Transferring programs between two Auto-Mate/DMX™ units:
This unit allows you to transfer data from Auto-Mate/DMX™ to Auto-
Mate/DMX™ for back-up or data swap purposes. For this procedure you
will need to construct or purchase a male to male 3-pin XLR cable.
1. Link your two units together via the XLR connections on the rear of
each unit.
2. Set both controllers to the Record Mode, see page 11
“Activating
the Record-Mode.”
3. On the “Master” controller, the controller that will act as the send-
ing unit, press the Function Key (5) until the red function LED indi-
cator begins to glow.
4. On the “Master” controller, the sending controller unit, press
both the Fast and Slow function key at the same time. The program
LEDs on both units will begin to flash and chase. This will indicate
programs are being transferred successfully.
5. The process is completed when all the program LEDs stop chas-
ing.
If the data transfer was successful, the same program LEDs will be
glowing on both units. If the same program LED are not on, there was
an upload error. Please repeat this procedure once again.
