Introduction: 

This unit is five channel DMX intelligent scanner that 

may be easily converted to an intelligent color changer by removing 
the mirror unit.  This unit can also run as a stand alone, sound-active 
unit,  or  in  a  Master/Slave  configuration  as  either  a  scanner  or  color 
changer. The ScanTron

 comes with several build in programs and is 

best used in multiples of four. When used as a stand alone unit or when 
used  in  multiples  linked  in  a  master/slave  configuration  the  optional 
IRC/1 controller may be used. The optional controller will access dif-
ferent programs and control a blackout function. 

For best results use 

fog or special effects smoke to enhance the beams projections.
