Master/Slave Mode - Chauvet DJ GigBAR MOVE + ILS User Manual

Master/Slave Mode

The Master/Slave mode allows a single GigBAR MOVE + ILS product (the "master") to control the actions
of one or more GigBAR MOVE + ILS products (the "slaves") without the need of a DMX controller. The
master product will be set to operate in either standalone mode or with the RF remote, whereas the slave
products will be set to operate in slave mode. Once set and connected, the slave products will operate in
unison with the master product.
Configure the products as indicated below.
Slave products:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until SETUP shows on the display, then press <ENTER>.
2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select DFI, then press <ENTER>.
3. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select ON, then press <ENTER>.
4. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the receiving D-Fi channel, from 1–16.
5. Press <ENTER>.
6. Press <MENU> repeatedly until SLAVE shows on the display, then press <ENTER>.
7. Finish setting and connecting all the slave products.
Master product:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until SETUP shows on the display, then press <ENTER>.
2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select DFI, then press <ENTER>.

• Make sure that the slave products are configured to the same D-Fi channel as the
master product.
• Configure all the slave products before connecting the master to the daisy chain.
• Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave operation
because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.
