 UC3 Controller 

(not included)

 

may be used to  

 

 

control different functions including blackout.

Auto Mode: 

1.   Put dipswitches 1 & 2 in the “On” position to run Auto Mode.

Master-Slave Operation (Sound Active): 

This mode will 

allow you to link up to 16 units together and operate without a control-
ler. In Master-Slave mode, the units will react to sound. 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. For longer cable runs we suggest a    

 

terminator at the last fixture.

2.  Choose a unit to function as the Master and set dipswitch #1 to  
 

the “On” position.. This unit must be the first unit in line. Then 

sim- 

 

ply daisy chain the units together using XLR cables. 

3.  

For the Slave units, put any dipswitch in the “On” position, except  

 

the #1 dipswitch.   

 

The #1 dispswitch must stay in the “Off” position on all Slave  
units.

 

Note:  When  running  fixtures  in  Master/Slave  configura-

tion  dipswitch  10  in  the  “On”  position  will  make  the  fixture  do

the  opposite  to  the  other  fixture.  Example:  Four  fixtures  linked 
together. On fixtures 1 and 3 put dipswitch 10 in the “On” posi-
tion. Now fixtures 1 & 3 will run the same and fixtures 2 & 4 will 
run opposite. This makes a great light show.

DMX Mode:

Operating through a DMX controller give the user the freedom to cre- 
    ate their own programs tailored to their own individual needs. 

1.  This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s 

 

traits with a standard DMX 512 controller such as the 

 

Elation

®

 Show Designer™ or the Elation

®

 DMX Operator.™

2.  The Tri Pearl LED™ uses three DMX channels. See the bottom of  
 

this page for the DMX traits.

3.  To run your fixture in DMX mode, plug in the fixture via the XLR

 

connections to any standard DMX controller. Set your desired   

 

DMX address following the set-up specifications that come with  

 

your DMX controller.
