the built in programs.

nel mode or 12 DMX channel mode.
Master-Slave Operation:
This function will allows you to link units together to run in a Master-
Slave mode. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the con-
trolling 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, only
one unit can be programmed to act as the “Master.”
Master-Slave Connections and Settings:
1. Daisy chain your units via the XLR connector on the rear of
the unit. Use standard XLR cables to link your units together. Re-
member 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.
2. You will also have to link the power cords to each other, as you
did with the XLR cables.
3. Using the Master unit, choose your desired mode and connect
the “Slave” unit or units.
4. Set the “Slave” unit(s) to the first address mode. So all “Slave”
units display “1001”. They will now follow the “Master” unit.
