Getting the LED Mega Panel to Strobe

NOt all modes support strobing. 14 channel mode and 26 channel mode both support strobing. The other modes do not support strobing.

I think you'll need to set your DMX modes differently than you already have them set up.

Make sure you also set your color(s) and your dimmer values so you can see the strobing as well.

All of this information is in the manual.

If you wish to have some kind of control over the light you need to have a DMX controller. I really don't think a white strobe was built into any of the internal programs or functions s this unit is geared towards more of a color wash type fixture.
Sincerely,

I would not want to run a non-controlled light in strobe mode unless I had that fixture on a switcher pack. That's just asking for some potential problems.

To the best of my knowledge, no manufacturor makes a fixture outside of a strobe, that will operate strobing in stand-alone mode. Too much liability.

Yikes I have no DMX controller - I'm just using this for school discos - can you advise of the cheapest DMX controller that would work? Many Thanks!

DMX operator 192. Good starter controller. how ever you will be limited too 16 dmx channels per fixture. so the mega panel in a channel mode like 24 etc will not be an option.

In the UK they are around £180, anything that would do it that would be a little cheaper? (Sub £100/ $150) - Thanks for your help

I have no idea what the pricing would be in the UK. Tell you what you find one for that price and let me know what it is as long as it is from ADJ I can let you know if it is good or not.
Sincerely,

Well, the DMX Operator would be a step down sort of but would be cheap. They won't get much cheaper than that unless you want a total trash controller.

Another option, if you're looking at those sort of dollars, might be going with MyDMX. For not much more, you get a TON more features.
