Universal DMX Control: 

This function allows you to use a Elation® 

universal  DMX-512 controller to control the chases and patterns, 

dimmer  and  strobe.  A  DMX  controller  allows  you  to  create  unique 

programs  tailored  to  your  individual  needs.  The  Dotz  TPar  System 

has 5 DMX channel modes; a 3 Channel Mode, 5 Channel Mode, 9 

Channel Mode, 12 Channel Mode, & 18 Channel Mode. See pages 

14-20 for the DMX channel modes and traits. 

1.  This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s 

  traits with a standard DMX 512 controller such as the 

 Elation® Show Designer™ or the Elation® DMX Operator.™

2.  To run your fixture in DMX mode, follow directions on page 8 to  

  set your DMX address and DMX Channel mode.  

3.  Plug in the fixture via the XLR connections to any standard DMX  

  controller.  

4.  For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on  

  the last fixture.

Master-Slave Operation: 

This function will allow you to link up to 16 

units together and operate without a controller. The units will be sound 

activated. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the controlling 

unit and the others will react to the controlling units programs. Any unit 

can act as a Master or as a Slave.

1.   Using approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units together  

  via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the   

  Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector is  

  the output. The first unit in the chain (master) will use the female  

  XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male  

  XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina- 

  tor  at the last fixture.

2.   On the Master unit, designate the unit as a “Master” unit following  

  the instructions on page 10. Then set your desired operating mode. 

3.   On the slave units press the MODE button until “Slave Mode” is  

 displayed.

4.   The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
