The  chart  below  details  the  DMX  traits  in  depth.  The  individual  trait 
can  only  be  accessed  by  using  an  universal  DMX  controller.  Note: 
“Lamp” in channel 1 refers to the two power sockets located on the 
side of the motor (these sockets are intended to be used with lamps 
to light up the mirror ball).

The  charts  below  details  the  Master/Slave  setting  for  Master/Slave 
configuration.  Use  this  configuration  when  you  will  be  using  two  or 
more fixtures in a Master/Slave configuration. Note: The “Master” set-
tings should only be used once at the first motor, using the “master” 
setting more than once in the chain may result in erratic operation.
