In the Master/Slave mode, you may run the master via the auto programmes having been set in the
master or via sound activation through MIC inside the master, and the slaves will run synchronously
with the master.
In the Master/Slave mode, when the master is a combination of setup 3 (sound activation) and 4
(auto programmes), the projectors will run auto programmes.
When the master runs in auto programmes, the master’
s red indicator is constantly on but the slaves’
red indicators flash.
Each MOON must be given a DMX start address so that the correct projector responds to the correct
control signals. This DMX start address is the channel number from which the projector starts to
“listen” to the digital control information being sent out from the controller. The MOON has 6 channels,
so set the No.1 projector’
s address 001, No.2 projector’
s address 007, No.3 projector’
s address 013,
No.4 projector’
s address 019, and so on.
Certainly, you may use formulation: address=channels x (projector No. –1) +1
For example, for the No.4 projector’
s start address, you should calculate according to formulation: 6 x
(4 – 1) +1 = 19. So you set the No.4 projector start address 019.
Connect the controller’
s output to the first fixture’
s input, and connect the first fixture’
s output to the
second fixture’
s input. The rest may be deduced by analogy. Eventually connect the last fixture’
s
output to a DMX terminator as shown in the figure below.
When a DMX 512 signal is received the red indicator will flash. When not receiving a DMX signal the
green and red indicators will be off.
