master. Every time the master changes to its next pre-programmed scene, the slave fixtures
change to their next pre-programmed scene at the same time.
Note the following:
•
Although scene changes in master and slave fixtures all occur at the same time, scenes do not
have to be identical. You can program different effects in the standalone scenes of different
fixtures.
•
Each fixture displays its own pre-programmed standalone show until it reaches its last scene,
then it starts the show sequence again and continues in a loop. If all fixtures have the same
number of scenes in their shows, they will all start shows in synch. If the standalone shows in
different fixtures have different numbers of scenes, the fixtures will restart their shows at
different times relative to each other.
•
If no controller is connected to the first fixture on the link, you can improve the quality of the
data signal sent to slave fixtures by connecting a DMX termination plug (a plug with a 120 Ohm
resistor across data hot and data cold) to the data input of the first fixture.
•
DMX and RDM signals will override standalone operation in both the master and the slave
fixtures. This means that standalone operation is only possible if no DMX signal is present.
•
You must set only the first fixture on the link to be the master fixture. Set all the other fixtures
as slaves. If you set more than one fixture to act as master, fixtures may have unexpected
behavior.
Setting up master/slave operation
Set up master/slave operation as follows:
1. Program a standalone show in each fixture as described under ‘Programming a standalone
show’ on page 21.
2. On each fixture, access the control menu and select FIXTURE CONFIG. Press ENTER.
3. Check that all fixtures are set to SLAVE. On the first fixture on the link – and
only
on this
fixture – select MASTER and press ENTER. Press MENU to return to the FIXTURE CONFIG
menu.
4. On each fixture, scroll to OFFLINE MODE and press ENTER. Then select RUN SHOW and
press ENTER. Finally, press and hold MENU to exit the control menus.
5. Fixtures will now run standalone shows synchronized with the master fixture’s standalone
shows whenever the fixtures are powered on and not receiving a DMX control signal.
Offline mode – behavior when no DMX or Master signal is received
There are three options for setting how a fixture behaves in offline mode, i.e. when it is not
receiving a control signal from either a DMX controller or a master fixture:
•
RUN SHOW: Fixture executes its standalone show (fixture must be set to MASTER).
- If the fixture is set to MASTER and it does not receive a control signal, the fixture will
execute the scenes in its pre-programmed standalone show (see ‘Programming a
standalone show’ on page 21). It will also send a signal to any fixtures that are connected
to it and set to SLAVE instructing them to run their standalone shows.
- If the fixture is set to SLAVE and it does not receive a control signal, it will black out until it
receives a control signal.
•
DMX LAST STATE: Fixture holds and displays the last received DMX command (fixture must
be set to MASTER).
- If the fixture is set to MASTER and it does not receive a control signal, it will continue to
obey the last DMX command that it received.
- If the fixture is set to SLAVE and it does not receive a control signal, it will black out until it
receives a control signal.
