In Master/Slave mode one Nexus™ 4x4 product (the master) controls one or more Nexus™
4x4 products (the slaves) without a DMX controller. The master Nexus™ 4x4 is set to an auto
program, static color, or color macro and sends DMX signals to the slaves. During
Master/Slave operation, the slave products operate in unison with the master. For more
information, see
Master/Slave
.
•
Do not connect a DMX controller to the DMX chain when operating Nexus™ 4x4
products in Master/Slave mode, because signals from the master and the DMX
controller will conflict and cause erratic behavior in all the products.
•
Master/Slave operates via DMX ports only. The Neutrik® etherCON® ports cannot be
used for Master/Slave mode.
For more information about DMX, see the CHAUVET® DMX primer, available at

.
Ethernet connections link Nexus™ 4x4 to routers and each other through their Neutrik®
etherCON® ports. Ethernet connections are for running TCP/IP-based control system, such as
Art-Net™ and Kling-Net. All Neutrik® etherCON® ports can be either input or output ports,
and panels can be linked together, but the start of each chain must be a router port.
Do not connect Nexus™ 4x4 to the WAN port of the router.
NOTE: Do Not Use WAN Port On Router!
