Anduril User Manual

-------------------

Anduril is an open-source firmware for flashlights, distributed under 

the terms of the GPL v3.  The sources can be obtained here:

  http://tiny.cc/TKAnduril

  https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~toykeeper/flashlight-firmware/trunk/files/head:/ToyKeeper/spaghetti-monster/anduril/

Quick Start

-----------

After putting a battery in the light and tightening the parts together, 

the light should quickly blink once to confirm it has power and is now 

operational.  After that, basic usage is simple:

  - Click to turn the light on or off.

  - Hold the button to change brightness.

  - Release and hold again to change brightness the other way.

That is all the user needs to know for basic use, but there are many 

more modes and features available for people who want more.

Before reading the rest of this manual, it is recommended that users 

look at the Anduril UI diagram(s), which should be provided along with the 

flashlight.

Button presses

--------------

Button presses are abbreviated using a simple notation:

  - 1C: One click.  Press and then quickly release the button.

  - 1H: Hold.  Press the button, but keep holding it.

  - 2C: Two clicks.  Press and release quickly, twice.

  - 2H: Click, hold.  Click two times, but hold the second press.

  - 3C: Three clicks.  Press and release quickly, three times.

  - 3H: Click, click, hold.  Click three times, but hold the final press.

The same pattern is used with higher numbers too.  For example, 10C 

means ten clicks...  and 10H means ten clicks but hold the final press.

Simple UI

---------

By default, the light uses a simple UI.  This is useful if you lend the 

light to someone else, or if you just don't want to bother with any 

crazy disco modes.

Simple UI has all the basic functions needed to work as a flashlight, 

but the minimum and maximum brightness are limited by default to make it 

safer, and any complex or advanced functions are blocked.

Functions available in Simple UI include:

  - 1C: On / off

  - 1H: Ramp up (or down, if button was released less than a second ago)

  - 2H: If light is on : ramp down

        If light is off: momentary high mode

  - 2C: Double click to go to / from highest safe level

  - 4C: Lockout mode.

Some other modes and functions are available too.  When the light is 

off, these are the options:

  - 3C: Battery check mode.  (displays voltage once, then turns off)

  - 4C: Lockout mode.

  - 10H: Switch to Advanced UI.

  - 15C or more: Version check.

In Lockout mode with Simple UI, there are a few functions:

  - 1H: Momentary moon

  - 2H: Momentary low

  - 3C: Unlock and turn off

  - 4C: Unlock and turn on

  - 4H: Unlock and turn on at low level

  - 5C: Unlock and turn on at high level

To change between Simple UI and Advanced UI, turn the light off and then 

do one of these:

  In Simple UI:

    - 10H: Go to Advanced UI.

  In Advanced UI:

    - 10C: Go to Simple UI.

    - 10H: Configure Simple UI.

If you get lost, or if you want to auto-calibrate the temperature 

sensor, do a factory reset.  The process for this is:

  - Loosen tailcap

  - Hold button

  - Tighten tailcap

  - Keep holding button for about 4s

The light should flicker while getting brighter, then briefly burst to 

full power.  Hold until it reaches full power to do a reset, or let go 

of the button early to abort.

On some lights, like products where the tailcap method is impossible, 

use 13H from Off to do a factory reset.  If this is difficult, try 

counting it like music to make it easier:

  1 2 3 4

  1 2 3 4

  1 2 3 4

  HOLD

Simple UI is enabled after each factory reset.

Simple UI can be configured in several ways, but not while Simple UI is 

active.  So go to the Advanced UI, configure things, then go back to 

Simple UI.

Configurable options include:

  - floor level

  - ceiling level

  - number of steps (in stepped ramp)

  - turbo style

Other options are inherited from Advanced UI:

  - ramp style (smooth / stepped)

  - smooth ramp speed

  - ramp-after-moon style

  - memory settings

  - auto-lock settings

  - aux LED settings

  - voltage calibration

  - thermal regulation settings

  - hardware-specific "misc menu" settings

Advanced UI

-----------

Most of the information below this is for the Advanced UI.  Anything not 

already noted above is blocked in the Simple UI.

