OPERATION
Connect your Kam LED Superflower 1 DMX to the mains supply 240V AC, the unit is now ready to go.
STAND ALONE OPERATION
In stand alone mode you can use the Kam LED Superflower 1 DMX without a controller.
SOUND TO LIGHT OPERATION
To use the unit in sound controlled mode with no controller set DIP switches 1-9 to OFF and DIP switch 10 to ON.
The unit features a built-in microphone which provides the sound to light function. You can adjust the sensitivity of
the mic with the rotary control on the rear panel.
MASTER / SLAVE OPERATION
The master/slave function enables several units to be synchronized and controlled by one Master unit. On the rear
panel you can find XLR male and XLR female sockets, these can be used for connecting several devices.
Choose the unit which is to control the effects, this unit then works as the Master and controls all other Slave units
which are connected to it via DMX cables. Connect an XLR cable to the DMX out of the Master unit to the DMX IN
socket of the slave unit. Continue linking other units in the same way, linking the DMX OUT of the last connected
unit to the DMX IN of the next unit. Set all DIP switches to OFF in order to determine the Master unit. Set DIP
switches 1 and 10 to ON in order to determine the slave devices.
DMX CONTROL OPERATION
You can control the LEDs individually via a DMX controller. Every DMX channel has a different occupation with
different features. For DMX controlled operation set DIP switch 10 to ON.
Building a serial DMX chain
Connect the DMX output of the first unit in the chain to the DMX input of the next unit using an XLR cable. Always
connect one output with the input of the next unit until all units are connected.
DMX addressing
Each device occupies 3 channels. To ensure that the control signals are properly directed to each device, the unit
requires addressing. This has to be adjusted for every single unit by changing the DIP switches as set out in the
table below. The starting address is defined as the first channel from which the device will respond to the
controller. Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each unit correctly
and independently from the other units in the DMX data link.
DMX control
After having addressed all the units, you may now start operating them via your DMX controller.
