Customize flash patterns, brightness and Boost

You can adjust how your Lumos lights flash and how bright they are within each scene. Choose an existing flash pattern, create your own rhythm, or use Boost to set a supported device to maximum brightness.

A scene contains the settings for your whole setup. A flash pattern controls how an individual light flashes within that scene.

Available controls depend on your device and the light you are editing.

Open a device’s lighting settings

1. Turn on your device and connect it to the Lumos app.
2. Open Customize.
3. Select the scene you want to edit.
4. Tap the helmet or light you want to configure.

For helmets with separate front and rear controls, open the lighting section you want to change. You can use different settings for the front and rear lights.

If you need to create a scene first, see Customize a scene and apply changes to other devices.

Choose a flash pattern

1. Open the light’s flash-pattern settings.
2. Select a pattern from the available choices.
3. Watch the on-screen preview to check its rhythm.
4. If you are editing an active scene, tap Push to device to apply the selected pattern.

Depending on your device, choices may include Always On, High Visibility, and Battery Saver.

These are lighting-pattern choices—not the three active scene slots. For example, you can use an Always On pattern for a helmet’s front light within a scene that uses flashing rear lights.

The on-screen preview shows the selected effect. It does not mean the change has already reached your device.

Preview a pattern, then tap Push to device to apply it to an active scene.

Create your own flash pattern

1. In the light’s settings, tap + under Custom Flash Pattern.
2. Give the pattern a name and tap Done.
3. Edit the blocks in the Flash Rhythm strip.
4. Watch the preview as you adjust the rhythm.
5. Tap Done to save the pattern and return to the pattern list.
6. For an active scene, tap Push to device to apply it.

How the rhythm editor works

The strip represents a repeating two-second sequence. The moving line shows which part of the sequence is playing.

• White or colored blocks: the light is on.
• Dark blocks: the light is off.
• Tap a block: switch that part of the sequence on or off.
• Press and hold an illuminated block: split it into smaller sections for finer control. Press and hold a split section to combine it again.

Try alternating short flashes with longer pauses, then watch the preview to see how the sequence repeats.

To edit a saved custom pattern, press and hold its name in the custom-pattern list.

Done saves your pattern in the app. Push to device applies it to the selected light in an active scene.

Build a repeating flash pattern by editing the on-and-off blocks, then save and apply it.

Adjust brightness

In the device’s settings for the selected scene:

1. Turn Boost off if it is enabled.
2. Move the brightness slider to your preferred level.

For an active scene, brightness changes are sent to the connected device immediately. For a draft scene, they stay in the app until you make that scene active.

Brightness is part of the scene’s settings. Changing it here does not change the brightness you have chosen for other scenes.

Use Boost

On supported devices, Boost sets the brightness to 100% for the scene you are editing.

• Turn Boost on to use maximum brightness.
• Turn Boost off to return to the maximum regular brightness, which is lower than Boost brightness—equivalent to setting the brightness slider to maximum.

Boost is a saved setting for that scene, not a timed burst. It stays enabled for the scene until you turn it off, including when you leave the page or reopen the app.

Moving the brightness slider to 100% does not automatically turn Boost on.

As with the brightness slider, Boost changes affect a connected device immediately when editing an active scene. In a draft, the setting is saved for later.

Change colors or special animations

Some devices offer a Color Library, special animations, or both.

When these options are available, select the color or effect you want and check the preview. In an active scene, use Push to device to apply the change.

Not every device supports the same colors or animations. A control available on one model may not appear on another.

Colors and special animations are individual device settings. They are not copied to other devices through Apply, even between devices of the same model.

When do my changes reach the devices?

A draft does not have a Push to device button. To use it on your lights, move it into one of the three active scene positions through Arrange Scenes, then tap Done.

See Save drafts and arrange your active scenes.

Use a pattern on other lights

Saved custom flash patterns can be selected again for other scenes and supported lights in the same app.

Saving a pattern does not automatically apply it to every device.

To share supported changes within a scene, return from the device’s settings and choose Apply when prompted. For the copying rules and full procedure, see Customize a scene and apply changes to other devices.

Why doesn’t my light match the preview?

Check that:

• The device is connected.
• You applied the selected effect with Push to device, rather than only saving or previewing it.
• You are editing an active scene, not a draft.
• The device is using the scene you edited.

To switch to another active scene, press the physical power button once on a helmet or light. The app displays the current scene; it does not switch scenes.

If the result still does not match, see My devices aren’t syncing or my scene changes aren’t showing.
