Create all connections while the device is off. Use the shortest possible high-quality
cables for all connections. Take care when running the cables to prevent tripping
hazards.
Connect the DMX input of the device to the DMX output of a DMX controller or
another DMX device. Connect the output of the first DMX device to the input of the
second one, and so on to form a daisy chain. Always ensure that the output of the
last DMX device in the daisy chain is terminated with a resistor (110 Ω,
¼
W).
When the device and the DMX controller are in operation and a DMX signal is
received at the input, the status LED
[DMX]
lights up.
When you configure a group of devices in master/slave mode, the first unit will con‐
trol the other units for an automatic, sound-activated, synchronized show. This func‐
tion is ideal when you want to start a show immediately. Connect the DMX output of
the master device to the DMX input of the first slave device. Then connect the DMX
output of the first slave device to the DMX input of the second slave device and so
on.
