Dmx Operation - Future light PRO Slim PAR-6 COB RGB User Manual

Interconnecting several devices (master/slave operation)
Several devices may be interconnected (max. 32). Then all slave units can be synchronized and controlled
with the master unit without the need for a DMX controller. The devices must be set to the corresponding
operating modes.
Connect the DMX output of the master unit to the DMX input of the first slave unit. Then connect the DMX
output of the first slave unit to the DMX input of the second slave unit, etc. until all units have been
connected in a chain. Make sure the master unit is the first in the chain. Do not connect a DMX controller to
the DMX input of the master unit.
Set the desired operating mode for the master-device, as described in chapter menu structure. Set the DMX
address 001 for all slave-devices. The interconnected devices will now operate synchronously.

DMX operation

Setting the number of DMX channels and the DMX starting address
For operation with a controller with DMX512 protocol, the device is equipped with 7 control channels.
However, it can also be switched to a mode with 3 or 5 channels if different functions are required. To be
able to operate the device with a DMX controller, the DMX starting address must be set. The starting
address depends upon which DMX controller is being used. Please refer to the controller's documentation.
1 Press the MENU button so many times until *CH is indicated on the display. Confirm with the ENTER
button.
2 The display indicates 3 CH (3 DMX channels), 5 CH (5 DMX channels) or 7 CH (7 DMX channels). Use
the buttons UP and DOWN to select the desired number of DMX channels. Confirm with the ENTER
button.
3 For the DMX starting address press the MENU button until A*** is shown on the display. Use the buttons
UP and DOWN to set the address. Confirm with the ENTER button.
4 A segment will blink when DMX signals are being received. If no control signals are available, the display
will blink.
Note: Please make sure that you do not have any overlapping channels in order to control each device
correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX chain. If several devices are addressed
similarly, they will work synchronically.
