will control the others to give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. This function is good when you want an instant show. Any fixture can act as a Master or as a Slave 16‐light show: In slave mode, slave 1 means the unit works as master, slave 2 means 2‐light show, slave 3 means 3‐light show and so on, In order to create a great light show, you can set the second unit to slave 2 to get contrast movement to each other, even if you have two units only. 4.2. Easy Controller (by CA‐8) The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By connecting to the 1/4” microphone jack of the first unit, you will find that the remote controller on the first unit will control all the other units in Stand by, and Mode selection.

Page 14: Dmx 512 Connection
6. DMX 512 Connection The DMX512 is widely used in intelligent lighting control, with a maximum of 512 channels. 1. Connect the fixture together in a “daisy chain” with the XLR plug cable from the output of the fixture to the input of the next fixture. The cable cannot be branched or split to a “Y” cable. Inadequate or damaged cables, bad solder joints or corroded connectors can easily distort the signal and shut down the system 2. The DMX output and input connectors pass‐through to maintain the DMX circuit when one of the units’ power is disconnected. 3. At last fixture, the DMX cable has to be terminated with a terminator to reduce signal errors. Solder a 120‐ohm 1/4W resistor between pin 2(DMX‐) and pin 3(DMX+) into a 3‐pin XLR‐plug and plug it in the DMX‐output of the last fixture. 4. Each lighting fixture needs to have an address set to receive the data sent by the controller. The address number is between 0‐511 (usually 0 & 1 are equal to 1). 5. 3 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (‐), Pin 3: Positive signal (+) 5 pin XLR: Pin 1: GND, Pin 2: Negative signal (‐), Pin 3: Positive signal (+), Pin4/5: not used. -

If not, check DMX connectors, cables to see if link properly. 2. If the DMX LED is on and no response to the channel, check the address settings and DMX polarity. 3. If you have intermittent DMX signal problems, check the pins on connectors or on PCB of the fixture or the previous one. ... -
