Introduction: The Mega Tri Bar™ is part of American DJ’s continuing pursuit for creating high quality affordable intelligent fixtures. The Mega Tri Bar™ is a DMX intelligent LED color bar. This wash can be used in a stand alone mode or connected in a Master/Slave configuration. The unit can also be controlled via DMX controller.
SET UP Power Supply: The Mega Tri Bar™ contains an electronic ballast, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into the power source.
