Operation - American DJ Galaxian 3D User Instructions

Galaxian 3D
CAUTION IMPORTANT! When installing this projector, make sure
that it is mounted in a manner that prevents the audience from
looking directly into the beam, and the beam from striking the
audience.
Operating Modes: The Galaxian 3D can operate in two different
modes. In each mode you can run the fixture as a stand alone
fixture or in a master/slave confiugration. This next section will
detail the differences in the operating modes.
• Sound Active mode -
The fixture will react to sound, chasing through the built-in programs.
• DMX control mode -
This function will allow you to control each individual fixtures traits
with a standard DMX-512 controller such as the Elation
Designer.
™
Master-Slave Operation
This function will allow you to link up to 16
units together and operate without a controller. The units will be sound
activated. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the controlling
unit and the others will react to the controlling units programs. Any unit
can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. Using approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units togeth-
er via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the
Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector
is the output. The first unit in the chain (master) will use the female
XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male
XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina-
tor at the last fixture.
2. On the Master unit find your desired show and set that show by
pressing the ENTER button.
3. On the slave units
tap the MENU button until "SLND" is dis-
played, and Press ENTER. Choose either
press ENTER. Please see page 10 for more info.
4. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
