Master/Slave
Mode
CORE™ 3x3 User Manual Rev. 1
The Master/Slave mode allows a single CORE™ 3x3 unit (the "master") to control the
actions of one or more CORE™ 3x3 units (the "slaves") without the need of a DMX
controller. The master unit will be set to operate in Master mode 1 (and in either an Auto
program or Sound-Active mode), while the slave units will be set to operate in Slave
mode 1. Once set and connected, the slave units will operate in unison with the master
unit, each slave duplicating the master exactly.
Configure the units as indicated below.
Slave units:
1.
Press <MENU> on the slave units until SLA shows on the display.
2.
Press <ENTER> and SLA1–SLA4 shows on the display.
3.
Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select SLA1 (Slave mode 1).
4.
Press <ENTER>.
5.
Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave units to the DMX output of the
previous slave unit.
Master unit:
1.
Press <MENU> on the master unit until SEnd shows on the display.
2.
Press <ENTER> and either SEd1 or SEd4 shows on the display.
3.
Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select SEd1 (Master mode 1).
4.
Press <ENTER>.
5.
Set the master unit to operate in either Auto program or Sound-Active mode.
6.
Make the master unit the first unit in the DMX daisy chain.
·
Configure all the slave units before connecting the master unit to the DMX
daisy chain.
·
Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave
operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the
master unit.
·
Do not connect more than 31 slave units to the master unit.
