HOW TO OPERATE THE UNIT

YOU CAN OPERATE THE UNIT IN 3 WAYS:
By master/slave with built-in preprogrammed functions
o
o By CA-8 easy controller
o By any universal DMX controller (1 & 3 channel DMX mode)
 MASTER/SLAVE WITH BUILT-IN PREPROGRAMMED FUNCTIONS:
Select this function when you want an instant show. By linking the units in master/slave connection, the
first unit will control the other units to give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. Its DMX
input will have nothing plugged into it, and its master-LED will be constantly on and sound-LED will flash to
the music.
Important! This function only works when the blackout mode in the menu of the master is set to
OFF, otherwise nothing will happen! Read more about this option in the "How to setup" paragraph.
 MASTER has 8 built-in shows: You can select
menu of the master.
 SLAVES have 2 working options: These units are set to slave mode (slave-LED is constantly on). In
order to create a great light show you can introduce contrast movements  In the menu of the slave
units you can go to option and select:
o  Normal slave: slave works in sync with the master.
 2 light show: slave works in opposite with the master.

 BY EASY CONTROLLER:
