Varytec Giga Bar 5 LED RGBW 10x45 User Manual Download Page 22

If the unit is in DMX mode and a DMX controller is connected and turned on, a green dot

behind 

‘DMX’

 lights in the display. If the unit is in DMX mode, but without a turned-on DMX

controller connected, the dot behind 

‘DMX’

 lights up red.

When you configure a group of devices in master/slave mode, the first unit will control the

other units for an automatic, sound-activated, synchronized show. This function 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.
