Operating Modes:
The ON-X can operate in three different modes.
In each mode you can run the fixture as a stand alone fixture or in a
master/slave confiugration. This next section will detail the differences
in the operating modes.
Universal DMX Control:
This function allows you to use a univer-
sal DMX-512 controller to control the chases and patterns, dimmer
and strobe. A DMX controller allows you to create unique programs
tailored to your individual needs.
1. The ON-X has 6 DMX Channel modes; 2 Channels, 9 Channels,
11 Channels, 12 Channels 16 Channels, & 18 Channels. See
pages 17-26 for detailed description of the DMX values and traits.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up procedures
on pages 5-7 as well as the set-up specifications that are includ-
ed with your DMX controller.
3. Use the controller’s faders to control the various DMX fixture traits.
4. This will allow you to create your own programs.
5. Follow the instructions on page 9 to select your desired DMX
channel mode and to set the DMX address.
6. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on
the last fixture.
7. For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual included
with your DMX controller.

This mode allows either single unit or several
units linked together, to run to the beat of the music.
1. Press the MENU button until “SOUN” is displayed, and press
ENTER.
2. Press the UP or DOWN button so that “ON” is displayed. The unit
will now run to the beat of the music.
3. The sound sensitivity can be adjusted by pressing the MENU
button until “SENS” is displayed, and then press ENTER. Use the

With this feature you can connect the fixtures to one another
using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can
be connected is 15 fixtures maximum for 120V and 28 fixtures
maximum for 240V. After the maximum fixtures has been reached
you will need to use a new power outlet. They must be the same
fixtures. DO NOT mix fixtures.
ON-X Power Cord Daisy Chain
Master-Slave Operation
This function will allow you to link up to
16 units together and operate without a controller. In a Master-Slave
set up one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will react
to the controlling units programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a
Slave.
1. Using approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units togeth-
er via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the
Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector
is the output. The first unit in the chain (master) will use the female
XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male
XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina-
tor at the last fixture.
2.
For the Master unit
press the MENU button until “SLND” is
displayed, and press ENTER. Set the unit to “MAST” and press
ENTER.
3. Next set the Master to your desired operating mode.
4.
For
the slave units
press the MENU button until “SLND” is dis-
played, and Press ENTER. Set the slave units to either “SL 1” or
“SL 2”.
5. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
