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.
1. The Matrix Beam LED has 3 DMX channel modes; 1 Channel
mode, 4 Channel mode, and 25 Channel mode. To set the chan-
nel mode see page p. See pages 15-17 for detailed description of
the DMX traits.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up procedures
on pages 5-7 as well as the set-up specifications that are
included with your DMX controller.
3. Use the controller’s faders to control the various DMX fixture traits.
4. This will allow you to create your own programs.
5. Follow the instruction on page 9 to set the DMX address.
6. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on
the last fixture.
7. For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual included
with your DMX controller.

Master-Slave Configuration
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 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. On the Master unit find your desired operating mode.
3. On the slave units
follow the instructions on page 9.
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.
Matrix Beam LED Power Cord Daisy Chain
With this feature you can connect the fixtures to one another
using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can be
connected is 3 fixtures maximum. After 3 fixtures you will need
to use a new power outlet. They must be the same fixtures. DO
NOT mix fixtures.
