Modes of Operation
Your Talent Sound & Lighting fixture may be operated as a stand-alone device that
runs on pre-programmed routines or sound activation, in master/slave mode with
other devices, or via an external DMX512 controller. In DMX mode it is configurable to
be controlled by 7 or 14 channels of an outboard DMX controller.
Besides sound activation and automatic modes of stand-alone operation, there are
two main ways to control the fixture:
A. Universal DMX controller
This fixture’s DMX address can be set remotely by a universal DMX controller.
First, you need to program two scenes into a chase, and then link the fixtures to the
universal DMX controller. When you run the chase, the fixtures in the chain will set the
series DMX address automatically. Each lighting fixture needs to have an address set
when in DMX mode, to receive the data sent by the controller. The address number is
between 0-511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1).
B. Master/Slave operation
The fixture allows you to link as many as 16 fixtures together and operate without
a controller. In Master/Slave mode, the first fixture will control the others to give an
automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good for when
you want an instant performance. The first, or master, fixture’s DMX input will have
nothing connected to it. Its output connects to the slave fixtures.