Ramping / Stepped Ramping Modes

-------------------------------

Anduril's ramping mode uses a smooth ramp or a stepped ramp, depending 

on which style the user prefers.

Each ramp has its own settings -- floor (lowest level), ceiling (highest 

level), and the stepped ramp can also have a configurable number of 

steps.

Additionally, Simple UI has its own ramp settings for floor, ceiling, 

and number of steps.  The smooth/stepped style is inherited from the 

Advanced UI's ramp.

There are four ways to access ramping mode when the light is off:

  - 1C: Turn on at the memorized brightness.

    (see below for details about what "memorized" means)

  - 1H: Turn on at the floor level.  Let go after the light turns on to 

    stay at the floor level, or keep holding to ramp up.

  - 2C: Turn on at the ceiling level.

  - 2H: Turn on at full power, turn off when released.  (momentary turbo)

        (in Simple UI, this uses the ceiling level instead of turbo)

While the light is on, a few actions are available:

  - 1C: Turn off.

  - 2C: Go to or from the turbo level.

        (or if it has regulated down, "bump" back up to turbo)

        (turbo level / behavior is configurable)

  - 1H: Change brightness (up).  If the button was released less than a 

    second ago, or if it's already at the ceiling, it goes down instead.

  - 2H: Change brightness (down).

  - 3C: Switch to the other ramp style.  (smooth / stepped)

        (or activate the next channel mode, when more than one is enabled)

        (then use 6C instead, for smooth / stepped toggle)

  - 6C: Switch to the other ramp style.  (when 3C is mapped to next channel)

  - 3H: Momentary turbo (when current channel has no tint to ramp).

  - 3H: Tint ramping (only when current channel has adjustable tint).

  - 4H: Momentary turbo, when 3H is mapped to tint.

  - 4C: Go to lockout mode.

  - 5C: Go to momentary mode.

  - 5H: Start a sunset timer.  Details are below in the Sunset Timer section.

  - 7H: Ramp config menu.

    - Item 1: Floor level.

    - Item 2: Ceiling level.

    - Item 3:

      Stepped ramp: Number of steps.  Can be 1 to 150.

      Smooth ramp: Ramp speed.

        1 = Full speed, ~2.5s from end to end.

        2 = Half speed, ~5s from end to end.

        3 = Third speed, ~7.5s.

        4 = Quarter speed, ~10s.

  - 10C: Activate manual memory and save the current brightness.

  - 10H: Ramp extras config menu.

    - Item 1: Disable manual memory and go back to automatic memory.

              (doesn't matter what value the user enters at the prompt)

    - Item 2: Configure the manual memory timer.

              Sets the timer to N minutes, where N is the number of 

              clicks.  A value of 0 (no clicks) turns the timer off.

    - Item 3: Configure whether to ramp up after "Off -> 1H".

              0: Ramp up after moon.

              1: Don't ramp up, just stay at the floor level.

    - Item 4: Configure Advanced UI's turbo style:

              0: No turbo, only ceiling.

              1: Anduril 1 style.  Ramp -> 2C goes to full power.

              2: Anduril 2 style.  Ramp -> 2C goes to ceiling,

                 or goes to full power if user ramped up to ceiling first.

              This value also affects momentary turbo in Ramp and Off modes.

    - Item 5: Configure "smooth steps".

              0: Disable smooth steps.

              1: Enable smooth steps.

Memory determines which brightness level the light goes to with 1 click 

from off.  There are three types of brightness memory to choose from:

  - Automatic:  Always uses the last-ramped brightness.

    (does not memorize levels accessed by a shortcut,

    like turbo, 2C for ceiling, or 1H-from-off for floor)

  - Manual:  Always uses the user's saved brightness.

  - Hybrid:  Uses the automatic memory brightness if the light was only 

    off for a short time, or resets to the manual memory level if it was 

    off for a longer time.

