COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR User Manual
The COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR supports power linking. You can power link up to 18
products at 120 VAC, 31 products at 208 VAC, or 34 products at 230 VAC.
This product comes with a power input cord. This product does not come with a power
linking cable; however, a power linking cable is available as an option.
You can link the COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR to a DMX controller using a standard DMX
serial connection. If using other DMX-compatible products with the COLORado™ 1-TRI
TOUR, you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
The COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR uses a regular DMX data connection for the TOUR,
TR16., ARC.1, AR1.d, AR1.S, and HSV. channel DMX modes.

Introduction
· Refer to
Operation to learn how to configure the COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR to work
in these modes.
· The
DMX Values section will provide you with detailed information regarding the DMX
modes.
The Master/Slave mode allows a COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR (the "master product") to
control one or more COLORado™ 1-TRI TOURs (the "slave products") without a DMX
controller. One COLORado™ 1-TRI TOUR becomes the master product when running
an Auto or Custom program, or by being in Static mode.
You must configure each slave product's control panel to operate in Slave mode. During
Master/Slave operation, the slave products will operate in unison with the master
product.
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
product.
The Operation section of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure Master and Slave products.
Note: For optimum control of the 16-bit dimming channels in the TR16.
