Master-Slave Operation (Sound Active): 

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 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. 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  

 

terminator at the last fixture.

2.  Follow the dipswitch chart on page 10.
