ELECTRICAL INSTAL ADDRESSING
Important: The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only,
according to the regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.
Electrical installation for 1 standalone unit:
Just insert the mains cable. The unit starts working immediately in stand-alone mode.
Remark1:
You can connect a CA-8 remote controller to the unit if you want to have more control. Refer to
“how to operate the unit” to learn how to do this.
Remark2:
if there’s no output, please make sure to set the unit in master mode and set the blackout mode
to “NO” (see previous chapter)
Electrical installation for two or more units in master/slave:
Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The first unit
in the chain will automatically act as master, the other units will act automatically as slaves.
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Done!
Remark:
You can connect a CA-8 remote controller to the master unit if you want to have more control
over the master/slave operation
Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-master/slave:
In this mode the units will show a synchronized show, working to the rhythm of the beat but you can still
control some functions on the master by 1 or 4 DMX-channels.
To assure proper operation you need an optional “Mini DMX-SPLITTER” (order code: 4630) to isolate
the master/slave line from the main DMX-line, see drawing.
Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The first unit
in the chain will act as the master, the other units will act automatically as slaves.
Set the master to 1MSL or 4MSL channel mode (see previous chapter). Check the DMX-chart below to
see the difference between both channel modes.
For the DMX-controller the master and his slaves can now be considered as 1 virtual effect that needs a
start address so it can be controlled as any other DMX-
unit in the DMX chain: see “DMX Address” in the
chapter “Main Menu” to see how you can set the DMX-start address.
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Set the DMX-controller according to the DMX-chart below.
Done!
Remark:
in order to work well to the rhythm of the music, make sure that the option “Sound State” on the
master is set to “On” (see previous chapter)
