Fixture linking (Master/Slave Mode)

1.  Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the 

DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of 

the first fixture.

2.  Connect the end of the cable coming from 

the first fixture which will have a (female) 3 pin 

connector to the input connector of the next fixture 

consisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then, 

proceed to connect from the output as stated above 

to the input of the following fixture and so on.

A quick note:  

Often, 

the setup for Master-

Slave and Standalone 

operation requires that 

the first fixture in the 

chain be initialized for 

this purpose via either 

settings in the control 

panel or DIP-switches. 

Secondarily, the fixtures 

that follow may also 

require a slave setting. 

Check the “

Operating Adjustments

” section in this manual for 

complete instructions for this type of setup and configuration.

Mounting & Rigging

This fixture may be mounted in any SAFE position provided there is 

enough room for ventilation.

It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the 

fixture using a suitable “C” or “O” type clamp.  The clamp should be 

rated to hold at least 10x the fixture’s weight to ensure structural 

stability.  Do not mount to surfaces with unknown strength, and ensure 

properly “rated” rigging is used when mounting fixtures overhead.

Adjust the angle of the fixture by loosening both knobs and tilting the 

fixture. After finding the desired position, retighten both knobs.

•  When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp 

replacement access (if applicable) and routine maintenance.

•  Safety cables MUST ALWAYS be used.
•  Never mount in places where the fixture will be exposed to rain, 

high humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.
