Dmx Control Mode; Configuring Thrusters™ For Individual Dmx Control - Chauvet Thruster User Manual

DMX Control Mode

The Thruster™ can be operated from a DMX controller. This control mode environment gives the
user the greatest flexibility when it comes to customizing or creating a show by enabling the control of
each individual trait of the fixture and each fixture independently.
Several Thrusters™ can also be controlled as "One Device". The benefit of a "One Device" setup is
that you harness the power of the built in programs and its ability to run chases across a specified
total of units. In short, a typical strobe chase that starts at one of the first flash pots of the master unit
will continue on and throughout all linked fixtures until the very end in which case it will repeat the
loop. This is sequenced and intended, so long as you have enumerated and positioned each linked
Thruster™ in an ascending numerical order, the running chase will appear consistent and organized.
Up to 31 Thrusters™ can be controlled as "One Device"
