Remotely controllable functions

Colour-wheel

The Club Barrel contains a colour-wheel with 8 colours and white. It is possible to rotate the colour-wheel
continuously at different speeds ( “Rainbow effect” in both directions).

Shutter/Dimmer/Strobe

The dimming (0-100%) is provided by a simple mechanical shutter unit. This unit may also be used for
strobe effect (1-10 flashes per second).

Stand-alone Mode

The fixtures on a data-link are not connected to the controller, but can execute pre-set programs, which can
be different for every fixture.
To set the program to be played, see the page 10. Stand-alone operation” can be applied to a single fixture
(the fixture may be set to the master/slave mode or controller mode) or to multiple fixture operating
synchronously.
For synchronous operation of multiple fixtures the fixtures must all be connected on a data-link and one of
them is set as a master (master mode) and the rest as slaves (slave mode). The DMX address of all the
slaves are assigned to 

 

and on that particular slave address only one fixture can be connected. To the

fixture as the master or slave, see “Addressing” (menu 

 ).

If the master fixture resets or runs a test (program), all slaves will execute these acts too.
You can’t play or edit any program on a slave, if the master is switched on and connected to the
master/slave chain.
Note: Disconnect the fixtures from the DMX controller before master/slave operating, otherwise data
collisions can occur and the fixtures will not work properly!
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm ) into the input of the master fixture and into
the output of the last slave fixture in the data-link, in order to ensure proper transmission on the data link.
From the master’s control panel it is possible to control any slave in a master/slave chain.

The Slave device must be set to A001 or A002
A001: the slave device will act as a clone device
A002: the slave device will act the same with Pan and Tilt, gobos and colors will not be the same
