1.  To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up procedures  
 

on pages 5-6 as well as the set-up procedures included with

 

your DMX controller. 

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

the last fixture.

3.  Press the MENU button until “Addr” is shown in the display. Press  
 

the UP or DOWN button to change the DMX address. Once you  

 

have found your desired address press the ENTER button.

4.  The Energy DMX™ uses two DMX channels. See page 11 for   
 

detailed description of the DMX traits. Use your DMX controller 

 

to activate the various built-in patterns. 

5.  For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual included  
 

with your DMX controller.

 

NOTE:

 If running in Master/Slave address configuration while using a  

 

 

DMX controller, follow the DMX address setttings on page 10 

 

 

for either a 4-light show or 8-light show.

Master-Slave  Operation  (Built-In  Programs): 

This  mode  will 

allow you to link up to 16 units together and operate without a control-
ler. In Master-Slave mode, the units will strobe to a built-in program. 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 standard XLR microphone cables, daisy chain your units  
 

together via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remem- 

 

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

 

connector is the output. For longer cable runs we suggest a    

 

terminator at the last fixture.

2.  Choose a unit to function as the Master and set the DMX address  
 

to 1.  

3.   Follow the DMX addresses on page 10 for either a 4-light show  
 

or 8-light show.
