Master-Slave operation:
This function will allows you to link units together to run in a Master-
Slave mode. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the con-
trolling unit and the others will react to the controlling units built-in
programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave however, only
one unit can be programmed to act as the “Master.”
Master-Slave Connections and Settings:
1. Daisy chain your units via the XLR connector on the rear of
the unit. Use standard XLR microphone cables to link your
units together. Remember that 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.
2. You will also have to link the power cords to each other, as you
did with the XLR cables.
3. Using the Master unit, choose your desired mode and connect
the “Slave” unit or units.
4. Set the “Slave” unit(s) to the first address mode. So all “Slave”
units display “1001”. They will now follow the “Master” unit.

Universal DMX Control:
This function allows you to use a Elation
®

for a detailed description of the DMX traits.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up procedures
on pages 5-6 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 instructions on page 8 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
