FOS AuraZoom FX IP65

That is an absolute monster of a production fixture. This specification list describes a highly advanced, touring-grade hybrid wash / beam / strobe light built to handle punishing festival environments while giving lighting programmers insane levels of creative control.

Here is a breakdown of what these specs mean in the real world, including the answer to your question about the beam vs. wash capabilities.

Beam or Wash?

Amazing motorized zoom 5-27 degrees (beam ? Wash)

It is both. A 5-to-27-degree motorized linear zoom makes this a true hybrid fixture:

• At 5 degrees, the light columns tightly into a sharp, piercing mid-air Beam effect, perfect for aerial geometric patterns, high-contrast ballyhoos, and tracking punches.
• At 27degrees, the optics spread and smoothly blend the colors to create a wide, homogeneous Wash, perfect for covering large stage areas, scenery, or washing a band in rich color.

Light Source & Color Mixing

This fixture splits its massive 980-watt power budget into two distinct layers of eye candy:

1. The Main Engine (The Muscle)

• 18 x 50-watt LEDs (RGB + Lime): Instead of standard RGBW (White), this uses a Lime emitter. Lime bridges the spectral gap between Green and Red, drastically increasing the fixture's color rendering index (CRI), making whites look more natural, and making yellows, oranges, and pastel colors incredibly vibrant and bright.

2. The Aura Network (The Eye Candy)

• 135 x 1-watt Aura LEDs (CW + WW): These Cold White and Warm White LEDs surround the primary lenses. This allows you to run two separate lighting looks simultaneously—for instance, a deep saturated blue stage wash from the main engine, overlaid with a stark, blinding warm-white strobe pattern on the face of the light.

Control & Programming Power

This light is built for heavy-duty pixel-mapping consoles .

• 27 Layers + 18 Main LEDs: You have individual pixel control over every single one of the 18 main engines, plus 27 independently controllable zones/groups of the background Aura array.
• DMX Footprints (31CH to 147CH): * Running in 31-channel mode will give you basic, global control over colors, zoom, and built-in macro chases (great when you're short on console universes).
  • Running in 147-channel mode unlocks raw, pixel-by-pixel mapping for high-end volumetric stage designs and complex media server integration.
• Network Ready: It natively speaks Art-Net and sACN over network lines, alongside standard DMX, RDM (for remote addressing/monitoring), and integrated Wireless DMX.

Hardware & Deployment Features

• NFC Wireless App Config: A massive timesaver for rental houses and stage crews. You can hold your phone up to the fixture's base and change the DMX address, network settings, or mode via an app without ever plugging the light into power. You can pre-address an entire truckload of lights while they are still sitting inside their road cases.
• IP65 Weatherproof & Weather-sealed Chassis: Completely dust-tight and protected against rain/water jets from any angle. It utilizes sealed power and data connectors, meaning it can live on an outdoor festival truss or stadium roof for weeks without needing a rain hood.
• 180-Degree Tilt: Perfect for a panel or bar layout, allowing it to transition seamlessly from an overhead stage down-wash to a blinding crowd-facing strobe.
• Weight 24kg This weight reflects the heavy-duty cooling fins, rugged housing, internal motors, and weatherproofing required to keep a 980-watt light cool without sacrificing its sealed IP rating.
