  FREQ 16 Strobe                                              UC3 Control

Master-Slave Operation: 

This function will allow you to link up to 16 

units together and operate without a controller. In Master-Slave opera-

tion 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 appropriate XLR 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 

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

 

con nector  only.  For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at  

  the last fixture.

2.   Set the Master unit to your desired operational mode. After you  

  have set your desired operational mode, press the MENU button  

 until 

SLND

” is displayed, and Press ENTER. Use the UP or DOWN  

  buttons to find the “

MAST

” setting and press ENTER.

3.  On the slave units 

tap the MENU button until “

SLND

” is display- 

  ed, and Press ENTER. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to switch  

  between either “

SL 1

” or “

SL 2

”. Once you have made your choice,  

  press ENTER. For more info see page 8.

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

5.  The optional UC3 Controller (not included) may be used to con- 

  trol different functions including blackout. See UC3 Control below.
