the bass range. If the music control should not work optimally, increase the volume or reduce the distance
between the sound source and the light effect unit.
• Press the button MENU so many times until the display shows [SNd], then press the button ENTER.

3.6 MASTER/SLAVE MODE

This mode will allow you to link up the units together without a controller. Choose a unit to function as the
Master. The unit must be the first unit in line; other units will work as slave with the same effect.
MASTER SETTINGS
• Use standard DMX cables to daisy chain your units together via the DMX connector on the rear of the
units. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture (see page 11).
• Set the master fixture to operate in either automatic or sound-active mode.
SLAVE SETTINGS
• Set the DMX address to [d001].
NOTE - The DMX address can be set from either the 2-channel or the 3-channel DMX personality.

3.7 LINKING

1. Connect the DMX OUT of the master unit via 3-pole XLR cable to the DMX IN of the first slave unit.
2. Connect the DMX OUT of the first slave unit to the DMX IN of the second slave unit, etc. until all units
are connected in a chain.