    The timer for this is configurable from 0 to ~140 minutes.

Another way to think of it is:  There are three styles of memory for the 

last-ramped brightness level...

  - Always remember         (automatic)

  - Remember for N minutes  (hybrid)

  - Never remember          (manual)

To choose a memory style, set the configuration accordingly:

  mem type	manual mem	manual mem timer

  --------	----------	----------------

  automatic	off		any

  manual	on		zero

  hybrid	on		non-zero

If "smooth steps" is enabled, the stepped ramp uses a smooth animation 

between steps, and turning the light on/off has the edges smoothed off 

too.  With "smooth steps" turned off, these brightness changes are 

immediate.

Sunset Timer

------------

In the ramp mode or candle mode, it's possible to make the light turn 

itself off after a while.

To activate the timer, go to the brightness you want and then use a 5H 

action.  Keep holding the button, and the light should blink once per 

second.  Each blink adds 5 minutes to the timer.

In ramp mode, it slowly dims until it's at the lowest level, then shuts 

off.  In candle mode, it stays at the same brightness until the final 

minute, at which point it dims and dies out.

The user can change the brightness while the timer is active.  If this 

happens during the final few minutes, it also "bumps" the timer up to a 

minimum of 3 minutes.  So if it's getting really dim and you need a 

little more time, you could do a 5H to add 5 minutes, or simply ramp up 

to the desired brightness.

Other Modes

-----------

Anduril has several other modes too.  To access these, press the button 

more than 2 times when the light is off:

  - 3C: Blinky / utility modes, starting with battery check.

  - 3H: Strobe modes, starting with the most recently used strobe.

  - 4C: Lockout mode.

  - 5C: Momentary mode.

  - 6C: Tactical mode.

  - 7C / 7H: Aux LED configuration.

  - 9H: Misc Config menu. (only on some lights)

  - 10H: Simple UI configuration menu.

  - 13H: Factory reset (on some lights).

  - 15C or more: Version check.

Lockout Mode

------------

Click 4 times from Off to enter Lockout mode.  Or 4 times from Ramp.  

This makes the light safe to carry in a pocket or a bag or anywhere else 

the button might be pressed by accident.

To exit lockout mode, click 4 times.  The light should blink briefly and 

then turn on at the memorized level.  Or hold the final press to turn on 

at the floor level instead:

  - 3C: Unlock and go to "Off" mode

  - 4C: Go to ramp mode (memorized level).

    (uses manual mem level if there is one)

  - 4H: Go to ramp mode (floor level).

  - 5C: Go to ramp mode (ceiling level).

Lockout mode also doubles as a momentary moon mode, so the user can do 

quick tasks without having to unlock the light.  The brightness in 

lockout mode has two levels:

  - 1H: Light up at the lowest floor level.

  - 2H: Light up at the highest floor level.

        (or the manual mem level, if there is one)

  - 3H: Next channel mode (if more than one is enabled).

It is also possible to make the light lock itself automatically after 

being turned off.  To enable this, go to lockout mode and use a 10H 

action to activate the auto-lock config menu.  Release the button after 

the first blink.  Then at the prompt, click N times to set the auto-lock 

timeout to N minutes.

  - 10H: Auto-lock config menu.  Click N times to set timeout to N minutes.

         A value of zero disables the auto-lock feature.

         So, to turn off auto-lock, don't click at all.

And on lights which have aux LEDs, there may be additional functions:

  - 7C / 7H: Change Lockout Mode's aux LED pattern.  More details on 

    this below, in a separate section.

Blinky / Utility Modes

----------------------

Click 3 times from Off to access Anduril's blinky / utility modes.  This 

always starts at battery check and the user can proceed to other blinky 

modes if Advanced UI is enabled.  The sequence is:

  - Battery check.

  - Temperature check (if light has a temperature sensor).

  - Beacon mode.

  - SOS mode (if enabled).

In all of these modes, some basic actions are available:

  - Click: Turn off.

  - 2 clicks: Next blinky mode.

