Master/Slave Mode - Chauvet DJ Intimidator Spot 160 ILS User Manual

Master/Slave Mode

The Master/Slave mode allows a single Intimidator Spot 160 ILS product (the "master") to control the
actions of one or more Intimidator Spot 160 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 IRC-6, 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.

1. Press <MENU>.
2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select Run Mode.

because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.
