Connect the supplied XLR plug to waterproof socket lead to the DMX input lead of the first HIPAR can in line
to be controlled. Connect further HIPAR cans from the DMX through of the first can to the DMX input of the
second can and DMX through of the second can to the DMX input of the third can etc. until all HIPAR cans are
connected in a daisy-chain.
Connect the XLR plug to a DMX controller, ensuring that this connection is protected from the elements.

Master dimmer setting affects the overall output in any mode.
A custom static colour can be mixed manually on channels 2 to 5 and strobe setting via channel 6.
Macro settings are similar in operation to the stand-alone auto settings with static preset colours,
auto sequences, strobe and sound activated programs all accessible from the setting of channel 8.
The speed of the selected effect (macro) is determined by the setting of channel 7.
