M A S T E R / S L A V E O P E R A T I O N
Multiple Ego X Series fixtures of the same type can be connected together
on a data link for “master/slave” operation, in which one fixture acts as
master and sends out trigger signals to slave fixtures.
Note that different types of fixture cannot be mixed in master/slave
operation. Ego X4 fixtures cannot control X5 or X6 fixtures, for example.
The procedure for connecting the data link is described in “ Installing a data
link for master/slave operation ’ on page 12.
S e t t i n g s l a v e f i x t u r e s
Slaves can be set to either copy the master behavior exactly or respond to
trigger signals but behave differently from the master. Setting random
movement gives synchronized but unrelated effects compared with the
master. Setting inverted movement gives a “mirror image” of the master.
To set a fixture as slave, set all the fixture’s DIP-switch pins to OFF. The
slave will now copy exactly the behavior of the master fixture.
To set a slave fixture to respond to trigger signals but behave differently
from the master:
1. Set all DIP-switch pins to OFF.
2. Set DIP-switch pin 10 to ON.
3. Depending on your Ego X Series model, set either random or inverted
movement options as listed below.

E g o X 5 s l a v e o p t i o n s
• Set pin 6 to ON for random color/gobo wheel movement.
• Set pin 7 to ON for random mirror tunnel movement.
• Set pin 8 to ON for inverted color/gobo wheel movement.
• Set pin 9 to ON for inverted mirror tunnel movement.
