UTILITY/
SETUP
EXTERN
SLAVE
Switching on the master desk
starts the communication between the two desks. To allow
synchronous operation, the chaser and sequence programs of the
Slave desk will be cut down or extended to the step number found in
the master board.
4.
The master desk always has to be switched OFF and ON last.
5.
The HOLD function will freeze the output of the desk. Changes can then be
made on the desk without those changes occuring on the stage. When
ready, those changes can be output from the desk by reducing the main
master to 0, and than back to 100 %.
Select the HOLD menu by pressing and holding the QUIT
button
The HOLD button freezes the output.
Now all changes on the desk can be made "invisibly". When you are ready,
the new stage scene can be faded in using the main master fader which
simultaniously deactivates the HOLD function.
By the HOLD OFF button the HOLD
function is deactivated immediately.

8.1 Master-Slave Operation
On the Master desk all functions will work as usual. On the slave desk only
the single channel faders and buttons work. All other functions of the slave
are remote controlled by the master desk. Each desk keeps its own output
on Socapex and DMX 512. The softpatch is done on both boards sepa-
rately. To send the control data of both desks to stage on one single DMX
cable, the two lines have to be combined via a separate unit, called DMX
Merger.
For working with Theatre Sequences, master and slave desks must be set
to the same mode before coupling!
8. Remote Control and Linking
Via MIDI two Lightcommander II desks can be linked in master-slave
operation or a show can be recorded to a MIDI sequencer.
