Ovation C-805FC User Manual Rev. 3

Master/Slave Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a Ovation C-805FC (the master) to control one or more Ovation C-805FC
products (the slaves) without a DMX controller. One Ovation C-805FC becomes the master when running
in auto show or VCW modes.
You must configure each slave’s control panel to operate in Slave mode. During Master/Slave operation,
the slaves will operate in unison with the master.
Remote Device Management (RDM)
Remote Device Management, or RDM, is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate
bi-directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller’s User Manual or with the
manufacturer as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The Ovation C-805FC supports RDM protocol
that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options.
