Introduction

This guide will walk you through how to use the wireless remote with your Rockville Battery Par 61 Wash Light. Whether you're setting up for a party or adjusting your light display, these steps are easy to follow—even if you’re new to lighting equipment.

Requirements:

• Rockville Battery Par 61 Wash Light
• Included Wireless IR Remote
• IR Mode Enabled

Setup Guide

A.) Enable IR Mode on the Light

To ensure the remote works with the light:

• Go to the IR mode on the light's menu.
• Make sure IR mode is set to "ON".
  • If it's set to "OFF", the remote will not function.

B.) Understand the Remote Functions

Here are the main buttons and their functions:

1. Power Controls
   • ON / OFF: Turns the LED bulbs on or off. 
     • Note: This does not power off the entire light. Use the switch on the back of the unit to turn the light off completely.
2. Brightness and Speed
   • UP / DOWN buttons: 
     • Adjust brightness when using solid colors.
     • Adjust mode speed when in Auto, Strobe, or Fade modes.
     • Switch between sound modes (there are four sound modes available).
3. Color Options
   • Choose from base colors: 
     • Red, Green, Blue, White, Yellow, Amber, UV-Ultraviolet
   • Use the numbered buttons to select custom color combinations.
4. Mode Options
   • AUTO: Cycles through presets automatically.
   • STROBE: Creates a flashing light effect.
   • FADE: Smoothly transitions between colors.
   • SOUND: Reacts to music or sound in the room.
     • Use UP / DOWN to toggle through the 4 different sound mode variations.

C.) Use Proper Remote Positioning

• The remote uses IR (infrared) technology.
• Point the remote directly at the light for it to work.
• For multiple lights, aim the remote at each unit individually for settings to apply.

Troubleshooting & FAQs

Q: My remote isn’t working with the light. What should I do?
A: Check the IR mode on the light and ensure it is turned ON.

Q: Can I turn the entire light off with the remote?
A: No. The remote only turns off the LEDs, not the main power. Use the power switch on the back of the light.

Q: Why aren’t all lights responding at once?
A: IR requires a direct line of sight. Point the remote at each light individually if they’re not all in the same position.

Conclusion

Using the wireless remote with your Rockville Battery Par 61 Wash Light is quick and intuitive once IR mode is enabled. You can change colors, adjust brightness and speed, or switch lighting modes with just a few button presses.
