    through the several built in programs.  You can also use the  

    optional  Pocket  Scan/RF  Remote  Control  to  set  blackout, 

    strobe or slow scan mode.

• Master/Slave mode - You can daisy chain up to 16 units 

    together to get a synchronized light show that will react to 

    sound chasing through several built in programs.

• DMX control mode - This function will allow you to control 

    each individual fixtures traits with a standard  DMX 512 

    controller such as the American DJ Show Designer.

TM

Stand Alone Mode:

The  Pocket  Scan

TM

  has  a  sophisticated  built-in  light  show  that 

will run to sound when there is no DMX signal present. Plug the 

fixture  in  and  it  will  chase  through  its  programs  via  sound.  You 

can  also  use  the  optional  wireless  remote  to  blackout,  strobe, 

or slow scan the units.

Master-Slave Operation:

 

This function will allow you to link up to 16 units together to run 

in  a  Master-Slave  mode.  In  Master-Slave  operation  one  unit 

will  act  as  the  controlling  unit  and  the  others  will  react  to  the 

controlling units built-in programs. Any unit can act as a Master 

or  as  a  Slave  however,  units  must  be  programmed  to  act  as 

“Masters”  or  as  “Slaves.”  There  are  two  Master-Slave  modes, 

Fast and Slow. 

Master-Slave Connections:

1.   Daisy chain your units via the XLR connector on the top of 

      the unit. Use standard XLR microphone cables to link your 

      units together. Remember that 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.

3.   Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth 

      every 20 days.
