of radio equipment is prohibited.
›Do not look directly into the LED. This can cause
damage to the eyes.
General
›The ApeLight mini has a power LED below the lens.
Warning: This LED is very bright! Place the device
about 30cm before a wall to achieve beautiful
lighting effects.
›The device has 20 built-in programs with fixed or
changing colors. The speed of the color chase can
be changed. The lowest level stops the effect.

purpose, a separate wireless DMX radio transmitter
(MobiLight4 / W APE transceiver) is needed.
›The unit can be assigned to one of 4 groups. By
default the device belongs to group 1. The remote
control (respectively the W-APE Transceiver) sends

›The device has a build-in microphone. It can be
activated by the remote control to create sound to
light effects.

Battery State/Charging
›If the brightness of the ApeLight mini is reduced to
zero (by "Blackout" or "Dimmer" button of the
remote control), the device will show the battery
state at low brightness:
oLED glows green: battery level above 50%
oLED glows red: battery level below 50%
Note: The calculation of the battery level needs at
least one full charge/discharge cycle.
›If the battery is completely empty, the device will
blink 3 times red and turn itself off.
›Connect the provided power supply (5V to 18V DC) or
the USB charging cable to the connector in the
bottom of the can.
›The ApeLight mini flashes red while charging. As
soon as the battery is fully charged, the device will
flash green.
›The device can also be used while a power supply is
connected. In that case the battery will not be
charged (or very slowly).

Extended Control
Sound-To-Light with Sound Master
A "W-APE-Transceiver" makes it possible to create
sound to light effects on multiple ApeLight minis with a
single microphone as source.
›Select "Sound Master" as "Control Mode" at the W-
APE-Transceiver. As soon as this mode is active, all
ApeLight minis within the same group will use that
device as common source.
›An ApeLight mini will switch back to its internal
microphone, if the transmitter is turned off.
Control by a light desk with DMX
You can control the ApeLight mini also via DMX from a
professional light desk. To transmit the data wireless,
you need a W-APE Transceiver (or a MobiLight4).
›Connect the W-APE Transceiver via a DMX cable to
the light desk.
›Select "DMX" as "Control Mode" at the W-APE-
Transceiver. As soon as this mode is active, all
ApeLight minis within the same group will use the
DMX data.
›If a ApeLight mini does not receive any DMX data for
more than 10 seconds, it will automatically switch
back to the remote control mode.

APE Transceiver will switch back to the standard
menu.
