes should be synchronized End users should also consider issuing a warning alerting audience or viewers to the presence of strobe lighting Temperature Monitoring For protection from extreme temperatures ColorBlaze has been designed with a temperature monitoring feature If operating temperatures rise to an unsafe level a compensation circuit is triggered and the operation of some or all light segments is interrupted causing the lights to turn dull red After 30 minutes the lights will auto cycle and return to full intensity To prevent additional power shut downs determine the cause of the overheating and correct the problem Fan Control For additional heat protection
