8 - OPERATION VIA DATAMASTER
The unit uses a DATAMASTER for configuration purposes. The diagram below sows how to connect the
DATAMASTER to this product. This connection will control multiple products at the same time.
To set different Stand Alone mode on different product, you must connect the DATAMASTER to each
product, individually.
However, by using the DATAMASTER, you may address each product in the daisy chain to a different
DMX address by using the RDM function without the need connect to each individual product.
Important: The DATAMASTER must be used to configure this product.
MUSIC & LIGHTS suggests that you connect no more than 11 units in this mode and keep the total
distance to less than 60 m (197 ft). Otherwise, you might need to use an RDM optically isolated signal
amplifier.
