DMX CONTROL

Universal DMX Control: This function allows you to use a universal DMX-512 controller to control the colors,
chases, dimmer and strobe. A DMX controller allows you to create unique programs tailored to your individual
needs.
1. The Penta Pix has 5 DMX Modes; a 4 Channel Mode, 8 Channel Mode, 11 Channel Mode, 20 Channel
Mode & 27 Channel Mode. See pages 10-14 for a detailed description of the DMX traits.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up procedures on pages 5-6 as well as the set-up
specifications that are included with your DMX controller.
3. Use the controller's faders to control the various DMX fixture traits. This will allow you to create your own
programs.
4. Follow the instructions on page 7 to select your desired DMX Mode and to set the DMX address. After you
have selected your DMX mode and set the address, then connect your DMX controller.
5. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on the last fixture.
6. For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual included with your DMX controller.

MASTER-SLAVE SET UP

Master-Slave Set Up: This function will allow you to link up to 16 units together and operate without a
controller. In a Master-Slave set up one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will react to the
controlling units programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. Using appropriate XLR cables, daisy chain your units together via the XLR connector on the rear of the
units. Remember the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector is the output. The first
unit in the chain (master) will use the female XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male
XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture.
2. Set the Master unit to your desired operational mode.
3. On the slave units press the MODE button until "SLAVE MODE" is displayed.
4. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
