Master/Slave Mode
The master/slave mode allows for connecting several devices to a single master device in a daisy chain.
All slave devices will then work synchronously with the master device. The first device in the daisy chain
functions as the master device.
To set the devices to master/slave mode:
1.
Unplug any connection from the DMX input
[6]
of the master device (the first device in the chain).
2.
Connect the DMX input of the first slave device to the DMX output
[9]
of the master device.
3.
Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave devices to the DMX output of the previous slave
device.
4.
On the master device, press MENU to open the menu.
5.
Select <4-CH>, <6-CH> or <10CH> to select one of the channel modes.
6.
The slave devices will automatically follow the master device upon connection.

DMX Mode
This mode allows you to control the device by any universal DMX controller.
All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the
signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to “listen” to
the DMX controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole group of devices or an
individual address can be set for every device.
When all devices have the same address, all the units will “listen” to the control signal on one
particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices
simultaneously. If you set individual addresses, each device will “listen” to a separate channel
number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the device in question.