Additionally, in battery check and temperature check modes:

  - 7H: Go to the voltage config menu or thermal config menu.

In more detail, this is what each blinky / utility mode does:

  Battery check:

    Blinks out the battery voltage per cell.  Full is 4.2V, empty is 

    about 3.0V.  The light blinks the whole-number digit first, pauses, 

    then blinks out the "tenths" digit.  Then a longer pause, and it 

    repeats.

    So for 4.2V, it would be "blink-blink-blink-blink .. blink-blink".

    A "zero" digit is represented by a very quick blink.

    On lights with more than one set of LEDs, pressing 3C during batt 

    check mode can select which set of LEDs (which channel mode) it uses 

    to blink out numbers.

    The voltage config menu has these settings:

      1. Voltage correction factor.  This adjusts the battery 

         measurement sensor, allowing the user to add or subtract up to 

         0.30V in 0.05V steps.  Click N times to enter a value:

         1C: -0.30V

         2C: -0.25V

         3C: -0.20V

         4C: -0.15V

         5C: -0.10V

         6C: -0.05V

         7C: default, 0V

         8C: +0.05V

         9C: +0.10V

         10C: +0.15V

         11C: +0.20V

         12C: +0.25V

         13C: +0.30V

      2. Post-off voltage display timeout.  (only on lights with RGB aux)

         This setting determines how many seconds the RGB aux LEDs 

         display the voltage color after the torch goes to sleep.  Click 

         once per desired second, or zero times to turn this function 

         off.

  Temperature check:

    Blinks out the current temperature in degrees C.  This number should 

    be pretty close to what a real thermometer says.  If not, it would 

    be a good idea to enter the thermal config menu and calibrate the 

    sensor.  Or let the light settle to room temperature, then use 

    factory reset to auto-calibrate the sensor.

    The thermal config menu has two settings:

    - Current temperature.  Click once per degree C to calibrate the 

      sensor.  For example, if the ambient temperature is 21 C, then 

      click 21 times.

    - Temperature limit.  This sets the maximum temperature the light 

      can reach before it will start doing thermal regulation to keep 

      itself from overheating.  Click once per degree C above 30.  For 

      example, to set the limit to 50 C, click 20 times.  The default is 

      45 C, and the highest value it will allow is 70 C.

  Beacon mode:

    Blinks at a slow speed.  The light stays on for 100ms, and then 

    stays off until the next blink.  The brightness and the number of 

    seconds between pulses are configurable:

      - Brightness is the user's memorized ramp level, so set this in 

        ramping mode before activating beacon mode.  Follows the same 

        memory rules as ramping -- automatic, manual, or hybrid.

      - Speed is configured by holding the button.  The light should 

        blink once per second while holding the button.  Release it 

        after the desired amount of time has passed, to set a new beacon 

        speed.

        For example, to do a 10-second alpine beacon, hold the button 

        for 10 seconds.

  SOS mode:

    Blinks out a distress signal.  Three short, three long, three short.  

    Repeats until light is turned off or until battery is low.

    The memorized ramp level determines the brightness of SOS Mode.

Strobe / Mood Modes

-------------------

Anduril includes a few extra modes for a variety of purposes:

  - Candle mode

  - Bike flasher

  - Party strobe

  - Tactical strobe

  - Lightning storm mode

Click 3 times from Off to access these, but hold the third click for a 

moment.  Click, click, hold.  The last-used strobe mode is remembered, 

so it will return to whichever one you used last.

In all of these modes, a few actions are available:

  - 1C: Turn off.

  - 2C: Next strobe / mood mode.

  - 1H: Increase brightness, or strobe faster.  (except lightning)

  - 2H: Decrease brightness, or strobe slower.  (except lightning)

  - 4C: Previous strobe / mood mode.

  - 5C: Go to momentary mode, for a momentary strobe.

        (this is useful for light painting)

Additionally, candle mode has one more action:

  - 5H: Activate Sunset Timer, and/or add 5 minutes to the timer.

