Using master mode to drive other units
This unit can control any number of other Pixel Range fix-
tures via DMX links, without the need for a control desk.
1 Set this unit as master (PERS > DATA > MAST) and
ensure all others are set to slave (PERS > DATA >
SLAV). Connect all fixtures via DMX daisy-chain.
2 Set each slave to Mode > DMX.
3 Set each slave DMX address (using ADDR > DMX) ac-
cording to the following:
18 cells are output in groups of 3 DMX channels to give
RGB values per cell (54 channels in total). Set the ad-
dress of each slave fixture according to which of the 18
cells you want them to appear within, or to begin with
(for multi-cell fixtures): (A001 for cell 1, A004 for cell 2,
... A052 for cell 18). Set RGBA slave fixtures to 3 chan-
nel mode (using PERS > RES > 3ch).
4 Set the master to Mode > EF m (the master unit's DMX
address is ignored). On the master, choose the required
effects to display and send to the slave fixtures using
PROG > C1 and C2.

Troubleshooting

Fixture remains at blackout when illumination expected
• The
indicator should be lit - if not, check the
input power and fuse (see below).
• If live DMX is connected, the
be lit - if not, check the DMX cable and the desk output.
• Check that the selected MODE matches the desk person-
ality being used.
• The master intensity channel for the current mode may
be set at zero. For EX61 and DMX modes, check the
setting of PERS > MINT. For EX61 mode, MINT must
be set ON.
• Ensure that only one DMX device in the chain is set as
master.
• Standalone chase effects: Effects programmed using
PROG > C1 and C2 but the fixture is not in MODE >
EF M mode. Check also that PROG > LEVL is not
set at zero.
• Standalone RGB mixing: Colour values set within MAN
section but the fixture is not in MODE > MANU mode.
Fuse access
The single fuse is located at the rear of the fixture near to the
DMX input connector. Use a small flat blade screw driver to
twist the fuse holder anticlockwise until the carrier can be
extracted to reveal the fuse.
Fuse type: 20mm 2A (T2AH)
