Improvements
- Improved temperature detection and reporting behavior across the fixture.
- Adjusted low temperature protection behavior to improve fixture operation and stability in cold environments.
- Modified fan control behavior to improve stability and reduce unnecessary interruptions during normal operation.
- Improved lighting effects logic to prevent excessive power draw while effects are running.
- Improved high-speed photography behavior across lighting modes to ensure more consistent output during mode transitions.
- Improved error handling behavior so minor or non-critical errors do not interrupt normal fixture operation or the boot process.
Bug Fixes

- Fixed an issue where HSI mode did not function correctly when controlled via Sidus Link Pro.
- Fixed issues where the fixture could flash or emit light at 0 percent brightness during certain effects or lighting mode transitions.
- Fixed an issue where switching lighting modes during high-speed photography could result in unintended flash behavior.
- Fixed an issue where RDM functionality could repeatedly restart when a network cable was connected on first power-on.
- Fixed an issue where Bluetooth link detection could fail during configuration in specific modes.
- Fixed an issue where the DMX address could incorrectly be set to 0.