In more detail, here is what each mode does:

  - Candle mode

    Brightness changes randomly in a pattern resembling a candle flame.  

    If a timer is set, it will run until the timer expires, then get 

    dimmer for one minute, then sputter and turn itself off.  Without a 

    timer, candle mode runs until the user turns it off.  Brightness is 

    configurable.

  - Bike flasher

    Runs at a medium level, but stutters to a brighter level once per 

    second.  Designed to be more visible than a normal ramping mode, but 

    otherwise works mostly the same.  Brightness is configurable.

  - Party strobe

    Motion-freezing strobe light.  Can be used to freeze spinning fans 

    and falling water.  Speed is configurable.

  - Tactical strobe

    Disorienting strobe light.  Can be used to irritate people.  Speed 

    is configurable, and the duty cycle is always 33%.

    Be careful about heat in this mode, if using it for a long time.

  - Police strobe (on some lights)

    2-color police style strobe.  Only works on lights with 2 or more 

    colors.

  - Lightning storm mode

    Flashes at random brightness and random speed to simulate lightning 

    strikes during a busy lightning storm.  Do not look directly at the 

    flashlight when this mode is running, because it may suddenly go to 

    full power without warning.

Momentary Mode

--------------

Click 5 times from Off to enter Momentary mode.  Or 5 times from Ramp, 

or 5 times from a strobe mode.

This locks the flashlight into a single-mode interface where the LEDs 

are only on when the button is held down.  It is intended for Morse 

code, light painting, and other tasks where the light should be on only 

for a short time and probably in a pattern.

Momentary mode does either a steady brightness level or a strobe, 

depending on which was active before going to momentary mode.  To select 

which one, go to the mode you want to use, adjust the brightness and 

speed and other settings, then click 5 times to enter momentary mode.

In steady mode, brightness is the memorized ramp level, so adjust that 

in Ramp Mode before entering momentary mode.

In momentary strobe mode, the settings are copied from the last-used 

strobe mode, such as party strobe, tactical strobe, or lightning.

To exit this mode, physically disconnect power by unscrewing the tailcap 

or battery tube.

Tactical Mode

--------------

Click 6 times from Off to enter Tactical Mode, or 6 times in Tactical 

Mode to exit and go back to "Off".

Tactical Mode provides instant momentary access to high, low, and 

strobe, but each of these is configurable.  The inputs are:

  - 1H: High

  - 2H: Low

  - 3H: Strobe

Each of these only lasts as long as you hold the button.

Other commands in Tactical Mode are:

  - 6C: exit (go back to Off Mode)

  - 7H: Tactical Mode config menu

    - 1st blink: configure tactical slot 1

    - 2nd blink: configure tactical slot 2

    - 3rd blink: configure tactical slot 3

To change what is in a tactical slot, press 7H, then release the button 

after the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd blink.  Then enter a number.  Each click adds 

1, and each hold adds 10.  The number can be:

  - 1 to 150: set the brightness level

  - 0: last-used strobe mode

  - 151+: go directly to a specific strobe mode

    151 = party strobe

    152 = tactical strobe

    153+ = other strobes, in the same order they're in in the "Off -> 3H"

           strobe group

This assumes the light has a ramp 150 levels long.  Strobe modes start 

at the ramp size plus 1, so it may be different if a light has a 

different ramp size.

Configuration Menus

-------------------

Every config menu has the same interface.  It has one or more options 

the user can configure, and it will go through them in order.  For each 

menu item, the light follows the same pattern:

  - Blink once, then go to a lower brightness.  The user can keep 

    holding the button to skip this menu item, or release the button to 

    dive in and enter a new value.

  - If the user released the button:

    - Stutter or "buzz" quickly between two brightness levels for a few 

      seconds.  This indicates that the user can click one or more times 

      to enter a number.  It will keep buzzing until the user stops 

      clicking, so there is no need to hurry.

      The actions here are:

      - click: add 1

      - hold: add 10  (only in versions 2021-09 or later)

      - wait: exit

After entering a number, or after skipping every menu item, it waits 

until the button is released then exits the menu.  It should return to 

whatever mode the light was in before entering the config menu.

