Quick Start Stand Alone Mode

Connect  all  your  units  together  via  the  XLR  connector.  You  can 

connect up  to  16  units  together in Master/Slave  mode. The  master 

unit will run the slaves to the masters built in programs and internal 

microphone. Plug in all units. When the Pocket Scan™ is first turned 

on, it will run through an internal self test where it moves all motors to 

their zero position. After the self test the units will react to sound, and 

chase to the several built in programs.
