Operation Modes
Please find a more detailed explanation of the differences between all available Operation Modes below and
how they are affected by the menu functions listed above.
Auto:
In Auto Mode, you can select one of the Operation Modes in which the device is not dependent on external
factors such as DMX signals, master signals or sound. Here, one of the basic programmes can be selected
and you can set the alternating speed or correct the intensity.
Sound:
Sound-controlled mode, or ‘sound mode’, uses a built-in microphone that registers the beat of music and
runs a program based on this. For example, the device can move in synchronisation with any music,
providing an automatic light-show.
When no music is detected or only the high-end (treble) is present in the music due to a break, the device
will continue its program at a slower pace. As such, the light show does not appear to come to a standstill. As
soon as sound is registered by the microphone again, the device will continue its program in synchronisation
with the beat.
Slave
In Slave Mode, it’s possible to connect several devices of the same type with one another so that they
perform exactly the same movements and functions at the same time. Therefore, single devices do not
respond individually (or chaotically) and this results in a completely coordinated show. In theory, by adding a
DMX booster, an unlimited number of Slave devices can be linked to one Master device. In general and
without the use of a DMX booster, it should be possible to connect four armatures without any problems.
Please note: If you link devices of a different type or brand (even if they appear to have the same function),
chaotic or strange behaviour can occur. This is often because certain functions are linked to incorrect
channels. This applies to DMX lighting of all types and brands.
DMX
The DMX Mode is the most comprehensive mode for optimum control over all functions of this device. Via
DMX, it is possible to control either a limited or large amount of functions via a DMX controller or DMX
software.
The device can be set in different channel modes so that the channel layout (included below) is in alignment
with the layout of your DMX circuit and with the functions you want to use.
