The mode button cycles through all the different modes. Unless there's reason to use different modes, the best way to use them will be with one LED in Dimming mode and the rest in Slave - the solid colour can then be set on one and everything else will match.
==== Programs ====
The screen will show "P01" or something similar. On "P01" different solid colours can be selected by pressing 'Setup' and cycling through CL0 - CL7. On "P02" - "P10" different programs are outputted. The manual describes each program and colour.
==== Auto Run ====
According to the manual, it "will auto run between built-in programs P02 - P10". Not worth using unless you really want random lighting. Screen shows "AUT".
==== Slave ====
This is almost similar to DMX, but not quite as versatile. For it to work, all the LEDs need to be connected together like in DMX, but don't connect a lighting control system. Then, put all the LEDs except the first one in the chain on slave mode. They will then all do what the first LED is doing. Useful if you want to run several LEDs on the same mode but don't want to put the mode on each one individually.
==== Sound Active ====
The LED does stuff in response to sound. Kinda useful if you want an impromptu Willow for some reason. Screen shows something like "SE0" - "SE9" with 0 being least sensitive and 9 being most.
==== Dimming ====
Probably the most useful of the modes, this allows a certain colour and brightness to be set on the LED. Pressing 'setup' will cycle through red, green and blue, with the 'up' and 'down' buttons changing the value for each.
== Rigging ==
The Trico's can be rigged just like any other lantern - indeed they should be rigged exactly like the other lanterns, with complete clamp set and safety chain. Although do remember they need considerably more cabling.
