Master/Slave Connectivity

The Master/Slave mode allows an COLORado PXL Bar 16 (the master) to control one or more
COLORado PXL Bar 16 products (the slaves) without a DMX controller. One COLORado PXL Bar 16
becomes the master when running an auto program, or by being in Static mode.
You must configure each slave's control panel to operate in Slave mode. During Master/Slave operation,
the slaves will operate in unison with the master.
DO NOT connect a DMX controller to products operating in Master/Slave mode. The DMX
controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master.