Ramp Config Menu

----------------

While the light is on in a ramping mode, click 7 times (but hold the 

final click) to access the config menu for the current ramp.

Or, to access the ramp config for Simple UI, make sure the Simple UI is 

not active, then do a 10H action from Off.

For smooth ramping mode, there are three menu options:

  1. Floor.  (default = 1/150)

  2. Ceiling.  (default = 120/150)

  3. Ramp speed.  (default = 1, fastest speed)

For the stepped ramping mode, there are three menu options:

  1. Floor.  (default = 20/150)

  2. Ceiling.  (default = 120/150)

  3. Number of steps.  (default = 7)

For the Simple UI mode, there are four menu options.  The first three 

are the same as stepped ramping mode.

  1. Floor.  (default = 20/150)

  2. Ceiling.  (default = 120/150)

  3. Number of steps.  (default = 5)

  4. Turbo style.  (default = 0, no turbo)

Default values are different for each model of flashlight.  The numbers 

above are only examples.

To configure the floor level, click the button equal to the number of 

ramp levels (out of 150) at which the floor should be.  To set the 

lowest possible level, click once.

To configure the ceiling level, each click goes one level lower.  So 1 

click sets the highest possible level, 2 clicks is the 2nd-highest, 3 

clicks is the 3rd-highest level, etc.  To set the default of 120/150, 

click 31 times.

When configuring the number of steps, the value can be anything from 1 

to 150.  A value of 1 is a special case.  It places the step halfway 

between the floor and ceiling levels.

Version Check Mode

------------------

This allows people to see which version of the firmware is installed on 

their light.  The format for this is (usually) 12 digits -- a model 

number and a date.  BBPP.YYYY-MM-DD

  - BB: Brand ID

  - PP: Product ID

  - YYYY: Year

  - MM: Month

  - DD: Day

Versions before 2023-05-30 used YYYYMMDDBBPP format.

Anduril 1 used only YYYYMMDD format, or none at all.

The date is when the firmware was compiled.  If the vendor did not set 

this value, it defaults to 1969-07-20, the date of first human contact 

with the moon.  However, it might not be a date at all; some vendors may 

specify a completely different type of value here.

The brand/product values are also known as the model number.  These are 

hard-coded in the source code for each light's build target, and can be 

looked up in the "MODELS" file or by using the "make models" command.

Protection Features

-------------------

Anduril includes low voltage protection (LVP) and thermal regulation.

LVP makes the light step down to a lower level when the battery is low, 

and if the light is already at the lowest level, it shuts itself off.  

This activates at 2.8V.  LVP adjustments happen suddenly, in large 

steps.

Thermal regulation attempts to keep the light from overheating, and 

otherwise adjusts output to stay as close as possible to the 

user-configured temperature limit.  Thermal adjustments happen 

gradually, in steps so small they are difficult for humans to perceive.

Aux LEDs / Button LEDs

----------------------

Some lights have aux LEDs or button LEDs.  These can be configured to do 

different things while the main emitters are off.  There is one aux LED 

mode for the regular "off" mode, and another aux LED mode for "lockout" 

mode.  This allows the user to see at a glance whether the light is 

locked.

Aux LED modes typically include:

  - Off

  - Low

  - High

  - Blinking

To configure the aux LEDs, go to the mode you want to configure and then 

click the button 7 times.  This should change the aux LEDs to the next 

mode supported on this light.

  - 7C: Next aux LED mode.

If the aux LEDs can change color, there are additional actions to change 

the color.  It is the same as above, but hold the button on the last 

click and then let go when the desired color is reached.

  - 7H: Next aux LED color.

On most lights, the colors follow this sequence:

  - Red

  - Yellow (Red+Green)

  - Green

  - Cyan (Green+Blue)

  - Blue

  - Purple (Blue+Red)

  - White (Red+Green+Blue)

  - Disco (fast random colors)

  - Rainbow (cycles through all colors in order)

  - Voltage (uses color to display battery charge)

In voltage mode, the colors follow the same sequence, in the same order 

as a rainbow...  with red indicating a low battery and purple indicating 

a full battery.

