Master-Slave Operation (Auto Program or Music Control): This function allows

up to 16 fixtures to be linked together to provide a synchronized light show without

the use of a controller. Only use this when linking several Event MH together for use

without a controller. Any fixture can act as a "Master or a "Slave."

Using DMX cables, daisy chain your fixtures together. See "Understanding

DMX Section 7/Page 19.

•

For the unit functioning as the "Master" unit follow the same procedures

listed in the previous section "Stand-Alone section.

•

For the "Slave" units, access the "Set To Slave" settings in the "Function

Mode" menu and assign each slave fixture a designation (Slave 1, Slave 2,

Slave 3...etc).

10.3 Universal DMX Control: This function allows you to use a universal DMX-512

controller such as the Elation

control head movement, the color wheel, the shutter (strobe), and all other DMX traits.

A DMX controller allows you to create unique programs tailored to your individual

needs. The Event Brick™ uses up to 15 DMX channels. See page 38 for detailed

description of the DMX traits. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up

procedures beginning on page 19 as well as the set-up specifications that are included

with your DMX controller. Use the controller's faders to control the various DMX fixture

traits. This will allow you to create your own programs.

•

Follow the instruction on page 26 to set the DMX address.

•

Be sure to use a terminator on the last fixture, especially for longer cable

runs (more than a 100 feet).

•

For help operating in DMX, consult the user manual that came with your

DMX controller.