For lights with a button LED, the button LED typically stays on while 

the main emitters are on.  Its brightness level is set in a way which 

mirrors the main LED -- off, low, or high.

For lights with a RGB button LED, the button LED indicates battery 

charge during use in the same manner as the aux LED voltage mode.

For lights with front-facing aux LEDs, the aux LEDs typically stay off 

when the main emitters are on, and when the light is otherwise awake.  

The aux LEDs on most lights only turn on when the light is asleep.

When a light has a single-color aux LED and no RGB, it fast-blinks the 

aux LED in "off" modes when voltage is low.

Misc Config Menu

----------------

Some models may have an extra config menu for settings which don't fit 

anywhere else.  This menu is located at "Off -> 9H" in the advanced UI.

These settings are, in order:

  - Tint ramp style:  (on some lights)

    0 : smooth ramp (blend channels in any proportion)

    1 : middle tint only

    2 : extreme tints only (only one channel active at a time)

    3+: stepped ramp with 3+ steps

  - Jump Start level:  (on some lights)

    Some lights are prone to starting up slowly at low levels, so they 

    have an option to "jump start" the engine by pulsing a higher power 

    level for a few milliseconds when changing from off to a low level.  

    This setting specifies how bright that pulse should be.

    The value can be from 1 to 150, but is usually between 20 and 50.

These settings are hardware-specific and may not be present on all 

lights.  The number of settings in the Misc Config Menu depends on the 

hardware model and the firmware version.

Channel Modes (a.k.a. Tint Ramping or Multi Channel controls)

-------------------------------------------------------------

Some lights have more than one set of LEDs which can be adjusted to 

change the beam color, shape, or other properties.  These lights have 

features like tint ramping and channel modes.

On these models, there are some global button mappings which work at all 

times unless they're overridden by the mode the light is in:

  - 3C: Next channel mode

  - 3H: Adjust current channel mode (ramp tint, for example)

  - 9H: Channel mode config menu

Details depend on the exact type of light used.  For example, if a light 

has LEDs in cool white, warm white, and red... that light might have a 

few channel modes:

  - White blend (adjustable CCT / tint ramping)

  - Red only

  - Auto-tint

On a light like this, the user could press 3C to rotate through these 

different channel modes...  white, then red, then auto, then back to 

white.

Additionally, in the "white blend" mode, the user could press 3H to 

manually adjust the balance between warm white and cool white.

Finally, if the user decides they don't want all of the modes, they can 

turn some off.  Press 9H (while on) to start the channel mode config 

menu.  To disable the auto-tint mode, for example, it is the 3rd mode...  

so wait for the 3rd blink, then release the button.  Then at the prompt, 

enter a value of 0 (wait for the prompt to time out without clicking 

anything).  Afterward, the auto tint mode should no longer be in the 

channel mode rotation.  To turn the mode back on later, do the same 

thing, but enter a value of 1 (click 1 time at the prompt).

A light can have many different channel modes, so don't be shy about 

turning off any modes you don't use.  It makes all the others easier to 

reach.

If you turn off channel modes until only 1 remains, the "Ramp -> 3C" 

action reverts to its single-channel behavior -- switching between a 

smooth or stepped brightness ramp.  Additionally, when a channel mode 

has nothing to adjust with 3H, the 3H action also reverts to its 

single-channel behavior -- momentary turbo.

The Misc Config Menu (Off -> 9H) may also have a setting to choose a 

tint ramp style.  There are a few styles available, by entering 

different numbers into that config menu:

  0: smooth ramp

  1: middle tint only

  2: extreme tints only

  3+: stepped ramp with 3+ steps

This setting only applies to modes with channel ramping (i.e. tint 

ramping), and only when that mode uses the default 3H event handler.  

Custom channel modes may work differently.
